In a high scoring evening at the Chequers Inn, Ash the home side beat the
Market Inn B 4-2.
Chris Saville (13,230) opened well for the home side, scoring consistently
high breaks, but Alan Farra (11,920) hit back immediately with an impressive
opening break of 11,820. The Chequers regained the lead again at 2-1 after
the singles, as Neville Potts (5,250) won against the break.
The first doubles saw the Chequers increase their lead with a win by Saville
and Wack Sampson (4,630), but again the visitors hit back through Farra &
Gareth Butcher (5,400) thanks to a decisive late break by Farra, before Tim
Bourner & Saville (6,520) sealed the win in the last doubles game.

Big 6 - 0 win for the P&H boys puts them firmly in the driving seat in the run-in for the title. The two sides in contention, Chequers & P&H play each other twice in rearranged fixtures, with a final shoot-out likely on the Chequers table. Dependent on what the Chequers do against the Magnet on Tuesday it looks like they, realistically, will have to win both encounters. A draw and a big win might do for the Chequers, but they are behind on match wins, so a tie will not be good enough.
Interesting climax!
Either way it's been a good season with no one team running away with it. Market 'B' have had a tremendous season following their promotion, only faltering at the last with two defeats.
Good season and a tremendous performance with the last five wins on the bounce from Craig (Taxi Boy) Carlson beating Stu Richardson, Kevin Kay, John Addley, Alan Farra and Mike Callanan - four of the leagues top ten players!

Sav Thanks Chris, but have to mention that I didn't beat John Addley - he opened with a 10k break against me!....(the other one was Gary Clarke on their table). |
