Stout House Zeds home to Dun Horse
With the possibility of Colin having to leave early, the Captains agreed to start with the fourth game on the draw.
Colin missed the break to claim 100 for his first visit, Vernon answered with about 400. Both players pushed balls around the table for a bit before Vernon got the run of the ball and rattled in a tidy 8k. I thought he didn’t like the table! ;)
Grant started the next game with a very steady 3k. Junky didn’t respond, allowing Grant to chalk up another 1k. Both players went to snooze mode for a bit before Junky got the run of the ball, unfortunately too late to save the frame.
Last minute sub Lee went too soft on the break, Silverfox responded with just under 1k. He sportingly let Lee back on the table a couple more times before settling down to play the table out for a total of just over 12k. Well played Jim. 8-)
Dave up next against Dorsal yet again! Dave messed up the break, Dorsal didn’t do much better. A scrappy battle ensued with both players squandering chances before Dave got a break going with a few minutes to go and finished the table for 2K. Phew!
Scott and Richard played the deciding frame almost identically to the previous one. Frustratingly opportunities came and went. Scott managed to rack up a score of about 2k right at the end to take the frame and the match for the visitors.
A decent result for the ‘Bottom of Div2’ Dun against the ‘Top of Div1’ Zeds in a season that has been sparse on wins thus far. The last two games could have gone either way so luck with us tonight.
Stout House Z 2 Dun Horse 3
Jim Greensted 12050 Lee Tugwell 130 Andy Finn 1570 Dave Simmons 4050 Richard Plaw 1890 Scott Hope 3820 Vernon Sparkes 9470 Colin Bolton 470 John Miller 2400 Grant Hope 4490
A good evening with decent food and plenty of banter as always. Dorsal successfully forgot to forget to turn his car lights off. There’s a first! :D

Roffey Club V Alfold Club
The away team arrived a player down, but not short of cheek. A warm welcome from the Roffey lads is always guaranteed to get the night off to a good start.
First up Pete v Robin. Rob started quite well knocking up a 1K break. Pete's first visit to the table saw him take down the white peg with the red ball so a 30p fine (was going to be an expensive night). Rob kept chipping away building up a lead, while Pete struggled to get going, that was until a few minutes to go when he hit 3K as the bar dropped. He calculated what he needed, but unfortunately not correctly as he left himself 200 short. first blood to Alfold
L Cable (Sorry cant remember first name ::)) V Garry. Gaz started of steadily and put a few points on the table. Mr Cable really was not getting the rub of the green and could not get going. Gaz plodding on building up a reasonable lead. The frustration was beginning to show on poor Mr Cable who near the end of the match plowed through the black peg, killing the game off. Alfold winners again!!!!!!
Third game saw Dave take on the rookie Trevor who managed to find the break to put a few points on the board. Dave's first visit to the table was not very fruitful and Trevor was able to add some more much needed points. The table got messy at the back of the 50 hole on the left, meaning both players could not score many points, until Dave eventually got the break to push into the lead. A scrappy game, one Dave thought was awful, but the rookie took some heart from, even though he lost. 1 - 2 to Alfold.
Fourth and final game saw the two experienced player from both teams head to head. Mick V Malcolm (The Major). Major started quite well hitting just over 1K, Mick who had one eye on the Liverpool game on TV, did not focus and allowed Major back on the table without scoring a point. Major built a good 4K lead and played a tactical game leaving difficult shots for Mick, who continued to fail to get the break back. Then it was over (Thats the football), with 5 minutes of table time left Mick got his head down and rattled in as cool 5K to snatch the game from Major :(. 2 -2
As no fifth player Roffey claimed the final game to win 3 - 2.
As a gesture of good will Trevor offered Twiggy a game and in the process emptied his pocket of change as he pegged out twice. Adding to the Roffey fine pot has ensured a beer at finals night (is'nt that right lads ;))
P Fish 3670 R Burgess 3980 L Cable 0000 G Fishburn 3930 D Cable 2890 T Goacher 1890 M Faire 5000 M Greening 4250 Twiggy - Walk over
A smashing night and thanks to all the Roffey Team for being so hospitable. Great sandwiches and nibbles and the beer weren't half too bad too.

A case of mistaken identity, there being more than one 'Sparky' ? (V.Sparkes being the 'imposter') ;D
