Doubles last 16 match report

Post date: Feb 11, 2009 11:46:56 AM

2 Harry teams were in action.

Rocket and Wobbly had the home draw, and played a team from the yacht. The first games were an 'all action' type of game. Sorry did i say 'all action' i meant 'long tedious' with the 2 games lasting over an hour! Both went to the visitors so the slow play most of worked to their advantage.

The yacht team of Gary Underhill and John Swale then went on to take the nights spoils by dispatching Railways B team who won the other side of the draw. Best we not mention Darrens poor display in the doubles.. Damn i just did!

Other Harry doubles action was happening at the Erith snooker club where you can normally catch a few Harry Dogs gracing the green baize in the gentlemans sport of snooker. Pinkie and Mop this time were seen on the bar pool table.

First game of night saw a close match between owner Kevin Mawson (playing without partner Martin Unwin! due to him being in Goa! Nice.. ) and Rob (i think) playing the Railway B boys of Billy and Steve. It went 2-1 to Railway B team with Rob throwing away a glorious chance to take the win.

Mop and Pinkie then burst into action by quickly dispatching the Beanie wearing Drayman pairing 2-0, and then continued that form to Billy and Steve's game by taking that 2-0 as well. Both Great Harry dogs were on form and hardly missed a shot.

The last 4 doubles left now are:

Mop/Pinkie Great Harry

Gary/John Yacht

Alan/Phil (My Nemesis) Railway A

Chris Clement and Rob Fulker
