Match Report v Dukes Head

Post date: Mar 23, 2011 1:34:00 PM

We needed to bounce back after our away loss to the Oak in our last outing.

Back at home we were hoping for more success.

Captain Power up first and after his dry break, he was going to be fighting a losing battle to the good potter Simon from Dukes head. Simon managed to close out the game well. Not a great a start.

Rocket played landlord Jim. A poor shot by Jim let Rocket slip in a nick the win. Moppy manged to sneak a win in a game he probably should of lost.

With Master8'ers on a roll, Wobbly continued the momentum and gave Erith a 3-1 lead

Big game next as 'Man Who cant be mentioned' played Nigel. Nigel failed to pot his last colour leaving MWCBM to put in a couple of snookers and swing the game his way.

As the Dukes Head were a man down. OSW got to pick his opponent and promptly beat him :)

5:1 after singles was a good start

OSW produced a game losing shot in first doubles to give game away after a very nice Chicken Curry by the Kev.

But the other doubles pairing made up for the loss by winning the next 2.

Result: A good 7-2 win for the master8'ers. This should put us on good footing for the last 6 games to play. Good wins in the majority of those games should give us a good shot at the title. Focus is needed
