Match report v Royal Oak A (Away)

Post date: Mar 17, 2016 1:41:30 PM

A 1st v 2nd match up. And must win for Erith D to close the gap to leaders.

Up first Mop v Mark. A few slack shots by mop led Mark to get 1st chance, Mark failed to dish leaving himself on 1 ball. Another slack shot by Mop led to Mark not being snookered. Mark pulled off a "very" fine cut to pot last colour and white was left with long straight black which he also potted

Pinke up second v John C. An in-off by JC led to a good chance for finish by Pinkie which he took. 1-1

JK v Sherwood. You expected a very attacking frame with these 2 at the table. JK decided to go cagey and a few snookers later it paid off with a JK win.

Rat v Clements. Clements had 1st chance but he failed to take it. Leading to Rat to mop up for win.

Phil v OSW was a close match. Went down to tight frame and tippy tappy on last couple of balls and black. OSW had tactical advantage and he carried it through to victory.

5v5 so Both to pick again. Oak picked Pinkie so Erith picked the player he had just beaten John C. Same result again an Erith win

4-2 after singles to Erith

Soon to be 5 as Pinkie/OSW took the 1st doubles v Mark/Phil combo.

Mop/Rat sparred it out v Clements/JK. snookering JK conjured up another tuck up to get Paul C a chance which he took.

Pinkie got picked yet again to partner Sherwood. Or shall we call them KevWood to play JK/JC. Pinkie had a chance to get his 4th black but he failed and JC got revenge

Result: 5:4 victory over leaders is obvsiouly a great result. And we top the table but the Oak have a game in hand. At 5-2 shame we couldn't nick a couple more.. 5 games to play. It's going to be close i think...
