29/08/08 A-Team V's M of L


This is getting hard work now! I must make sure that I update this every week!

29/08/08 vs M of L (Our bogey team)

Skipper (Craigo) was off to get married and thankfully he took HUD (Paul) with him!

Tough call this week as I was left with the captaincy! Fluffy, Sherman (Gotts) and Dead Beat (Hitcham) all waiting in the wings, but I had to go with my instincts, and play a straight 8, which didn't include these guys!

Well what could I expect from us other than absolute crapness! 3 - 1 down in the doubles and no-one looked like they could hit the cows arse with a banjo. Maybe me and Kelvin could have hit it with a guitar, but the other would have needed cellos at best!

Two big singles games up first and we failed to perform, just as the away team failed to hit their doubles!!! Cha Ching! 3 - 1 down became 3 - 3 and we thought a draw was back on the cards, and hopefully a victory!

I was in confident mood despite our poor start as Serious (Matty), Dunston (Al) and Me had the next three legs to play. Win, Win, Win saw us secure the draw, and a decent performance from Dunston with a 125 and 157fn. Next was the new kid on the block (Smasher) and he made us sweat a bit before finally picking off double 9!

The next two singles went against us but we we're more than happy with the result! This was more than could be said for the away team as they were out of the door before the food could be dished out.......BOO! - Fair play to Waterson and Hunt who stayed behind to sample the KFC chip butties!

Other Events

Sheepy (Spence) had his first practice of the season on the dart board after joining in with the team rather than snooker, fruit machine, snooker, fruit machine, quiz machine, fruit machine, fruit machine!

Broadview again next week then?
