Hi Guys
Its been a couple of weeks primarily because last weeks game was so sad I really couldn’t think of words to describe it. Away to the hearts of oak we didn’t really play that bad but they were hitting every double 1st dart and we lost the doubles 4-0 despite the efforts of Odd Job who was as relaxed as a newt before we even started. Still he had good reason to celebrate so we don’t begrudge him – congratulations Paul. Anyway after the doubles their team started with the singing and that was about it. We went down 10-2 with Moysie and Darren the only winners taking advantage of the only legs they didn’t finish quickly. Our 100% losing away record still intact.
So to last night and the visit of the Working Mens Club. Last year we won this fixture by playing badly and them playing slightly worse and it looked like this was going to be the same. Moysie and Darren then me and Hos won the first two before Clint and Dave lost the third. The Big Toe and Bungle then won the 4th leg before me and Clint won the first two singles. We found ourselves 5-1 up and the only way to describe it was a struggle. Bungle was next and well ahead of a struggling Dave Cable before Dave somehow found a 112 finish to nick it. From there, Moysie and Oz both lost before Goochy went on to get us the draw. We then needed 1 from the last two and Shoot em up was unlucky to see his opponent finish on 66 after he had missed 72. Last on was the in form Stavros who had won two on the trot before this. Although he played ok his opponent was too good with two high scores and Darren lost to leave the result at 6-6.
Our first draw of the season and we have lost our 100% home record but at least its another point. We’ll take the same next week away to the Home Guard, with the Hos brothers definitely missing and me probably not there either.
Good luck boys
See you soon
