How far will dart players go to miss the best team in the league and having to leave it to reserves to come in and face the music?........ Well, How about brothers large & larger going all the way to Scotland just to gatecrash a perfect strangers wedding!......... Or even Captain Quiff "havin to go to London" on that particular day just to preserve his most win stats!!....The Question is will they be back to play the BOTTOM of the league side on Friday!... Only time will tell!
On to the darts. The first doubles started off brilliantly with Moysey getting away first dart and the home guard giving us a start of 15 to give us a 250 point start. Our boys didn't score heavy and they started to peg it back so when we were just about to get a shot at the double Honeyman hit 177 to leave Kelly 40 which he got first Dart! What a gutter!
The next two doubles were one-sided with the home guard not giving us a chance. 0-3
On next were our teams whipping boys of "off-form" Oz and " I've sold my house and I'm not absolutely pissed this week" Pauly Gallagher. What can we say, the home Guard couldn't take it serious, Oz scored well and gally got the double first dart! OH! MY GOD! 1-3....
(By the way we were so short this week and I still got dropped from the doubles! Cheers Oz)
On to the singles. Pauly Tyler made up for his inept display in the doubles to beat Karl Bryant quite easily. Pauly " I'm so happy I let my luv of my life's 12 yr old son beat me at darts every night" Gallagher saw the home guards first double one Marathon with Paul Gardiner and twenty minutes later got another win for the boys! (How do he do it). Billy Whispering Bennett (because that's what he was doing to his opponent Andy Whitehead, before,during and after the game) played well....... but strangely Andy played like a complete TWAT! (hand leaving the forehead) and got another win for the lads! It was well worth a pint Billy and you know how tight that northerner Andy is!
Our last win was Stevie Moyse who got the only legitimate win of the night in a good match with Nigel Knights when good darts were thrown and some how not "given" to us! The losers in the singles were Goochy, mainly because he was concentrating NOT to wipe his nose after throwing his last dart that it put him off his game. Stridey who's opponent didn't give him a chance, Oz who didn't play too badly even though HE DID DROP ME FROM THE DOUBLES and ME who gave 15 darts start to Tasker and couldn't pull it back! (I think I was still traumatised about BEING DROPPED FROM THE DOUBLES!!!)
Anyway the PB B Reserves done the club proud with a slim 5-7 away defeat but never fear the regulars will be back this Friday to get a another win on the board. (That is if we ain't playing a top 3 side!)
Wish you luck

(Who unbelievably got dropped from the doubles!!!!!!))
