TELFORD SNOOKER LEAGUE

Match Report - 27th February 2008

It's one way traffic in division three at the moment for Audco C, and that way looks to be going in the direction of promotion. Audco C went to the little Dawley B side and returned with all of the five points on offer, in what was a comprehensive victory.

Comrades also gained the same result with a 5-0 win over Newport B, and who would bet against Audco and Comrades going up this season. Chris Crook had a 25 break during this match when he beat Matt Weaver 69-7 in his frame.

Audco B were at home to the Maddocks D side, and this match also went to a decider where Pete Smith for the home side, played Mick Wainwright. It was Mick who won the night however with a 62-24 score line, giving the match win to the Maddocks team, 3-2.

Shifnal D played the Anstice B side at Shifnal this week, and seriously dented Anstices hopes of promotion, with the Shifnal lads winning this match 4-1. Highlight of the evening was the match between Geoff French and Noel Stones who both had a 22 break in the game, but with Geoff French just winning that frame 56-54.

Bayley Q and Little Dawley C, are just one point apart after this weeks match, when they played each other at the Bayley club. Although Little Dawley took the first point when Gary Walls beat Rob Cook 58-18, it turned out to be the only win of the evening, as Chris's Fletcher, Durham, and Bates, and Richard Tranter took the remaining four frames.


First Division

With no card in from Minnesota B this week, whatever their result Broseley will remain one point in front at the top of the table after visiting the Little Dawley Social club and defeating the Little Dawley A side 5-0. John Banks started Broseleys' run to the 5-0 win, when he beat Lee Elcock 72-57 in a high scoring frame. Simon Thomas made it 2-0 having a 55 break in his frame with Phil Cottey. Simon McLeod, Graeme Long and Mick Brezwyn added the last three points to complete the rout.

Shifnal B lost away to the Bayley A team 3-2, with Matt Davies losing a rare frame when he played Spencer Rowley. That score, 68-28 to Spencer. This result will definitely help the Bayley lads in their bid to stay in this division.

Anstice A took all five points from the hapless Bayley E side when the Bayley lads visited Madeley. Bayley E are slipping down the table quite quickly with only three points from the last four matches.

Maddocks A gave Dawley A no favours when they played Dawley at the Maddocks club. This result went 5-0 to the Maddocks A side, although the score lines indicated that there were three very close frames.

Audco A took on the other promoted side, Maddocks C at the Audco, and just managed a 3-2 win with the last frame being decided on a re-spotted black. Andy Kendrick potted a superb length of the table pot, to win the frame and the match.


Second Division

Coddon A are not relinquishing their hold on this division, and although away to the Shifnal F team they came away with a 3-2 victory, and have a four point advantage over their Coddon C team.

Coddon C however, narrowed the lead by a point as they recorded a 4-1 win at home to Minnesota Fats G. Wayne Weeks got the Minnesota team off to a winning start, but that was indeed the only win of the evening for the Min. Fats boys.

Second Club A. fell a little of the pace this week when they visited the Bayley D side and lost this match 3-2. Some very close games in this match and it went to a decider with Dave Dudley getting the better of Karl Owen 51-44 in the last frame.

Little Dawley G and Maddocks B are locked on the same points total after playing each other this week at Maddocks. This match went 3-2 to Little Dawley G.

Minnesota Fats A were at home to the Bayley B side, and this match went to the wire with Phil Bufton winning the match by beating Richard Bedall 75-62 in the decider.

Dawley B with home advantage are struggling to keep up the pace, and they lost their match 4-1 when the Second Club B side visited them.
