TELFORD SNOOKER LEAGUE

Match Report - 21st November 2007

Broseley A hold onto a narrow lead this week over Minnesota B by just two points. Broseley were at home to the Shifnal B side and gained a 3-2 win over the Shifnal lads.

Little Dawley A were at home to champions Minnesota B, and will be very pleased taking two points from the Minnesota side. Phil Cottey beat Richard Wade 56-1 and the other winner for the Little Dawley side was Ade Henry, who had a 55-4 over Ian Duffy.

Maddock's C entertained Bayley E this week and in a good match (certainly better than the football that was on the TV in the other room) the visitor's were the victors by three frames to two. A. O’Brien took the first game on the pink from Mick Wincott, in a game that could easily have gone the other way, 38-30. Darren Wincott then recovered from his setback the previous week when defeating an out of sorts Steve Hoof, 58-32, with a nicely compiled 35 break along the way. Ali Jones then followed up last weeks excellent break of 85 with another run of 41 in beating Joe Oliver, 61-12.

In the next frame John Squire ran out the winner against Graham Hoof by 74-17, building a really good break of 52 only to miss position with a few red balls still on the table. The last frame saw Steve Hassack start really well with a solid 32 only for Dave France to get back in the frame and Steve was quite relieved to take the brown, blue and pink and win by 78-46, and secure a second point for the home side.

Anstice A were away to the struggling Bayley A side and recorded a 4-1 win at the Bayley club, the Bayley winner being Steve Fletcher who beat Steve Camp 75-23.

Due to a good start, Audco A are still hanging in, and this weeks result was a 4-1 win to the Audco side, playing at home in the match with Dawley A. Highlight of the evening was the match between Andy Kendrick and Sean Nolan. Andy had a 28 break and was coasting, only to see Sean clear the table with a 27 to snatch the game on the black ball.

Bayley F were at home this week to the Maddocks A side and will be well pleased with their 3-2 victory over the Maddocks side. Paul Maxfield, playing well this season beat Leigh France and there were some very close games. John Jones lost to Phil Davies in a high scoring game 74-66. Darren Willkie was another good winner over the out of form Ian Eldridge.


Second Division

With only two cards in from the second division this week, Shifnal F are top, although they lost at home when they played the promoted Maddocks B team, who are acquitting themselves very well so far in this season.

Coddon C entertained the little Dawley G side at the Coddon club, and in a match decider the Dawley side took the win, with Rob Withington beating Josh Wall 51-13.


Third Division

Audco C, were away to the Shifnal D side and came away with a fine 4-1 victory, which keeps them in top position this week. Winner for the Shifnal side was Andy Easthope who beat Anthony Heathcote 61-44.

Close on Audcos’ heels are Anstice B, but although having the home advantage this week they lost 3-2 to the little Dawley C side.

Comrades had another 5-0 win this week at the expense of the little Dawley B side, at the Dawley club, and this win sees them in third place.

Audco B played the Newport British legion in a local derby match this week, and the Audco side came out winning this match 3-2.

My regular reporter from Hadley has been very quiet lately (where are you Iain?) however, his side, Hadley A visited the Bayley Q team and lost this match 5-0. Highlights of the game included the 34 break from Steve Weatherall who won his frame against Richard Benting with four reds still remaining. Chris Bates fluked the black and then potted the re-spotted black to beat Ken Booty, and Rob Cook beat Iain Atkinson on the black in one of his trademark tight long games.
