Division One.

Dawley drafted in a ringer to take on the mighty Eden on their own table. inflicting only their 2nd home defeat of the season. 1st frame saw Craig Reynolds knocked totally off his stride with the introduction of C. Wraight to the Telford league. 2nd frame was the frame of the night as roger kept his cool to clear up the colours to beat Sean. Frame 3 saw an inform mark keep dean on the top cushion for the majority of the frame also a nice 47 break to run out a comfortable winner. Frame 4 saw Eden’s capo give Andy Garbett little chances to win the frame before the colours. Frame 5 saw Pete Nolan break his duck and bring home the win for Dawley, helped by the miss rule; Pete amassed too much of a lead that rich just couldn’t pull back. Well done Dawley, bad result for Eden in their quest for a top 5 finish.

Division Two.

Division Three.

Bayley Q vs. Eden B. Eden had provided Bayley Q\'s largest defeat of the season from their first meeting, so Bayley Q were hoping to reverse the outcome this time round. Frame 1 saw Rob Cook vs. Manny Singh where a close encounter played out. Rob had edged into the lead on the colours but Manny produced a stylish well-taken clearance from blue to black to win 46-37. Frame 2, Chris Durham vs. Chris Morris (anybody backing Chris for this one would be on to a winner), in this case Chris Durham won the battle of the Chris\'s 61-25. With the match balanced at 1-1, frame 3 saw the familiar pairing of Lee Newton vs. Dan Morris (the battle of the flare potters) with some good snooker played by both it was Lee who tipped the balance back in his favour again with a win on the pink 50-35. Frame 4 saw Steve Weatherall and Michael Mancini lock horns, with both of these having a good frame win ratio going into the match. A somewhat scrappy and tactical frame followed but it was Michael who potted a good pressure black to win 59-45. This levelled the match at 2-2 with the decider taking place between Chris Fletcher and Gurd Singh. The returning former captain Chris showed all of his old credentials, playing some solid snooker and roll out the winner 57-27 and claim a very enjoyable and closely fought 3-2 victory in Bayley Q\'s favour.

The divisions current top two teams met this week as Bayley D travelled to Madeley to take on Anstice C, in what was sure to be a close encounter with both sides in form after 5 nil wins last week. Bayley deservedly edged the previous meeting 3-2 so the first frame was always going to be important to set the tone. The draw saw the two singles finalists pitted against each other again but this time it was the home sides Paul Devey who started strongly. He constructed a lovely 32 break and continued to back it up with some fine potting to establish a 60 point lead but the experienced Chris dug in and with some great safety got a couple of free balls as he began to close the gap. However, Paul called on all of his own experience as he turned the clock back to inflict Chris\'s first defeat and seal the first frame by 84 points to 38 in a cracking frame from both players. The second frame was a complete opposite from the first as the two captains played a very tight frame with neither player able to open a sizeable lead. In the end it was Noel that potted the pink to clinch it for the Anstice lads. The third and fourth frames were very similar with Andy Elliott knocking in a fine 24 the Danny Evans compiling a nice 30 break to extend the home sides advantage. In the final frame there was never much in it as both players played some good safety before Chris managed to seal the frame by taking pink and black to complete a 5-0 win for the Anstice team. The score line doesn’t\'t tell the full story as the match was much closer and we feel sure that the Bayley boys will bounce back and be there right to the end. Good luck for the rest of the season chaps and thank you for another pleasant night of snooker (and good hearted banter too).
