| Report: | As both teams were in the bottom three, a win was vital to both.
From what I saw of Danny and Paul’s match, Dan was having trouble coping with Paul’s unusual style of play which mainly consisted of high lob serves and drop shots. However, Dan finally managed to get his brain into gear and came through to win 3-2 after being 2-1 behind.
Graham and Steve fought out a close first game but then Steve caught Graham out with a series of boasts to take the match 3-0. So Graham’s one match winning streak comes to an end.
After taken half a day to get to last weeks venue and then use this as an excuse for losing his match 3-0, I thought a pre-match call to James was needed to make sure his co-pilot this week wasn’t Neil “Sat Nav” Atkins. Having assured me that he knew where his home club was, he duly arrived twenty minutes later ready for action. I didn’t see any of James’ match with Frazier, but Frazier’s comment afterwards saying that he had been beaten by a much better player, suggests that the 3-0 result was a comfortable win.
Having been given the all clear to play again after a vicious attack from a Czech mosquito (yes, it was very nasty), Ross and I had a scrappy argumentative match. At 6’ 3” Ross was complaining that I, at 5’ 8”, was man handling him. My excuse for the contact was that I was trying to prevent 15 stone from backing into me and knocking me over. Anyway, it wasn’t a classic but Ross had the edge on power, accuracy and luck to win the match 3-1.
Ian and Neil went on last as Ian arrived late having told us that he had been running the Barclays bank empire single handed while his colleagues had gone off to spend their bonuses. I was wondering how this newly acquired status would affect Ian “The Apprentice”, but it must be doing his confidence good as he won the match comfortably 3-0.
So a much needed win 3-2 for BCC.
Talk of next weeks re-arranged Wednesday home match lead to a confession by Ian “The Apprentice” that he may not be able to play as he had tickets for the children’s film, Toy Story. I know what Sir Alan would say. “Your fired you paedophile”. |
