Report: | There’s no doubt that Friday’s loss to Bexley I has left Dulwich with, if not a mountain, certainly a sizeable pyramid to climb if they are to retain the Priory title.
There was no change in leadership but some personnel changes lower down saw the home side gain some semblance of revenge over an admittedly weakened Bexley IIs. Anyone who sphinx the title race is over will need to answer to Will who backed up an impressive win on Friday with a straight games demolition of Steve.
Tim seemed to still be suffering from the after affects of Black Friday and gave Mark plenty of opportunities to show his class. At times moving with the agility of a camel, Tim just did enough to keep Mark at arms length saving 4 game points in the third, and was happy not to see a 4th!
Drafted in for his debut at 5 Antonio was so keen to make friends with the opposition party that he donned a Bexley Open t-shirt before it was pointed out to him that it might alienate his supporters. Having avoided that banana skin he set about the task with vigour aclaiming a good humoured straight games win over Dean.
Andy and Matt fought out the match of the night. It see-sawed both ways and by the end it was almost a sharm that there had to be a loser of the five set battle. If there was it was pleasing to see it in opposition colours.
Dave and Jack squared up for the final encounter both with pressing matters on their mind, Dave a house move on Friday and an imminent baby next week and Jack rushing in straight from work. It looked like it could be a battle royale when Dave saved game balls in the first to edge it 14/12 but early in the second Jaack found Antonios banana skin and went over on his ankle ending things prematurely.
As always the Olleys tasted just like it was fresh from the red sea and the post match chat was equal to the play, though both parties went away more content with the latter.
