Week 8 , League Week 5 Review

Only 3 matches took place this week due to the adverse weather conditions.

Nonny Bashers won their first ever League Match with a convincing 8-4 victory over Potting Bowlers. Robbie Robinson of Potting Bowlers beat John Lundie in yet another 3-0 win maintaining his winning streak. Callum McKinnon restored parity with his first 3-0 win in his match with Willie Gelliburn. Daniel Durham also had a first 3-0 win in his match against Iain Boyd. Finally James Higgins had his first win in the League with a 2-1 win over Derek Muir. A night of firsts all round. Well Done Bashers.This result now means that all teams in the League have won at least one match , and the result also confines Potting Bowlers to the bottom of the League with only 2 points.

Nonny Pool Boys went 5 points clear at the top of the League with a 7-5 victory over Touching Cloth , taking advantage of the majority of the chasing pack not having played this week. Declyn Hood , Graeme Russell and Geo Edgar of Nonny Pool Boys all winning 2-1 with David Mitchell the only Touching Cloth winner in his 2-1 win. This match also provided the only 30+ breaks this week , David hitting a 37 and a 33 break against Gary McLaughlin who replied with a 30 break.

You've Been Framed failed to take the chance of going clear in second place in the League when they fell to a 7-5 defeat by Cuddles who raced 5-0 ahead when Conor Davidson , Nicky Carr and Kris Ballantyne took the first 5 frames . However Joe Ballantyne , Craig Reid , Willie Brown and Chris Byrne responded by taking the next 5 frames to level the match at 5-5. It was then left to Stewart Garrick to give Cuddles the victory when he won his next two frames , including a respotted black in the final frame. This result puts Cuddles alongside You've Been Framed in a group of 5 teams on 5 points.

Fixtures for next week will have 4 of the 5 teams in tied second place facing one another. Cuddles v Touching Cloth and You've Been Framed v Aces where somethings got to give. There is also the prospect of a bottom of the table clash between Potting Bowlers and The Rack Pack.
