“A” team defeat completes miserable 24 hours for Vics.

The afternoon “A” team completed a miserable 24 hours for the Vics, by going down by 23 shots at Capenhurst, to lose the aggregate point by 2 shots. After the previous nights Wallasey League upset, the Vics went into this match determined to at least hang on to the aggregate point but with only 3 winners on the day, this was not to be. Despite a brilliant display from Eddie Clayburn, who won 21-09, the Vics lost 4 of the first five blocks with only Keith Etches 20-21 and Mally Johnson 18-21 pushing their opponents to the limit. Elwyn Williams then came in with a close fought 21-18 victory and when this was followed by another fine win for Billy Akinson, 21-10 this time, the Vics hopes were rising but with 08-21 and 14-21 defeats at the end, the Vics eventually lost by 23 shots and the aggregate point by 2. This was a severe blow to the Vics title hopes and they will need to return to the good form shown at the start of the season to stay on top of the league.
