Five winners,Five losers add up to another Five shot away loss for “A” team.

The Vics Afternoon “A” team had another disappointing loss away yesterday at Heswall RBL. With 5 winners each, it was the home team who managed the better cards, to record a very close 5 shot victory. This disappointing run of close away losses has seriously damaged the Vics title hopes this season and Skipper Billy Atkinson will need to review his options next season when deciding his squad. Eddie Clayburn and Dick Peake did all they could in the Vics challenge yesterday, with both recording excellent 21-10 wins. Andrew Stratton had a pleasing 21-14 victory and Mally Johnson managed a close 21-17 win on the very slick Heswall green. Skipper Billy Atkinson was involved in a titanic battle before eventually winning 21-20 and Peter Walker was just on the wrong end of a 20-21 scoreline after yet another determined display. Unfortunately with two 09-21 cards and a 12-21 card, the Vics could not do quite enough on the day to get a winning result. Next up is the Centenary Cup Semi -Final at Hoylake Marine on Monday, when the Vics have to give Gladstone a 20 shot start.
