Etches “The Enforcer” and ” The Gourmet Chef” ensure “B” team gain aggregate point against Greasby

The afternoon “B” team gained a much needed aggregate point against Greasby on Wednesday, when on a heavy Ashton Park green, Derek Thomas’s side ran out winners by a close run 12 shots.With 3 losers in the first 4 four blocks things looked bad for the Vics despite Ian Cameron winning 21-20 after a terrific battle. The Vics came good however in the middle 4 with “Dynamo” Dave Leonard, starting to show the form expected from him, having a good 21-16 win, supported by a much improved showing from Don Ibbotson in a 21-17 victory. A surprise appearance from “C” team Skipper Brian Buck, resulted in a welcome 21-20 victory for him after another titanic battle. With 4 winners each it was down to the Vics last 2 on the green to force a victory and to do so by enough shots to pull back the 8 shot deficit from last week. Peter “The Gourmet Chef” Walker was really cooking in his game and came off a good 21-11 winner leaving the Vics “Enforcer” Keith Etches needing to win to gain the aggregate point and win the match. Keith as usual came up trumps and forced his way to the top of the averages with a hard fought 21-17 win to send Derek and his team home happy. Next up is a Centenary Cup match at Birkenhead Park against Higher Tranmere “C”.
