Gladstone show class as Vics lose by 15 shots

Gladstone travelled to Ashton Park last night and showed their class with a 15 shot win against a Vics side hopeful of causing an upset. After having five winners at Gladstone last week and only losing by 38 shots the Vics had hopes of at least winning the home fixture if not the aggregate point. As it turned out however the Vics could only muster 4 home winners and despite some excellent games the Vics eventually lost by 15 shots. Robby Franklin was back to his best last night on the heavy Vics green with a fine 21-10 win that was followed by Neil Sherbrooke , making it 5 wins out 5 in this tough League, winning 21-11. Mally Johnson had a superb 21-11 win against Nick Burridge to continue his good home form and John Devlin also had an excellent 21-11 victory to complete the four home winners on the night. John Lloyd 17-21, Karl Sherbrooke 16-21 and Ian Sherbrooke 15-21 all had chances to add to the Vics winners but eventually just fell short after good games. Gladstone will take some beating on this form and once again the Birkenhead Division One race looks to be between them and Higher Tranmere. Next up for the Vics is a Rose Bowl tie on Monday against Bebington Park with a massive 96 shots to pull back from the handicappers.
