Thursday 19th Nov. WWCC took their first 4 point victory against a weakened Aardvarks side. WWCC playing their usual Chris Ogle, Roger Pyle and Alan Thomas whereas Aardvarks had Larry Gregory, Max Bonyadi and Geof Bax playing his first match against WWCC for a couple of years. Anthony Budden is recovering from an illness and a hospital stay.. we all wish him a speedy recovery.
Roger Pyle got WWCC club off to a flying start with a straight 3-0 win over Geof Bax, Alan Thomas then consolidated the lead by beating Max in a 5 set thriller which in the end went Alan's way.
Chris then came out a 3-1 winner against Larry who couldn't quite take it to the 5th leg decider. Roger then came out the winner 3-1 against Max to take the score to 4-0. Chris up next against Geof who was suffering with a strain injury following the game against Roger earlier in the evening. After the first leg it was clear Geof couldn't continue and unfortunately had to concede the game.
Alan next up against Larry. Alan has got the measure of his old team mate in recent years and today was no exception. The score now 6-0 to WWCC.
Chris and Max have had some good matches in the past this wasn't the spectacle it might have been, however Max came out the victor to serve Chris up with only his second defeat this season.
With the score at 6-1, is seemed that something might be salvageable from the match after all, and Geof Bax agreed to take to the table again in a super human effort to wrestle something from the fixture. Unfortunately Roger and Alan in full flow were too strong for a partially injured pairing of Larry and Geof.
Final score 7-1 to WWCC 'A'
