JUNCTION A MOVE INTO CONTENTION FOR SECOND PLACE
NEWPORT (Shropshire): The Champions League final put paid to all but one game during week 27 of the 2007-2008 Newport & District Pool League, although Junction A used the opportunity to close the gap on second-placed King’s Head and both the Shakespeare and Lilleshall Sports Centre.
The Norbury venue has become a fortress for the Staffordshire side this season and their 5-1 demolition of the Wheatsheaf moved them to within one point of the fourth-placed LSC side, with all four teams now heading into the final three games of the season chasing the runner-up spot.
LSC’s and Shakespeare’s crunch clash was postponed, as was the Boat’s visit to the Navy Club and the Junction B’s visit to the King’s Head.
Would teams ensure that all match forms are returned to the Railway Tavern after games to ensure that league tables and player statistics are as accurate as possible. Please also text the result to 07831 123153.
