AUDCO B REGAIN TOP SPOT IN NEWPORT POOL LEAGUE
NEWPORT (Shropshire): Audco B regained top spot after week six of the 2008-2009 Newport Pool League, by inflicting a first defeat of the season on the Wheatsheaf, the crucial sixth frame taking over an hour to settle.
Both Wrockwardine Wood Football Club and the Railway Tavern took crushing 6-0 wins against Shakespeare A and Shakespeare B and the King’s Head earned a crucial away win at Junction A to move up to third in the league.
The Navy Club claimed their first win of the season with a comfortable 5-1 triumph over lowly Navigation A at Bellman’s Yard.
The much-vaunted match between league-leading Audco A and LSC was postponed because the away side was decimated by injuries and business commitments. Two members of the side were away in Argentina and Barbados and one had sustained a broken wrist.
All match forms are to be delivered to Ian Roberts and/or Dave Wilkinson at the Railway Tavern in Newport and match results sent immediately by text message to 07831 123153. Please note that the Audco (Barley) B will play from the Audco this season and not from the Barley, as previously intended.
