Match Report, League Match, April 19th 2006 Away versus BPC Goodfellows

Cue ball bakers were unlucky to suffer a 6-2 league defeat away to the Barking Pool Club Goodfellows, the match revolved around three pivotal games which could have swung the result in the bakers favour. The matches of Terry, Scott and Mitch in slots 4,5 and 6 could have easily resulted in bakers wins which would have turned the result on its head. Another factor was Danny’s 'in off' the last ball in his match at slot 2, his opponent had already suffered the same type of error which evened up the luck. The two leaders of the respective teams player of year competitions clashed at slot 7, with myself (tony Cossey) being victorious after a long series of snookers leading to a foul by my opponent which gave me two shots to clear the table with.

Highlights
*Tony clearing the table with a 8 ball clearance in the doubles after the opposing pair fouled from the break – Sorry you did not get a shot dennis!

*Stuarts ‘iron balls’ clearance of the last 4 reds and the black to win his game

*Tony’s win after keeping his opponent tied down with a series of full table length ‘off the cushion’ snookers

Lowlights
*Yon being unlucky for a change in the number one slot after a very tactical frame.

*Peter’s opponent at number 8 being a good potter but lousy positional player. Actually he produced a great black ball pot to win.

* Close losses for Mitch, Terry and Scott
