Match Report

As Richard quite rightly pointed out in his last bulletin, there is a large divide between the top and bottom halves of the table. And so it proved with last night's convincing victory for Morpeth.

Played on the 13th of the month, this was never going to be a lucky night for us.
It was though a match played in excellent sporting spirits.

I opened up the night with another 5-set defeat to Simon.
My 4th consecutive 5-set defeat this season. Ironically, I had won more points than Simon over the 5 sets.

Another blank night for George, but he did manage to win a game against both Simon and Duncan. Green shoots, maybe?


Highlights of the night must include Jai's 3-0 win against Jens, and likewise Jens' victory over me.

Duncan must be cursing his luck for not winning his match against me. Leading 2-1 in games he marched ahead 4-0 in the 4th, but then won only another 4 points to lose 11-8. At the change of ends in the final game Duncan again had a commanding lead of 5-1, but again lost the momentum.
I caught him at 7-7, went 8-7 up, 9-8 down and 10-9 up before finally getting over the line 12-10.
Very much a ding-dong battle. It was my first 5-set victory of the season.
With Comets C closing the gap on us to 6 points, a nervous end to the season awaits.
