Once again we were well entertained by BB&O but, unfortunately for us, they brought along a very very strong team indeed. Several
of their players have represented their Country at Senior level and are also past winners of major senior championships in the UK.
It is very tough for us to compete against these kind of counties when you take into consideration the number of Clubs they have
available to them from which to pick their best team. We continue to do our best against such big counties, but it is tough. It is good to know that the guys competing for teams like BB&O still respect us for what we try to achieve with their knowledge of our limited pool of talent. They appreciate that we all still try our best to win and almost certainly have the best team spirit side in the league. Thanks to all the guys in our team for their continued best efforts.
Well done to Graham Crawford for getting the only ½ point in the match, although three of the other matches were close and these could have well ended in another three halved matches.
Unfortunately we did not have Brendan Walsh or Clive Allen available for this match due to health problems. Hopefully they will be back to good health soon.
Our next match is against Hertfordshire who apparently also have a very strong team this year and one which can compete against BB&O so once again we will have our work cut out, but I know all members of the team will be up for the match on the day.
Peter Jones. Seniors Captain.
