Survivors see off Golfing Society

On an alley where the Golfing Society have never known success, the hoodoo struck again and the Golfing Society were well beaten by 15 pins.

The opening pair of Taylor and Lewis were unable to capture their form of previous times, and and consequently lost 9 pins to give the middle pair of Gibbs (18) and Tinney (17) a mountain to climb.

Unfortunately the ascent proved too difficult and the anchor pair of Pinder (18) and Pearce (22) were unable to pull more than 3 pins back from the deficit of 18 pins and the match was lost.

Thanks go to Terry Taylor for completing the score sheet, Ned Lewis for collecting the money, Howard Bowker for cheering from a far, and Rich Williams for captaining the side on the night.

Next match home to The Gamblers on Thursday 1st November.

Gibbs puts spell on Wot-U-Wots

Things looked bleak for the Golfing Society when the first pair of Taylor (32) and Lewis (23) resumed their partnership at the top of the order, and promptly lost 11 pins.

The middle pairing of the in-form Gibbs (39) and the Irish strummer Tinney (20) were too good for their opponents and pulled 20 pins, to give the anchor pair of Pearce (33) and Pinder (23) a lead of 9 pins.

They were never headed, and cruised home by a winning margin of 13 pins.

Thanks go to the Wibbly Wobblys for their whole hearted support, and congratulations to the wizard Brian Gibbs for another top performance.

Next weeks match is on Tuesday at Almondsbury FC against our nemesis The Survivors.

All In Cup First Round Victory for Golfing Society

The Golfing Society eased through to the second round of the All In Cup with a 33 pin victory over their fourth division opponents Barren Nights.

Due to unavailabilities the Golfing Society were forced into making several changes which paid dividends with a welcome win.

Next match is Monday at the Plough versus the Wot-U-Wots.

Double trouble for Golfing Society

Two matches on the same night proved too much of a hurdle to overcome, leaving the Golfing Society pointless at the end of the evening.

The first match against the Odds & Ends started well with Taylor (33) and Gibbs (24) giving the middle order a 12 pin lead. Bowker (7) and Lewis (17) lost 25 pins leaving the anchor pair with it all to do.

Pearce (29) and Pinder (30) could only reduce the lead by 7 pins, and the match was lost by 6 pins.

The second match against Essilor started badly with Taylor (14) and Gibbs (17) losing 15 pins, and the middle pairing of Tinney (27) and Lewis (22) losing a further 4 pins, to leave a deficit of 19 pins for Pearce (32) and Pinder (33) to recover. However, they were only able to pull back 2 pins, leaving Essilor victors by 17 pins.

Next match is All-in Cup at home on Thursday 8.00pm start.
