Three players making their debut for Grange against the team formerly known as Edinburgh Accies 2, now playing as David Lloyd Leith, (formerly known as Next Generation) but the catering to take place at Edinburgh Sports Club!
Michael Scott from Orkney played at #5 for us against Dave McCall, this was a ding-dong tussle and they shared the first two games. From then on, Michael had too much fitness and movement for his man, a winning debut 3-1. Christy Looby played Matthew Ross at #4, could do no wrong to go 9/2, 8/2 until Matthew lowered the errors to win the second and rattle off 2 more games as Christy ran out of ideas, shots and, er, running. 1-3.
Tony Gribben made his debut at #3 and went point-for-point against Taren in the first game but Tony had to work hard while Taren seemed to be relaxed and balanced for every shot, Taren shaded the first and dominated the next 2. 0-3. Will Kerr also debuted for us against #2 Ali Fleming. Only saw the scoresheet, Will seemed to get to half-way in each game on level terms with his opponent and then Ali would stretch his lead. 0-3.
Ali G made a short notice appearance at #1 against Ken Maxwell. Lost the first game 3-9, it looked like it would be an early night. 40 minutes late, Ken was lucky to escape with two 10-8's as Ali seemed to be inspired by the weight of being captain to try and salvage whatever he could against a class act. 0-3.
Overall we lost 1-4, 6-20 including bonus points.
Back to ESC for food and chat, the Lasagne was superb, the former Accies 1 team now known as ESC2 was also there. Much amusement at Ken's corkscrew showboating shot resulting in a stroke.
