Christy at #5 huffed and puffed against Russell to get it to 2-2 and then established control to take the fifth. Dougie Brown at #4 was too strong for Bruce Davies 3-0. Alan Stokes took on one-time Grange club champion Christine Graham and in the traditional Stokes warm-up (aka the first game), almost got caught cold 9/7. Alan comfortably closed out the next 2. At #1, Robert Pfab was too strong for Richard Gordon to win his first team match (of hopefully many to come) 3-0.
Match of the night was Tony Gribben against the HWU #2, Julian Fennema. Tony looked in control as he took the first two, the third was tight and Tony got to match ball first. From here, it was hard to anticipate what was to follow as Julian snuck that one, controlled the next two and in the end the fifth.
Overall 4-1, 19-7, we are on a roll here.
Off we went in the frost for Shepherd's pie and chips in the students uni. John Graham, ex-Grange captain, was there after playing for HWU3 and in good form having beaten Neil Thompson. He passed on congratulations to Ali G for now being custodian of the grey book "This is your team" containing all known results back into the mists of time.

Too many number 5s in your team.
Did you play one game each then swap? That sort of idea might well catch on.
Never mind picking us up on typo's, Rich. When is the Watsonians forum going to make a comeback?
This was no "typo".
You guys at the Grange have been trying all sorts of devious tactics recently.
Ron will be hearing about this sort of behaviour.
Oh no, you've found us out. It's a fair cop, guv ;-)
