Firsts home v Dalgety Bay (Wed, 25 Nov,'09)

GRG1 were up against league topping Dalgety Bay 1. With the Fifers battling traffic across the bridge the matches went on as the opposition filed in.

First two matches on were Brian Buchanan against Richard Northin at 3 and Chris Mair against Neil Bennett at 2. Brian and Chris were trading blows in all the games to about 4 all but with relentless efficiency the fife men would come strong and pull away to take the game. Net result - two 3-0 losses for the grangers.

Robin Steel then took on Mike Sutherland at 5. Over 3 close games the Steel man hammered out some driving bullets but Mike had just a boast and drop too many in the end and came out 3-0 winner.

Al Hamer was next up against Allan Tasker at 1 and really came out of the blocks flying. Al took an 8-3 lead in the first game before tasker hauled him back to close out 10-8. Again in the second al put the pedal to the metal and was covering the court well but ultimately the game slipped 9-6. With the legs a little less willing in the third Tasker went on to take a 3-0 win in the end.

Last up was Rich against Ian Paltiel. After loosing the first and as the crowds have come to expect the grange man dug deep and took the second before the depth and precision of Ian's shot took their toll and he came out the 3-1 winner. So, some good games, but ultimately 20-3 against - the final score.


Overall 0-5, 3-18. (Report: C Mair)
