Grange 4s v DLL 1s (Thu 9th Nov)

With a reasonably strong side this week the 4s went to David Lloyd with high expectations of getting a good result. Unfortunately we were sent home with our tails between our legs! However, we were certainly in this match and there was not a great deal between each opponent.. On another night the result of this match could have been quite different.

Pete Young got us off to the perfect start with a 3-0 win over Paul and treated us to some beautiful striking of the ball that we all know Pete can do. Meanwhile Matt on the other court was just not able to get into his stride against Bob who was stunned at the amount of running Matt could do! You really felt that if Matt could have clinched the 4th game he would have taken the match as fitness was beginning to show however well done to Bob for closing it out. I think the less written about my own match and Mike’s the better. Both of us were not on best form and certainly on another night playing somewhere near our potential we would have had much closer matches! Well done to Callum and Andy. The final game looked to be Richard’s after taking an excellent 2-0 lead however in true Richard form at no 1 he let his opponent back in. An excellent match ensued which could have gone either way but unfortunately for us it went in the favour of Andrew.

Good banter afterwards mainly around both teams trying to avoid relegation!!
