A LOOK BACK IN TIME - ALAN TOWE 16.04.2003

For the fourth time this season, the Harvester have beaten Red Arrows in the Forest of Arden Winter League. Playing in the quarter finals of the Consolation Cup Harvester chalked up a convincing 6-3 home win despite a 180 from the visitors Alan Price. Previously Harvester had beaten Arrows twice in the league and also knocked them out in the preliminary round of the Presidents Cup. A 160 break from Jan Zimmerman (Hobs Meadow Mixes) was immaterial as his side went out of the competition in a shock 7-2 reversal to Old Bill and Bull. In the other games Hobs Meadow beat Three Horse Shoes 6-3 and Cock and Hens defeated Farringdon Social by the same scoreline

In the latest BDO Inter Counties Championship fixtures there was good and bad news. First the bad news. In the premier division Warwickshire’s losing run was stretched to four games as they went down 15-21 at home to Lancashire. Both men’s team finished all square at six each with Tom Ryan (29.64 0 taking the ’A’ award, the ’B’ side’s award being shared by Wayne Matthews and Mark Carter who both had a 26.84 average.

It was not a good weekend for the ladies as the ’A’ lost 5-1, Trina Gulliver (28.36) their sole winner and the ’B’ going down 4-2, Betty Sinnett (22.21) their top player.

The good news was supplied by the West Midlands, who ended their run of three consecutive defeats in division four with a 21-15 success at home to Oxfordshire. It was a good all round performance as the men’s teams won and the ladies both recorded 3-3 draws. Top players were Martin Tibbetts (30.06 ’A’), Peter Wyse (26.37 ’B’), Teresa Johnson (18.62 ’A’) and Angie Perry (17.86 ’B’).
