Firstly
Steve & Rob, paired together after playing together a couple of
times for men's 2, managed to at least cause a few worries for the
opposition pairings but unfortunately couldn't take an end. The more
experienced pairing of Dave W & Andy weren't fairing much better,
coming close a couple of times to taking an end but ultimately being
unsuccessful.
Sam & Rich were doing slightly better in taking both their first & second rubbers to a deciding end but unfortunately coming up short. In the final rubber of the night they once again went to a decider, Rich not helping his cold by playing 9 ends in the night, and this time salvaged some pride by taking the game. Overall an 8-1 defeat wasn't the hoped for result but against a strong opposition who have walked the league this season it was never going to be easy.
Two winnable games remain against PMC 2 & Uni Staff to rescue the season slightly. Next up is our final chance of the season to sample the delightful baking of Sam's mum (what will PMC manage after a flapjack?)
