Stadium v BCI (16/10/07)

[Steve Butler]

Stadium 3 - 5 BCI

BCI beat us 3-1 at their place.  I played Neil first and thought I had thrown it away after taking an early lead but I was able to pot blue and pink to scrape a win on the match table (the one with the 3000 watt light).

Matt Ellis, Mark Bradley and Ross Wilkin were all beaten (we played 4 singles frames).

At home, Barry Stark and Mark Allen both won to put us 2-0 up but Clary struggled and lost so it went down to the doubles to see if we could rescue a point.

Barry & Mark played against Kwok Yip & Jonathan Mason.  What should have been a very high quality frame turned out to be very scrappy.  Barry struggled, Mark tried his best but in the end Mason & Yip proved too strong and they won the match for BCI.
