Nothing out of the ordinary, just the normal action packed match against a passionate side.

Another game we really should have won against a solid team... I just hope these missed chances won't come back to haunt us at the end of the season... |

It was a strange night to say the least. The replayed final frame being one of the weirdest decisions I have ever come across.
Whichever way you look at it, this match will go down as one of the classic Eden -v- Eagles encounters. Not pretty to watch but stuffed full of passion and drama. I have to say the Eagles composed themselves pretty well apart from the Honourable Sir Tony Nuttman!
Assembled on the balcony for the past treble champions return to the Theatre of Dreams were best described as the ''Eagles Home Welcoming Party'' and constant taunting and cries of ''Rattle it'' ''Rattle it'' on most Eagles shots was not good. We contrived in a mad 5th frame to miss one of the most amazing blacks I have ever seen which should have put us 3-2 up. Up to that point I think its fair to say the Eagles were on the back foot.
Coneycueist, put it like this the best side lost.
On another note, there were rumours leaking from the Eagles camp that Danny Evans choose 'himself' not to play last night......Golden? |

November 27 in history..
1964
The Democratic Republic of Viet Nam opens its embassy in Brazzaville, capital of the People?s Republic of Congo.
1975
Ross McWhirter, co-editor and compiler of the Guinness Book of World Records, is shot dead by Irish Republican Army gunmen at his London home.
1981
Viet Nam ratifies the United Nations Convention on lifting women discriminations.
1990
Britain?s ruling Conservative Party chooses Chancellor of the Exchequer (Finance Minister) John Major to succeed Margaret Thatcher as prime minister.
2000
The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam prepare to hold unconditional peace negotiations with the government to end Sri Lanka?s 17-year-long civil war.
2001
U.S. Assistant Secretary of State William Burns and retired Marine Corps General Anthony Zinni meet with top Israeli and Palestinian officials as part of a U.S. peace initiative.
2007
The Power and his flagging band of 'we were good once, honest' cronies get their pants pulled down and arses spanked once again by their superior Beckenham rivals. The melencholic thud of their collective hearts breaking (again) and the image of a solitary, distraught man gently sobbing on his car journey back to his caravan in Southend, caused sympathy in even the most heartless of man (apart from me).

To echo Berty's comments the Bloodhounds will probably be thinking how they manged to play so well and lose 5-2. Again, they looked too good to go down but the real test will be how they hold their heads up when they play well but get similar results against the Egos, Hotshots etc. Top performance from the Coney though using bottle and team spirit to pull off a very good result. Lots of strong individual performances from Berty, Merv and James. Dips played especially well and has been outstanding so far this season. 'Sexy Saxton' also had a good performance and won although I am sure he texted the whole of the Croydon Pool League to tell them that last night. Keep it up Saxtonator |

Power, would you mind teaching me your precision snookering ability and textbook clearances. I need to learn from the master.
And on reflection that gobby chap who was drunkardly supporting you probably put your team off as much as ours.

I was mighty embarrased by my display. Sick. Luck is an understatement. But I guess you should have sent me packing before all the flukes crept it. My first league win this season!
As for the gobby fella, we have receruited him for the away fixture at the Red Deer. Apparently he actually drinks in the Red Deer! And yep, he had to leave when he did as I think both sides had enough of him by then. |

The Cuemasters looked very sharp indeed last night. If they can keep that line up throughout the season they'll have a very good presentation night.

A first for me that night as well. In a frame after the match I potted the black from the break. They were set up again and I asked if anybody would give me odds of 50-1 on doing it from the next break. There was one particulary willing offer. Perhaps you are not mentioning it Mavis because of the ?25 you owe me I only regret not staking more!
