So near and yet so far..

David Dibben’s D team, unbeaten winners of their division in the SCF’s GC Advantage league, made the sea voyage to the Isle of Wight to challenge Ryde, winners of the southern division. At the end of play, they were still unbeaten, but 8-8 wasn’t good enough. How come, you may ask? The somewhat random tie-breaker was the result of the game between the two captains and it didn’t go Blewbury’s way. On this occasion, Jackie Bryant was BCC’s star with 3 wins. For the record, Blewbury D finished the season with an outstanding 63 games to Ryde’s 55 and Phyllis Court’s 34. Is it fair to say that the best team was robbed?
