“Crusher” in cruise control as Vics beat Manor Road “B” by 52 shots.
Karl “Crusher ” Sherbrooke cruised to an easy 21-06 win last night as the Vics Wallasey League side continued their relentless search for a fifth consecutive title, with a 52 shot away success at Manor Road “B”. Matty Gilmore’s silky skills came to the fore in an equally impressive 21-08 win, not too sure about Vics players attired in Liverpool shirts though. Bernie Owen won again, this time 21-12 and there were a couple of 21-15 wins for Anthony Thompson and Mally Johnson who gained revenge for his loss in the Charity match. Eddie Clayburn and Peter Dodd both won 21-16 although Doddy lost 7 on the trot when lying 20-09 up. Dave Gilmore and Trevor Rodgers were both involved in tough games before coming out on top 21-18. Neil Sherbrooke unfortunately lost his first league game of the season but will no doubt make someone from Harrison Park pay for that in tonights Birkenhead League match. The Vics still remain unbeaten in all Wallasey matches this season despite a much changed squad from recent seasons and skipper Mally Johnson will have a tough job with team selection when the big games with Queens Royal and Manor Road come around. Next up Sacred Heart at home next Wednesday evening.
