Vics lose out to Harrison Park on flyer at Wallasey.
The Vics afternoon “A” team lost by 27 shots at Harrison Park this afternoon when the super slick green proved too much for some of the Vics squad. Needless to say, Rampant Robby ( Franklin) was at home on this green with his dinky little round peggers and he came off best for the Vics with an excellent 21-11 win. Mally Johnson showed his liking for fast greens, with his ancient woods pegging yards at times and he came off a 21-16 winner as did Skipper Billy Atkinson, whose penchant for straight marks was just too accurate at times for his opponent. Elwyn Williams came through a tough encounter to register a valuable 21-18 that kept the losing margin down to a level that the Vics might be able to overcome next week. Unfortunately that was that as regards winners for the Vics but Keith Etches 16-21, Eddie Clayburn 18-21 and Bernie Owen 20-21 all put up decent displays if just not quite good enough on the day.
