The second leg of the skittles finally took place at the Cat & Fiddle on Monday 17th November.
Two reluctant skippers were thrust together for the toss won by the travelling team. Plymouth elected to bat first.
The First Leg: EXETER 49 PLYMOUTH 45
The Second Leg: EXETER 54 PLYMOUTH 49
The Third Leg: EXETER 58 PLYMOUTH 57
The Fourth Leg: EXETER 55 PLYMOUTH 49
The Fifth Leg: EXETER 51 PLYMOUTH 48
We were winning each of the legs but not by enough as we were a good half century down from the first match.
The Sixth Leg: EXETER 52 PLYMOUTH 63
That sealed the overall result and our fate.
The Seventh Leg: EXETER 61 PLYMOUTH 48
The Eighth Leg:
EXETER 50 PLMOUTH 52
RESULT OF THE HOME LEG:
EXETER FALCONS 430 PLYMOUTH DEVILS 411
We won the HOME LEG
Sadly, when the scores were added together the result was:
EXETER FALCONS 826 PLYMOUTH DEVILS 861
So the trophy was presented to Plymouth so they could enjoy their journey home with something to sing about.
EXETER FALCONS
50 NIGEL 53 PHIL 51 TOM 46 GERALD 62 BRIAN 47 DAVE M 57 DOUG 63 DAVE W
PLYMOUTH DEVILS
55 CHRIS 64 DAVE L 59 JOHN 50 MARK 41 MEL 43 DAVE H 47 ASHLEY 52 GORDON
That concludes the report.
