The Tatti's celebrated another fantastic victory by achieving their highest ever score against Harry's Lads, winning by 19 pins at the Q Club (Snooker Centre), 397-378.
A blistering second leg of 111, containing a hat-trick of spares by Boundy, Ali & Turps, was the defining moment in the match and gave the Bogoes a 22 pins cushion at the half-way point. Credit to Harry's Lad's, they never gave up and went on to record their highest score at the Snooker Centre against the Tatti's
You don't see an eight of the quarter very often but, when it arrives you have to take full advantage of the good fortune and, that is exactly what Boundy did when he was graced by Lady Luck. He calmly dispatched the solitary front pin with his next ball & with another spare later he recorded his best of the season with 45.
Berti joined Boundy in the 40's however, it was Captain Ali who took all the plaudits. On the final leg, a fabulous personal performance was complete when he floored a second brilliant 17 spare to surge his total into the 50's again. Ali last achieved this feat on 7th February 2014 when he scored 52 in a home match at the Plough Inn against Richmond Lions (9, 16, 18, 9).
This was the 49th clash between the two teams and Ali's 50 equalled their best individual players score against Harry's Lads. He matched the efforts of Stuee Griff who achieved this feat on 18th March 2011, in a home fixture at the Lads Club. As it happens, Berti has played in all 49 and, incidentally, he also scored 40 in the previous games when Ali & Stuee got their 50's.
