27-07-10 LEAGUE MATCH 18 .......
Tonight's matches saw the top two in both the Premier and First Division clashing. In the Premier Division Players Trent went into the match with a one point advantage over reigning champions Players Baize. As expected there was nothing to show between the sides as both home sides dominated the proceedings winning 6-3, giving a 9-9 overall score line, so nothing changes as we go into the final session of matches.
The top match in Division One saw leaders Wolstanton SC get beaten 11-7 by second placed Players Pool Club. This cuts the gap at the top to three points.
Also in the Premier Division Longton Zzz's beat Plaza 10-8 to move out of the relegation places. Plaza dropped two places after that defeat, as Green Baize A beat Crompos Pool Club 11-7 and Abbey Hulton beat 'bottom side' Locomotive 12-6, to both move up one spot.
The other results in Division One saw the bottom two Riley's and Pockets (formerly Joker) share the points after a 9-9 draw. And also sharing the points, Lambourne and Trent Tavern, after a 9-9 draw.
In Division Two it was 17 'on the bounce ' for Green Baize North and the title will surely be theirs by the end of August, this week a 11-7 win over Corner Pin for them. Longton Snooker A had a shock 10-8 defeat at the hands of the improving Ashwood. This allowed Nomads, 11-7 victors over Bulls Head , move to within three points of second place, with a game in hand. Green Baize B beat Longton WMC 11-7 to stay in fourth place.
Next weeks action sees the One frame Knockout take place at Players Pool Club.

13-07-10 LEAGUE MATCH SEVENTEEN REPORT ........
The Premier Division remains interesting both at the top and the bottom. Players Trent took full advantage at the top , winning their game in hand 14-4 against Plaza. This now puts them one point clear of Players Baize and they meet next week. At the bottom Locomotive earned a rare two points with a 10-8 win over Longton Zzz's, this coupled with the defeat of Talbot by Crompos Pool Club, makes it interesting reading. Crompos now have pulled clear of the relegation following their run of 5 points out of the last 6. Abbey Hulton eased past Green Baize A 13-5 to move within a point of third placed Plaza.
Division One saw Players Pool Club win their game in hand over leaders Wolstanton SC, beating Riley's 10-8 , but the gap still looks a healthy 5 points. Plaza Town dropped two places after defeat against Trent Tavern and Lambourne's victory over Longton Snooker B.
Division Two saw the top three all 'cruise' to victories Green Baize North 15-3 over Green Baize B, Longton Snooker A 12-6 over Corner Pin and Nomads also 12-6 victors over Longton WMC. In the divisions 'other' game Ashwood sneaked a 10-8 win over bottom side Bulls Head.

06-07-10 LEAGUE MATCH 16 REPORT ......
Match Sixteen has come and gone , but has the title gone from the grasp of Players Baize. Once again their home side was trounced, this week by Plaza who ran out 7-2 winners and 11-7 overall. Players Trent edged out Locomotive 10-8, despite an away defeat and they now sit a point behind their 'neighbours' but with a game in hand, next week against Plaza ... Green Baize A continue to impress in their first season in the league, battering Longton Zzz's easily 12-6. Abbey Hulton got back to winning ways beating Talbot 13-5.
Division One seems to be a 'stroll in the park' for Wolstanton as they recorded another victory, this week 12-6 over Rileys. The win gives them a 7 point lead at the top of the table. Trent Tavern beat Joker 11-7 and Plaza Town remain in third after a 11-7 win over Longton Snooker B.
Division Two also seems a 'forgone conclusion' as Green Baize North made it 15 wins out of 15 , will they manage the whole season ???This weeks 'victims', were Nomads by 13-5. Longton Snooker A stay second beat Green Baize B 11-7 and Ashwood beat Corner Pin to leapfrog their opponents, with a 10-8 score line.
Next weeks action sees match 17 .......
