Snooker: Whitewash moves Linden up to second
LINDEN Homes B took the bull by the horns as they thrashed New Street Lads 6-0 to cement second spot in the Roy Ling Mutual Grimsby Snooker League Premier Section.
The first two frames were fairly close, but Pete Leggett and Anthony Jagger managed to win them both before Chris Madsen, Jon Leggett, Glen Leggett and Gaz Horsfall collected the remaining frames.
Clee Cons A swept into a 3-0 lead at West End A when Chris Farrow and Damon Gresham won the first two frames and Wayne Tucker and Rob Willerton triumphed on the other table.
All credit to the WestEnders, however, as a single from Euan Hunter and Dave Mac sparked a recovery which Dave Dixon and Paul Smith kept going to earn the home team a 3-3 draw.
