Bill of Plough Inn B has been leading his team for many years, and over the decades they have represented many pubs… but always as a B team. A very long time ago (at which pub is lost in the mist of time) the A team folded, but Bill’s team proudly continued on as the B team. Later another team joined the pub and became the new A team, but as they were inexperienced, the A team won the league’s wooden spoon that year. As “winners” of the trophy it was up to the A team to get the wooden spoon engraved, but whoever they sent to the engravers just assumed that they must be the B team, and got the trophy incorrectly engraved. And so Bill’s team are shown as winning the wooden spoon one more time than they actually have! This week’s League results are shown below:

In other results…

Karen D of Plough A won her singles match against Alan B of Bakers B.

In the Pairs: Dave & Jason of Plough A were granted a walkover by Mike & Ian of Bakers A due to unforeseen circumstances.

And in The Retrac: Bakers A beat the Blue Boar 5-4, meaning Bakers A are through to the Final. They will play either Blue Boar Piglets or Plough Inn B.
