Final flourish
3/ 4/2008
DARTS: FINALS night in the South Manchester Log-End League produced shocks and surprises before Albert Withington’s Neil Hunter emerged as the winner, beating St Crispins’ Steve Moane 3-0.
Saints had featured strongly on the night, boasting three quarter-finalists as Moane beat clubmate Alan Hargreaves 2-0 before seeing off colleague Tiernan McCorkell.
The other half of the draw saw Hunter beat South West’s Harold Rimmington 2-0 before winning the last leg to defeat Carlton Club’s Pauline Balderstone in the semi-final.
Hunter then cruised to the title, 36, 24 and 21-darters giving him success.
The individual crib finals brought success for South West president Graham Turner as he defeated Albert Withington’s Kevin McGlinchey 3-1.
Turner had earlier beaten Green End’s Alan Hawkins and Lauriston’s Eddie McGuire, while McGlinchey accounted for compatriots Alan Kennedy and Chris Doyle.
Should less emphasis be placed on the results of tests and more emphasis on general education for children?
