Lowdham & District Village Mens Dart League RESULTS February 14
Gleaners A took on league leaders The Gedling Club at home and the tie finished 3 – 3 in what always promised to be a very tight encounter in Calverton. With the chasing pack winning The Gedling Club’s lead in the league was reduced to two points following their draw.
Calverton Working Men’s Club (CWMC) won 4 – 2 in Oxton while The Admiral Rodney sent The Old Ship back to Lowdham with their tails between their legs following a 5 – 1 Valentine’s day massacre on their Calverton oche.
Another draw for The Cross Keys in Burton Joyce put them level with Gleaners A in what continues to be a very strong showing for the league newbies. They will have their work cut out to get anything from a trip to the rejuvenated Admiral Rodney in round 13 however The Cross Keys will take comfort from knowing they held the Admiral Rodney to a draw back in round 4 at home and have still have lost only one match from the 12 played.
With only six rounds left the league title looks destined to lie between current champions The Gedling Club, CWMC and The Admiral Rodney however The Gleaners A and Cross Keys Burton Joyce could yet make a late run for the title with both sitting only four points off top.

Calverton’s Neil Lincoln leads the 180 table with three so far while The Rodney’s P Cullen continues to lead the highest finish table with 158.
