SHORTMAT
COUNTY LEAGUE WINNERS - BLACKBIRD LEYS 'A'
The Blackbird Leys 'A' side clinched the Oxford
& District Shortmat County League title for 2003-2004, but only
just. The 'A' side finished with 109
points - just 3 more than second placed Morris Motors 'A' who lead the
league for the majority of the season. At one point the Blackbird's were
17 points behind - but a string of defeats at the end of the season saw
that lead dwindle.
After a very good
start, and at one point in the top 3, the 'B' side slipped down the
table and finished in 11th place with a total of 61 points.
