Easter weekend is supposed to be a holiday, but it has been a lot more exhausting than a couple of days at work. Over the course of one weekend Forest have stared down the barrel of a gun, lifted a city to its feet in ecstasy, and stood firm against the odds to keep hopes alive. And done it all in about the hardest possible way. Saturday was chaos. With 80 minutes played we were running out of ideas, and the clock was speeding by with our Championship status affixed. On 85 minutes we were convincing ourselves that a point kept the door open just wide enough for us to slip through. After 95 minutes we were in ecstasy, and it took another 95 minutes to heave another priceless point away from South Yorkshire this afternoon. This weekend has restored ailing faith, and it has uncovered crucial evidence that our side has the bottle and the resilience needed to stave off catastrophe. We were a weaker, meeker, friendlier side earlier in the season. There is no doubt in my mind that a spirited Sheffield United side, ears ringing from the yearning roar of a packed Bramall Lane, would have beaten us before Davies arrived. Today we had to be ugly, cynical and – at times – flagrantly fraudulent. Every substitute disappeared to the far wing, every throw-in took an age, every loose ball was rolled into no man's land at the sound of the referee's whistle. And more importantly than any of that, every single player had to stand tall and do the work of several. Wilson was the only man to let Nottingham Forest down this afternoon. Forest had started the game brightly and were covering a lot of ground to keep United quiet; it was an encouraging fifteen minutes. And then came the moment of sheer absurdity. United won a disputable free kick and Greg Halford made off with the ball under his arm. Wilson tried to retrieve it, and after a few words in anger he dropped his forehead on to Halford's – three yards away from the referee. It was more of a head-

Missed chances came back to haunt Notts County once again with a 2-0 defeat at home to Grimsby Town. Mariners goalkeeper Wayne Henderson kept the Mariners in the game with a string of first half saves before Rob Atkinson headed them ahead early in the second. A controversial second goal late on from Danny Boshell wrapped up the points to condemn County to a second-straight home defeat. Ian McParland recalled
shove than a headbutt, and it didn't warrant the theatrical collapse. But it was a clear and obvious red card, and I'd expect any footballer in 2009 to do exactly what Halford did. What followed was virtually an entire game of frayed nerves and heart-stoppers. If the game was played back now, United would probably look fairly ordinary – a strong side having an off day, and feeling the effects of a long run of success. But during the game they seemed likely to score from every single attack. Forest faced what seemed like an incessant stream of corners and crosses. The defending was desperate, tireless and admirable. From the moment Wilson was sent off the defence set up like a brick wall and threw themselves in front of every stray ball. In midfield it was a triumph for substance over style. Cohen and Osbourne covered a lot of ground and tried to plot an escape route into United's half, Perch was fearless. Davies ran the show from the touchline. He took every free header and stray ball as a personal insult and made astute changes at crucial times. Very occasionally he would hide at the back of the dugout, waiting to explode if the seemingly inevitable United goal came. Billy hasn't given up yet, by any means. His venomous, rumbustious spirit and self belief could be what drags us over the finishing line with our necks spared. It's going to be incredibly tight. We may well need two wins from three games and it's an awful lot to ask. But with the bottle and resilience of this afternoon, it can be done. And what a difference it could make to the future of Nottingham Forest. Ratings: Smith – 8 – several excellent saves and a lot more challenging for crosses. His distribution let down his performance, giving United the ball far too easily with meandering balls to nobody. Davies almost choked with fury about it at one stage, even turning to berate the goalkeeping coach. Gunter – 8 – his quality showed today, in sporadic bursts forward and some tough defending. Chambers – 8 – a lot tougher, and a lot more composed, than we have come to expect. Breckin – 8 – we needed his experience and composure. Morgan – 8 – tough, forceful and bold. Never once buckled under the pressure. Wilson - / - nonsensical stupidity. Slap him with the maximum fine. Cohen – 8.5 – spirit wise, he's probably the best player in the country to have in a battle like this. Osbourne – 8 – outstanding, again. Perch – 7.5 – gave a lot to the cause this afternoon, but he gave the ball away a few times – triggering panic. Blackstock – 7 – not the work rate I'd have liked, but that's not his style. He was a useful target for a midfield that had no objective beyond finishing the game. Garner – 7 – did everything he could in difficult circumstances. McCleary – 7, McGugan – 7, Anderson – 7. Report by Alex Campbell
experienced defender Michael Johnson to the County starting line-up for the showdown against the Mariners after he missed Saturday's defeat at Rotherham with a calf problem. Johnson replaced Adam Tann at the heart of the defence in the only change from Saturday's 2-1 defeat at the Don Valley Stadium. Grimsby, back by a huge following from Cleethorpes, got the game underway in their red away strip aiming to climb out of the relegation zone following Chester's 1-0 win at Accrington earlier in the day. A scuffed shot from Forte into the arms of Henderson was County's first effort of the game - but on five minutes came the first talking point of the game. Weston got away down the left and used his pace to superb effect to fly past Bennett and seemed to be brought down by the Mariners' skipper but the Referee was having none of it and turned away

Notts County report continued Notts' furious appeals from both on the pitch and on the touchline. County started the game confidently and carved out the first clear-cut opening on fifteen minutes but Richard Butcher lacked composure when clean through on goal and blasted straight at Henderson. Forte then had a chance in the six-yard box but Henderson was off his line quickly and blocked the striker's effort with his feet. County were dominating very much like they were on Saturday at Rotherham and knew they couldn't afford to let another game pass by dwelling on the chances that came and went. A good run off the shoulder of the last defender by Forte saw the on-loan striker nip the ball around the onrushing Henderson on twenty-three, but defender Atkinson was able to nick the ball off the striker's toe in the 'D' and hoof the ball clear. Hamshaw's right-foot flick at the near post was straight at Henderson on twenty-seven with County still in control. Henderson made a magnificent save from Butcher's twenty-yard thunderbolt on thirty-one minutes and it seemed only a matter of time before County broke the deadlock. Four minutes later the former Republic of Ireland U21 international was performing heroics, this time denying Forte from eight yards following neat play between Hamshaw and then Picken down the right. The Mariners felt an apparent handball outside the area by Pilkington in first-half injury-time should have resulted in a free-kick, but instead Referee Mr Heywood waved their appeals away. County got the second-half underway - attacking towards the Victoria Centre Kop Stand - still looking to break the deadlock. Clapham tested Henderson five minutes into the second period from long-range but the goalkeeper made routine stop from the left-back. After all County's pressure they were made to pay on fifty-two minutes when centre-back Rob Atkinson rose highest from a Hegarty corner to glance the visitors ahead. He rose highest and he got enough direction on the ball to guide the ball beyond Pilkington's despairing dive and send the large number of away fans wild. Grimsby's confidence rose and they enjoyed a good spell without creating any further chances. By the hour Notts were forcing their way back
into the game and forced two corners, but couldn't create any opportunities. Another corner created a good chance for Proudlock on sixty-five minutes for Grimsby but his header was straight at Pilkington. Ian McParland threw Sean Canham into the fray for the final fifteen minutes in place of Michael Johnson as County looked to salvage something from the game. Grimsby were proving to be far more solid at the back than they were in the first-half and were giving very little away. A controversial second goal for Grimsby secured the three points for the Mariners when Conlon slipped Boshell away inside the box and he slotted home. The goal was originally ruled out for offside, but after consulting the Referee for a good thirty seconds the goal was given to Notts' frustration. All County's staff on the bench argued the decision while Grimsby ran away in celebration. From there on in Grimsby sat back on their lead and were quite to content to see the game out in their fight for survival. Phil Picken tested Henderson from long range in search of a consolation goal late on but his handling was again excellent. County must dust themselves down after an Easter programme that yielded no points and prepare to go again at Morecambe on Saturday. .

CENTRAL MIDLANDS LEAGUE Forest Town maintained their lead at the top of the Buckingham Insurance Supreme Division, two goals by Mark Carter gave the leaders a great win at Calverton Miners Welfare, 2-0. This result was a blow for the home team who themselves have championship aspirations and the one promotion place. Second placed Newark Town had to rely on a last minute goal at Blidworth Welfare, to take three precious points; overall the visitors could count themselves fortunate, because the home team certainly did not deserve to lose an entertaining encounter. Radcliffe Olympic moved up to third place, they also scored a late winner at Nettleham, Danny Johnson scoring the all important goal with just four minutes remaining, to give his side a 3-2 victory. Jason Tinkler and Chris Funnell scored the Nettleham goals. James Spence and Drew Hatton the other Olympic sharp shooters. Fourth placed Harworth Colliery Institute's title chance has seemingly gone, after their 2-0 defeat at Pinxton. Daniel Marriott and Joe Riley the Pinxton marksmen. Calverton drop to fifth. Both sixth placed Ollerton Town and seventh Sutton Town AFC are not out of the championship picture, Ollerton however, dropped two vital points at Southwell City. The home team led at half time through a goal by Chris Atkins, Dean Hankey salvaged a vital point for the visitors in the second half. Sutton Town AFC had a resounding victory at second from bottom Harrowby United, the first half was pretty even with the visitors only one goal to the good at half time but after the interval it was one way traffic, with the home team's defence under constant siege, the final score of 7-0 reflected

Kinsley Boys had a comfortable 3-0 win over Yorkshire Main. Goals for Darren Field, Lee Wagstaff and a penalty converted by Liam Rhodes. Kimberley Town's recent improved form came to an abrupt end at Hatfield Main, the home team romped to a 7-2 success with Liam Hardy hitting four, Luke Brownbridge hit a brace and Lee Winterman added to 'The Stags' gloom. Nathan Ryan and Arron Russell scored the Kimberley goals. Westella & Willerby lead at the top of the Black Dragon Premier Division looks precarious, second placed Louth Town are now only three points behind the East Riding club, with four matches in hand. With Westella without a match the Lincolnshire club made it nineteen wins from twenty games, winning 6-2 at Church Warsop Miners Welfare.

THE ROBOT LIE DETECTOR! Mike was a salesman's delight when it came to any kind of unusual gimmick. One day Mike came home with another one of his unusual purchases. It was a robot lie detector. About 5:30 that afternoon their 11 year old son returned home from school over 2 hours late. "Where have you been"? asked Mike. "Several of us went to the library to work on an extra credit project," said Timmy. The robot then walked around the table and slapped Timmy, knocking him completely out of his chair. "Son," said Mike, "this robot is a lie detector, now tell us where you really were after school." "We went to Billy's house and watched a movie." said Timmy. "What did you watch?" asked Timmy's mother Mary. "The Ten Commandments." answered Timmy. The robot went around to Timmy and once again slapped him, knocking him off his chair once more. With his lip quivering, Timmy got up, sat down and said, "I am sorry I lied. we really watched a pornographic dvd movie." "I am ashamed of you son," said Mike. "When I was your age, I never lied to my parents." The robot then walked around to Mike and delivered a whack that nearly knocked him out of his chair. Mary doubled over in laughter and said, "Boy, did you ever ask for that one! After all, he is your son!" With that the robot whacked Mary and knocked her off her chair! The naughty girl! LITTLE HARRY Little Harry returns from school and says he got an 'F' in arithmetic. 'Why'? asks the father. 'The teacher asked 'How much is 2 x 3', so I said 6', replies Harry. 'But that's right' says his father. 'Yeah, but then she asked me, 'How much is 3 x 2' 'What's the f*'kin’ difference?' asks the father. 'That's what I said' replied Harry. THANKS TO DICK DURRANT FOR THIS WEEKS SELECTION WHO WINS THE MEAL FOR 4!

Non-League Football The home team had at one stage led 2-1 but the visitor's goal power took over and by half time had turned the score round, to lead 3-2. The second half saw Louth turn on the style, scoring a further three goals. Dean Rick and Jason Edwards scored for Church Warsop. Paul Watts added another four to his seasons total for Louth, Sam Smith notching the other two. What a match in prospect on Thursday, April 16th, when Louth meet Sutton Town AFC in the Semi Final of the Quartet Catering League Challenge Cup at Harrowby. The other Semi Final sees two Premier clubs, Parramore Sports and Westella & Willerby meeting at Harworth on Wednesday, April 15th, both matches kick off at 7.45 p.m. The final at Alfreton is now on Bank Holiday Monday May 4th Kick off 3 p.m. With Parramore Sports without a game, fourth placed Kirkby Town are now only six points adrift of the Sheffield area club, with three games in hand. Kirkby led 1-0 at half time at home against Kiveton Park, but the visitors could not stop Kirkby's ace striker, John Upton who hit a hat trick and with further goals from Scott Pratt and Matt Fletcher, the home team cruised to a 5-0 win. Sixth placed Newark Flowserve had an enjoyable trip to East Riding club, Hutton Cranswick United, goals by Danny Rose, Callum Fraser and Rhys Lewis gave the Nottinghamshire club a 3-0 victory. A good win for Bentley Colliery at Thoresby Colliery Welfare, the Doncaster area club won 3-2. Not so good for another club in the same area, Thorne Colliery, after a midweek win over Bentley, Thorne lost at home to the bottom club, Bulwell Town 2-0, a result that looks like Thorne will again have to apply for re-election. Richard Johnson and Lee Allen scored the Bulwell goals. Parkhouse got the better of Phoenix Sports and Social, the Derbyshire club won 2-1. Ashley Barber and a penalty by Chris Sharman for Parkhouse. Ryan Moorcroft scored for Phoenix. Carlton Town Reserves moved nearer to the title of the Abacus Lighting Reserves Supreme Division, two goals for Steve Chaplin in Carlton's 5-0 home win over Forest Town Reserves. Heanor Town Reserves, who are in second place, defeated Graham St Prims Reserves 3-2 at the Town Ground. James Perry, Sam Dilks and Ben Holmes on target for Heanor. Tom Carter scored both the Prims goals. Third placed Staveley Miners Welfare Reserves won, at home, 1-0 against Rainworth Miners Welfare Reserves. Danny Simpson scoring the goal. Dunkirk Reserves, who are fourth, won 3-1 against the bottom team Radford Reserves, Will Heath, Shannon Grant and John Bird for Dunkirk. Matt Wheet for Radford. Second from bottom Sutton Town AFC Reserves crashed to a 4-1 defeat at Belper Town Reserves. Pat Johnson and Romeu Butiam Co shared the Belper goals. Paul
Browning scored a consolation goal for Sutton. Teversal Reserves where held at home by local rivals Shirebrook Town Reserves the teams sharing two goals. The title could go down to the 'wire' in the Abacus Lighting Reserves Premier Division, leaders Southwell City Reserves held on to their three point lead, despite being without a game, second placed Radcliffe Olympic Reserves crashed to a 63 defeat at Yorkshire Main Reserves, this despite leading 21 and 3-2. Bradley Mills hit a hat trick for the home team, James Handley added a brace and John Williams also got on the score sheet. Paul Moran scored all three Radcliffe goals. Radcliffe remain in second place, but three teams Clipstone Welfare Reserves, who won 6-1 at home against Bulwell Town Reserves, Craig Buchanan was another player to score a hat trick, Yorkshire Main Reserves and Kiveton Park Reserves are close on their 'heels'. Kiveton had a field day at the expense of Newark Town Reserves, hat tricks for both, Danny Harrison and Simon Toseland and with Simon Walker also scoring twice, the home team ran Buc kingham Insura nc e Supre me Di vis ion Blidwort h W elfare 1 2 Newark Town Calverton M W 0 2 Fores t Town Harrowby Utd 0 7 Sut ton Town A FC Hatf ield M ain 7 2 Kimb erley Town Kins ley Boys 3 0 Yorks hire M ain Nettleham 2 3 Radclif fe O lymp ic Pinxton 2 0 Harworth C I So uthwell City 1 1 Olle rton Town Black Dr agon Pr emier Div isi on Chu rch W arsop M W 2 6 Lou th Town Hutt on Cranswick Utd 0 3 Newark Flowserve Kirkby Town 5 0 Kive ton Pa rk Pa rkhou se 2 1 Pho enix S ports Th oresb y CW 2 3 Ben tley Colliery Th orn e Colliery 0 2 Bulwell Town Aba cus Lighting Re serv e S upre me Divi sion Be lp er To wn Res 4 1 Sut ton Town A FC Res Carlto n Town Res 5 0 Fores t Town Res Dun kirk Re s 3 1 Radfo rd Res Heanor Town Res 3 1 Graham St. Prim s Res Holbrook M W Re s P Blidworth W elfare Res St aveley MW Res 1 0 Rain worth MW Res Teversal Res 1 1 Shirebrook Town Res Aba cus Lighting Re serv e Pr emier One Clip stone W elf are Re s 6 1 Bulwell Town Res Kiveton Park Res 8 0 Newark Town Res Ollert on Town Res 0 2 Church W arsop MW Res Yorkshire Main Res 6 3 Radclif fe O lymp ic Re s

Non-League Football Sharpe to beat. Sharpe made an excellent save at the feet of ex-City striker Wilson to maintain City's lead. Moments later Town's manager Donovan Gethfield was forced to replace the injured Rob Evans with Terry Annable. Ollerton changed tactics for the second half as they pushed men forward, compressed the mid-field and dominated possession. As early as the 46th minute substitute Terry Annable came close with a firm header. Ollerton continued to dominate and on 51 minutes the City defence cracked under the constant pressure when Dean Hankey was found un-marked in the City box and he slotted the ball across the face of the City goal out of reach of City's Darren Sharpe. The City keepers despairing dive resulted in him injuring his shoulder and play was interrupted for five minutes in order for him to receive treatment. City boss Mark Nangle replaced Dominic Williams with Ally Haynes in an attempt to freshen up the City attack. As a result the match became a more even affair and City began to create chances again. On 71 minutes Town keeper Fletcher denied City with a double save to prevent the home side regaining the lead when Chris Atkins broke forward and Fletcher made a good save at the striker's feet, the ball however fell to the advancing Ally Haynes whose shot was brilliantly saved again by Fletcher. Following an injury to Daniel Severn City boss Nangle replaced the midPremier Division - 11th April fielder with Alex Turpin.

Harworth came to Wharf rd with a great record ground last Saturday. The match started at a brisk pace this season and what's more important is that they beat with City passing the ball well in a three man attack Sutton Town AFC 3-1 in the league last week, Pinxton's utilising the speed of wide men Dominic Williams on the opponents in the final of the Phoenix Trophies Floodlit left and Ben Porter on the right to good effect with Chris cup Final at the end of the month, so this win should give Atkins operating in the middle. Town on the other hand Pinxton hope of an upset to favourites Sutton in the final. were sending in long balls to target man Lee Wilson in an Pinxton's top scorer Daniel Marriott's took only 16 attempt to feed his fellow striker Dean Hankey. City minutes to put Pinxton in front thanks to the pin point opened the scoring mid-way through the first half when cross from Josh Parker wide on the right to the far post all three strikers linked up well. A penetrating ball from for Danny Evans to head down into the path of Marriott 6 mid-field found Ben Porter who then passed the ball into yards out who volleyed the ball into the top left hand space invitingly for Dominic Williams on the left. Williams corner. But let's not forget the Pinxton defence in this cut inside the box and passed the ball to Chris Atkins and game because Harworth's forwards were strong and with his back to goal Atkins turned his marker and slotted made sure that every time any of Pinxton's defenders the ball between Town keeper James Fletcher and the cleared the ball they were hit by a mostly fair but bone near post to give City a well earned lead. Nine minutes crunching tackles, In fact man of the match Ben later and City were presented an opportunity to extend Newman, skipper Jamie Renshaw, Steve Darcy and the their lead when the Town defence underestimated the persistent Josh Parker just wouldn't coward out of any of speed of Dominic Williams. A loose back pass to keeper the head turning tackle's, the result could well have Fletcher was very nearly intercepted by Williams but been so different, Pinxton are without doubt doing so Fletcher was able to clear the ball much to the relief of the well this season because of the 16 games this season Town spectators. From the resultant clearance Lee Wilson was put in the clear with only City keeper Darren

without conceding, to stress the doggedness of Pinxton's defense was for all to see on the hour when after a brilliant cross by the Harworth right winger to substitute Shay Dunning at the back post who was 8 yards out with what looked like a open net, Dunning headed the ball goal bound and from nowhere Josh Parker just threw himself into the path of the ball and just got enough on the ball to direct the ball round the post to thwart the best move of the game by Harworth. The game was tight, but Pinxton always looked in control and it was no surprise when super sub, Joe Riley secured all three points on 76, Riley started the move in his own half with a header to the effervescent young striker Jay Cooper who is just growing better and better with each game he plays, 17 year old Cooper who really does represent some of Pinxton's finest moments took the Harworth defence on, and from the right hand side crossed the ball to Joe Riley who had carried on his run to the edge of the 18 yard box, Riley rapped his foot around the half chance and managed to fire the ball into the bottom left hand corner of Harworth's goal, the keeper managed to get a touch to slow the ball down but could only watch as the ball strolled into the bottom left hand corner. Pinxton's season has come of age just of late and it's not beyond the realms of possibility that Pinxton could finish this season on a high, and progress into next season and really give Pinxton a realistic chance of success in the league if the players stick it out and give it real go next season. Pinxton are away at Rolls Royce Leisure 25th April for the last league game of the season, then on Wednesday 29th April Pinxton fc are at Lee's lane, South Normanton, for the final of the Phoenix Trophies Floodlit cup Final against Sutton Town AFC 7.45pm kick off to close the season. Blidworth MW 1 Newark Town 2 A last gasp winner for the third time in four weeks saw Town get a crucial win after an indifferent performance at Mansfield Road. The Blues made two changes to the starting line up from the 1-1 draw at Forest Town in midweek, with Dave Issott and Luke Parsons coming in for Ben Barnard and the injured Chris Self, who was on the bench. Town started the match brightly, and had a half chance on 7 minutes, when a shot from long range by Craig Roche was deflected over the bar. Although Town dominated, there were few clear cut opportunities. It took until the 17th minute for Newark to get their next opening, with Steve Carty having his shot blocked by Roper. Town had another chance five minutes later, most finished off a six man move on 27 minutes, but he fired his effort Full report on www.ballsmania.net

CALVERTON & ARNOLD DISTRICT POOL LEAGUE -UTD TO BLAME AS CHERRY GO ON A ROMP! Divison 1 Victory Club Railway Volunteers The Eagle Divison 2 The Longbow Arnold Liberal Club Carlton Liberal Club
4-8 Cherry Tree A 4-8 Balfour Club 8-4 Ex Service Club 4-5 Major Oak 5-4 Royal Oak 3-6 Calverton MW
Manchester United were amazingly to blame after Victory Club's title challenge was derailed this week when Cherry Tree A beat them easily in the top of the table clash. The startling news can be exclusively revealed after veteran grumpy git, Kev Lane, refused to play for the second placed team whilst the Man Utd versus Porto game was on television. With the match only a couple of frames old, the experienced team player suddenly announced, “If that game is still on in half an hour, I'm not playing” and stormed out to the enormous disbelief of his best mates. His astonished team captain quickly spoke to the club steward and arranged for a change of channels and with Kev's favourite country music now emanating from the square box in the corner, phoned his erstwhile colleague but it was too late, the damage had been done and with the dummy and toys well and truly despatched, the prima dona couldn't be persuaded to return. In the game itself, Victory Club did find themselves 4-2 up mainly thanks to their season star performers, Chris Stapleford, Lee Grunt and Janet Street-Porter but then with the unrest undoubtedly caused by their selfish, almost certain to be ex-player the wheels came off and Cherry Tree A won six legs in a row to seal a comprehensive win, The match was sealed by Ian “The Body” Owen, who commented after “I thought the standard was higher in this league, that's it, I'm off to Skeggy to see if anyone can give me a decent game there.” Indeed. Over in Lowdham, a depleted Railway Volunteers team came up short against Hotdog's Balfour/Cons Club in a fairly scrappy game, lacking the usual quality seen at the backwater village venue. Division One's surprise team of the season, who despite Glen Dyer's denials, are still very much run by their long-time supremo, Alan Gregory, ran out comfortable winners over their relegation threatened hosts, devoid of six of their top players. The visitors were ahead early, mainly thanks to the Little and Large-like pairing of L'il Chris and Big Al, and despite Curtis Bradley giving the veteran captain a lesson in pool, it was left to his pretend skipper to seal it along with his partner, Bacon Cob, in the final pairs leg. Elsewhere in Division One, the relegation 4-pointer between The Eagle and Ex Service Club was won by the home team, who despite missing captain Dave Kitching, had their new star signings, Joe Crespo and Steve Hotchkiss, to rely on and their four wins between them ensured a rare comfortable night for the Arnold minnows. For Ex Service, “Derby” Dave Wilson's sixth successive defeat keeps up his perfect record in the race for the Bottom of the Averages title. In Division Two, Major Oak continued their 100% start to the season after edging a close one at The Longbow. Ex County player, Matt Coates, restored to the starting line-up after a run of poor form, lost again and now amazingly sits in a lowly eighth place in his own team's standings and with only seven

For The Longbow, Jamie Walker continued his fine challenge for the title of Worst Player in the League after losing to veteran, Trevor Kirby and has even received plaudits from Andy Behindthebar who said, “ I have to take off my hat to Jamie, even I couldn't manage six from six!” At Arnold Liberal Club, the hosts sneaked a last leg thriller against fellow new boys, Royal Oak, with star man Kev Hunt taking the glory with a nerveless display of supreme pool. Earlier in the match, George Michael's biggest fan, Anthony Blagg, lost again and is quickly realising the standard of Tuesday pool, even in Division Two, is far higher than that of the City Leisure League. Finally, the clash of last season's bottom two was won emphatically by Calverton Miners Welfare who had Top of the Averages, Danny McPhilbin to thank yet again. He said afterwards, “With my record I'm surprised a First Division team hasn't come in for me, you'd think they would all be clamouring to sign the best player outside the top flight.” For Carlton Liberal, County Juniors captain, Demi Barber, lost yet again and is in danger of discouraging prospective, much needed new recruits to Shrek's squad, remember kids, the standard at County is generally a bit higher than her stats suggest.

DIVISION 1 In a rearranged match from earlier in the season, BCI Snooker Centre “A” defeated Cotgrave Welfare 5-3. The result did not have any bearing on the teams' league standings, with BCI already confirmed as runners-up and Cotgrave already relegated, however both teams wanted to complete their fixtures. Team captain John Cyrek was the only Cotgrave player to win a singles frame, with Cotgrave's other two wins coming in the pairs. Cyrek will now be looking to regroup over the summer in readiness for a serious challenge on the division 2 title next season. BCI captain Wayne Martin can be satisfied that his team finished just three points behind champions Arnold Civil Defence “A” and he will be looking to go one better next season. KNOCKOUT PLATE FINAL Stadium Leisure played host to a fantastic Knockout Plate final in which five of the eight frames went down to the pink or black. The Peoples Hall successfully defended the title they won last season with a 71 point victory over Arnold Civil Defence “B”, however they had to work hard for the win against a determined Arnold side. Nav Hussain took an early lead in his frame against Sean Kelly, but a good fightback by Kelly ensured that Peoples Hall only had an 8 point lead going into frame two. Zeb Ahmed potted some good balls against Alan Cunningham to extend Peoples Hall's lead to 44 points. Kirk Wesselby played very well against Yas Abbas in frame three, particularly towards the end of the frame. Abbas blamed the table for his 16 points defeat but it was Wesselby's steady potting and accurate positional play that did the damage, reducing Peoples Hall's lead to 28 points. John Marshall eased the pressure on his team-mates with a resounding 70 point win against Stan Candler in frame four.
DIVISION 1 In the only division 1 match to be played this week BCI 'E' beat Carlton LC 3-2. Daniel Di Folco however took the first frame for Carlton, with the aid of a 29 break, against Jon Mason by 61-49. Kwok Yip then took the second frame for BCI 'E' by beating Bob Walker 66-30. Wong Yip lost the third frame 2763 to Carlton captain Andy Ball. Sam Haugh then took the last frame for BCI 'E' 65-23 over Bob Wright. This was a rehearsal for next week's cup final between the same two teams. DIVISION 2 BCI 'B' have taken the division 2 title after a 4-1 win over Oakleigh Lodge Social Club. Neil Elliott took a very close first frame by beating Paul "Spider" Wilkinson 59-57. Toby Irons had a 70 point win, 82-12 over Ryan Cooper. Mick Salmon, who is top of the ranking list, beat Steve Roe 62-28. Adam Robinson took a consolation frame for Oakleigh Lodge by beating Jeff Allan by 82-25. Spot On (Sneinton), although they can't now catch BCI 'B', did themselves a favour and moved 7 points clear in second place after a 5-0 win over Mapperley CC. Oakleigh Lodge remain third after their defeat and Mapperley surprisingly remain fourth. This is because BCI 'C' had a walk-over against Sherwood SC 'B' and only get 4 points. Nottingham Forest SSC suffered a 0-5 whitewash at the hands of Ruddington CC. Report by Robert Wright

Candler tried to power in the pink but the speed kept the ball out and Marshall gratefully took pink and black to put Peoples Hall 98 points up. Zed Zubair threatened to run away with his frame against Andy Nichols, but the Arnold player dug deep to restrict Zubair's winning margin to just 4 points. A very good performance by Nichols. Frame six went down to the black with Yasir Hussain victorious against Pete Ellins but by just 7 points. After adjusting for the handicaps, Peoples Hall were just 29 points in front going into the pairs frames. Nav Hussain and Zed Zubair took on Sean Kelly and Kirk Wesselby and a good 36 break from Zubair put the Peoples Hall pair well in front. However, Kelly and Wesselby played some terrific snooker to hit back and win the frame by 3 points. Alan Cunningham and Stan Candler were up against John Marshall and Zeb Ahmed on the other table and the Arnold pair needed to win by 27 points to take the title. Unfortunately for Arnold, Marshall and Ahmed were simply too strong and they won the frame fairly easily.

LEEDS CROWNED CHAMPIONS! Leeds Carnegie were crowned Champions of National Division One over the Easter weekend after Exeter Chiefs failed to win at Rotherham Titans - losing 35-21. Leeds celebrated their league victory in style with an eight try demolition of Newbury Blues, Nottingham's opponents on Wednesday evening. Neil Back's men are now 19 points clear of Exeter Chiefs with only one game left in their schedule, away at Plymouth Albion on the 25th of April. It is the fourth season that the side relegated from the Premiership has bounced straight back up and it will be Bristol who will be hoping to make that jump next season following their relegation from the top flight

Manchester 23 Nottingham Rugby 49 Nottingham secured the bonus point after just half an hour of this game, but the first half in particular was very much a mixed bag. Going forward they looked capable of scoring almost at will. But in defence they allowed Manchester a little too much freedom. An Early attack from David Jackson came to nothing when he knocked on, but Nottingham quickly regained possession for Tim Molenaar to break the defensive line before offloading to Dan Montagu, who's pass out to the unmarked Nic Rouse was judged to have gone forward. But they kept play in the home 22 to force close range lineout, from which Tim Taylor almost got through before feeding Charlie Davies, who sidestepped the defence to open the scoring. Jack's conversion made it 0-7 in the eighth minute. Molenaar again almost broke through, but again them move ended with a forward pass. But the pressure eventually saw the Nottingham skipper double the lead after a quickly taken lineout from Ben Thompson, with Jacko making it 0-14 with the conversion. But Manchester hit them on the break and would have scored had centre Chris Parrott not slipped as he took a pass. But he kept possession to set up an attack in the left hand corner which eventually brought a try alongside the posts for Matthew O'Regan, with winger Gareth Wynne making it 7-14 with the conversion. Taylor then hacked a loose ball forward an almost got through only for play to be brought back for a Manchester scrum. But Nottingham won the ball against the head and moved it wide where Charlie Hayer showed good pace to beat the defence and touch down, Jacko again converting. Dan Montagu put the defence under pressure with a kick into the home 22, and created the chance for Ash Elphinston to secure the bonus point with try number four. Jacko again converted to make it 7-28 on the half hour. But Phil Eggleshaw was then sin binned for a late challenge and Manchester got themselves back into the game with three quick penalties from Wynne making it 16-28 at the break. A try form Alex Loney minutes after the restart, and again converted by Jacko, should have seen Nottingham reassert control, but within minutes the home side cancelled out that score. Again they missed one chance, this time through a poor pass, but managed to keep possession with replacement Sion Williams crossing. Wynne added the conversion to make it 2335. Nottingham were back on the attack though winning a penalty on halfway for Taylor to kick to touch deep into home territory. The pack drove forward and eventually Sam McDonald forced his way over, Jacko's conversion going in off the post. A long spell of Nottingham pressure brought several half chances but the spirited home defence kept them out. And it was Manchester who almost had the last word as a breakaway brought them a chance in the right hand corner. But Montagu and replacement Tim Usasz managed to hold them out and clear the danger. It proved to be their last chance as Nottingham replied to round off the scoring. A quick change of direction from replacement Chris Pilgrim saw him wrong foot the defence and make ground, and with Usasz up in support the ball was quickly fed to Jacko who finished it off, and then added the conversion. Not the prettiest of performances from Nottingham then, but they still managed to win comfortably despite making many changes to their starting line up. Youngsters
Manchester try to deal with Charlie Hayter Charlie Davies and Phil Eggleshaw can feel pleased with their efforts, as can Jamie Barnard, who got on for the last fifteen minutes. And despite not being at anything like their best Nottingham took their points tally for the season past the one thousand mark. Nottingham: Jackson; Thompson (Barnard), Hayter, Molenaar, Dodge (Usasz); Taylor (Pilgrim), Davies; Parr, Loney (Youngs), Holcroft (Duffey), McDonald, Rouse (Nimmo), Montagu, Eggleshaw (Hammond), Elphinston. Tries: Davies, Molenaar, Hayter, Elphinston, Loney, McDonald, Jackson. Convs: Jackson (7).

On Friday 3rd April Rolls Royce Hucknall (Works) played a charity football match for Hannah Newham memorial trophy, which took place at Rolls Royce Hucknall Leisure Pitch at 1pm. The teams were picked from an annual match known as the young verses old. This year the under 35 year olds were called the Whipper Snappers and the ovea 35 year olds being the Mavericks. This years captains were to be Alan Fletcher for the Whipper Snappers and Gary Newham (Hannah's father) for the Mavericks. The snappers were a squad of 14 players featuring Calverton Miners Welfare keeper J Thelan, Lion revived right back R Shilton, R R Leisure Villa left winger C Orridge (Curley) and midfield general Ash Clarke among others. The Mavericks had however a squad of 23 men with some great veteran experience with former semi pro's included Gaz Ottewell and Daz Wardle. The tension lifted as the match kicked off, the Mavericks quickly took control of the game and in the 3rd minute they strung 4 great passes together into the 18 yard box but keeper collected well, after this early flurry from the Mavericks the Whipper Snappers regained composure and press on the attack, switching it from right to left, Robbo floated a ball over to the back post and Adey Miles handles it in the box, forgetting he wasn't the keeper for the Mavericks, ref Ross Brown blows for a penalty after the Snappers appealed and Paul Watts steps up to the ball and puts it in the bottom right making it 1 - 0. The
Mavericks went straight on the attack and Daz Wardle strides into the box were A Hatton had to put it behind for a corner, a quick corner caught the Whipper Snappers off guard and Gary Newham fired it in low and hard at the front post from acute angle to level it up at 1 - 1. It stayed pretty level for the next 10 minutes, Jimbob did come out of his 18 yard box and head it out for a throw in but the Whipper Snappers went on the counter attack on 20 minutes were Ash Clarke unleashed a 20 yard shot but the Mavericks keeper B Palin pulls off a great save and puts it behind for a corner. Subs rolled on and off for each team until half time, but nobody broke the deadlock at 1 1. After half time the Snappers start with some early pressure on the 46th minute Ash Clarke gains a free kick and floats one into the box but Mavericks clear their lines, at the 60th minute Ash Clarke again releases a 25 yard screamer and this time finds the back of the net to put the Whipper Snappers 2 - 1 up, on 72 minutes Mavericks get their 5th corner of the game and it was swung in from the left to find the head of Paul "Dougal" Harvey who rose like a Salmon and headed it just over. On 75 minutes the Whipper Snappers made 4 subs which made an immediate impact, Triggers played a searching ball down the wing for "Gay" Craig who squared it into the 18 yard box to Bungle who dummied it and left it for Matt Bailey to lob it over the keeper from the edge of the 18 yard box to make it 3 - 1. In the last minute Mavericks keep their faith and push forward and were awarded yet another corner, Daz Wardle drifts in a Beckham like corner straight onto the head of Johno who somehow misses the target from 6 yards as it flies wide. The referee blows for full time and young Whipper Snappers win 3 - 1 for the second year running this time taking the Hannah Newham Memorial Trophy for their victory, will the Mavericks return next year to face the ever ageing under 35 year olds Whipper Snappers. The BallsMania man of the match was awarded to Gary Newham who received his BallsMania T-Shirt and also collected the £605 raised to be donated to charity. A big thank you to everyone who took part in this event and also a big thank you to all the people who donated prizes for the raffle and for organising this event. Anthony Blagg (aka Bungle)

“I like the city, my family love everything here. When you play for Nottingham you have everything you need off ice which helps bring success on the ice. It is fun to play for and organisation which has so many fans in building and which is so professional.” Added coach Corey Neilson: “Bruce is a great professional. Dedicated, experienced and a workaholic. He has drive and ambition and is an example to everyone. After I agreed terms myself, the organisation made the return of Bruce Richardson a priority and we're pleased to have fended off the interest from other teams. Just about everyone wanted to steal him, but Bruce has loyalty amongst his many qualities and he'll be back with us next season.

Caddies talk too much, or demand a tip. I'll still take caddies anytime, that's how I started playing golf and I Having recently enjoyed a trip away with a few of the wouldn't change that for anything. For the tidy sum of lads, I must say I detest golf carts with a passion. I love on average £1.00 a round, I would pack the sack for to walk with the wind at my back and a faithful bag the members at Notts Golf Club (Hollinwell) and then carrier plodding behind. That way, I have more time to be able to play the course on a Monday for 25p… how notice the sights, sounds, smells of the countryside I miss the good old days.
Caddies vs Golf Carts... only one winner for me!
and after a bad night in the curry house, my playing Growing up at Nottingham City, I was the pro shop partners! kid, always hanging around the workshop, learning The only wildlife you can see from a speeding vehicle how to replace the now-obsolete whipping around is the 'roadkill' that's been flattened by the cart in front the neck of a wooden club. Or, I was changing grips, of you, not to mention the empty drink bottles and my hands sticky and smelly with double-sided tape Mars Bar wrappers. It's true that carts won't show up and petrol. Come to think of it, I probably unwittingly late, give you the wrong yardage due to most of them lost billions of brain cells due to solvent abuse. No now having satellite navigation (what's that all about), wonder I couldn't do my homework. Sometimes, the club pro, the legendary Cyril Jepson (now at Hucknall
Golf Club), would take me to one of the local ProAms to caddie for him. During school holidays, I even got to go on road trips around the midland circuit, thus gaining limited membership to the magical underworld of the professional golfer and his caddie. I say limited membership, because to them I was a snot-nosed little junior who was doing one of them out of a living. I would have to wait some three or four years until I turned pro myself before I got any respect from this bunch. There was one old bag-rat who used to terrify me. He was 6.3', with one eye looking at me and the other looking for me, fond of his hip flask and park drive cigarettes, if nothing stronger was available. "Keep those bloody clubs quiet," he would growl at me as I clanked along, the bag bouncing on my hip with every footfall. He, on the other hand, shuffled along in slippery leather-soled shoes, the bag hanging from his bony shoulder like a baby in a hammock. Not one club touched another. Golfers and good caddies have a lot in common. A caddie needs a good grip on reality because his player often doesn't have one. And, he needs a good stance, as in knowing where to take it. Just think, you can even blame your caddy for a bad shot, can you blame a golf cart? I fully understand that golf courses need the revenue, around £20 for a cart (50 euros in Marbella), but can we have this much fun with a golf cart … I don't think so. Come on golf courses, please do your bit for solving local unemployment and employ caddies and park your golf carts for good!

Health & Fitness AEROBIC v ANAEROBIC This week as part of BallsMania's Health & Fitness guide we are going to look into the age-old fitness debate of Anaerobic V's Aerobic. If you train regularly the chances are you may already have a good understanding of the two types of exercises but which should you do more of if you're looking to improve all round fitness. Lets look at the 2 types: AEROBIC The word aerobic means in the presence of oxygen. Activities performed at low to moderate intensity - the ones that cause your heart rate to increase for an extended period of time. An example of this would be brisk walking, slow running or, for those into their weight lifting, very low weight high repetition exercises. These types of exercises burn fat or calories to meet their energy needs. ANAEROBIC Anaerobic exercises, are high-intensity activities that build up an appreciable oxygen debt. The body uses different metabolic pathways (which I won't bore you with the specifics here) to react to this activity. Anaerobic activities tend to be short duration, burst of activity things where the body just doesn't have time to circulate oxygen to the muscles (less than 90 seconds). Sprints and very heavy low repetition weight lifting are examples of anaerobic exercises. Anaerobic exercises burn a type of muscle sugar called glycogen to meet energy requirements. The benefits of aerobic activity: 1. Increased cardiovascular endurance, 2. Decreased body fat The liabilities are: 1. Decreased muscle mass, 2. Decreased speed, 3. Decreased power
When the body uses fat for energy it also breaks down muscle. Since muscle cells burn energy and fat cells store it, you need muscle to use energy that would otherwise be stored as fat! Now, anaerobic training, the kind where you push yourself hard for short periods of time, uses a different metabolic system to supply the muscles with energy, which trains the body to respond in a different way to exercise. The benefits of Anaerobic Training are: 1. Increased Cardiovascular Capacity 2. Increased Cardiovascular Recovery Ability 3. Strength Gains 4. Power Gains 5. Improved Speed 6. Decreased Body Fat The liabilities: 1. Increased Risk of Injury in Untrained People 2. Requires a Good Aerobic Foundation When we look at all of the elements of fitness, which include: Endurance • Strength • Flexibility • Power • Speed • Agility • Balance It's easy to see why a combination of aerobic and anaerobic training will do the most for your fitness level. And, since both aerobic and anaerobic training burn fat (anaerobic training actually yields the most post workout fat burning), combining the two in your routine will burn fat and maintain muscle. Not only will you burn fat faster, you will keep the fat off and won't be bored in the process. Not all exercises are purely aerobic or anaerobic. Power lifters probably do the most anaerobic of all exercises. Their goal is to maximize their strength for just one lift. Power lifting exercises usually involve low numbers of repetitions at very heavy weights. It doesn't get much more anaerobic than that. Body builders, on the other hand, tend to focus on sets that fall into the range of anywhere between 5-15 repetitions with some breathing. Their workouts are still very anaerobic. Now, it might be easy to just say that all weight lifting is anaerobic while running is always aerobic. That would be a mistake. Instead of thinking about the type of exercise being performed, think more about the intensity and how it is being executed. Sprinting is a very anaerobic exercise, while weight lifting can actually be aerobic. Circuit training is an excellent example of aerobic weight lifting. In circuit training,

You will have to build two types of endurance in order for your body to perform well when you lift weights. The two types of endurance are: Muscular Endurance: This is the ability of your muscles to contract over and over during an exercise and to effectively utilize the maximum number of muscle fibers possible. Cardiovascular Endurance: This relates to your circulatory system. Your heart and lungs need to be able to efficiently bring oxygen to the muscle sites during exercise and also carry away waste products such as lactic acid. These two types of endurance are actually complementary and quite necessary. For example, what is the use of having excellent cardiovascular endurance if your muscles can't keep up while you exercise? And on the other hand, how well will your muscles perform during a lifting exercise if they have incredible muscular endurance but your cardiovascular system is unable to deliver the oxygen they need? Benefits vs. Limitations of Aerobic and Anaerobic Exercises Remember Aerobic exercises do not directly help build strength, power and muscle mass that a bodybuilder desires. In fact, excessive aerobic activity may result in undesirable loss in muscle mass, strength and speed along with the desired fat loss. However, even though aerobic exercises cannot achieve significant muscle mass buildup, they do prepare the muscles for enduring the intense exertion in strength- and muscle-building anaerobic exercises. The results achieved by anaerobic exercises like weight lifting and strength training are exactly what a bodybuilder desires: low body fat percentage, buildup of muscle mass, and increased strength, power and speed. In fact, increased muscle mass helps burn more fat even when you are doing nothing. However, the only flipside of anaerobic exercises, if one may call it so, is that they require a strong foundation of aerobic fitness to begin with – otherwise you would tend to, as they say, “hit the wall” quickly. So the answer to the question “aerobic or anaerobic?” is, therefore, obvious: There is no choice to be made between the two; it's got to be both aerobic and anaerobic if you want to be a successful bodybuilder – aerobic for enhancing cardiorespiratory endurance and reducing body fat, and anaerobic for power and muscle mass buildup.
