ODDFELLOWS B, who have been playing for most of the campaign from the Friendship Inn, wrapped up the Middleton Men’s Thursday Darts League title last week.

They clinched the championship with a 6-1 win over Woodside WMC.

Steve Shaw raced round the board in 17 arrows for the champions, while Russ Hayes did the same for the losers.

Despite being on the receiving end for the eighth time, Woodside still finished third in the table.

Fourth-placed Gardeners Arms (Grimshaw Lane) lost by the odd set in seven to Boarshaw WMC.

The Gallon title went to Grove (Blackley) who were runners-up in the main league competition.

Oddfellows B were Gallon runners-up, and third place was taken by Middleton Junction.

Oddfellows B continue their pursuit of a league and cup double tonight when they face Gardeners Arms in a semi-final of the knockout.

The other semi sees Lancashire Fold take on Duke of Wellington.

The finals of two knockouts in the Middleton Monday League will be played next week.

Gardeners (Sandy Lane) meet Millbeck in the main final, while Albion will play Lancashire Fold in the Subsiduary Cup decider.

Millbeck won a thrilling semi-final against Joiners, the two-legged match (darts and crib combined) going down to the last game of cards.
