Oldham Amateur Snooker

They take on league leaders Stanley Road next —

5-1 winners over Three C’s — in a match that promises to be a nail-biting title decider.

However, Blue Club ‘B’, who defeated rivals Moss Inn ‘A’ 4-2, also have a chance of top spot if result go their way.

In the Cards table, Nimble Nook hold a three-point lead heading into the last game and need a

further two to guarantee finishing as champions.

Otherwise, they will be left sweating over the result of Stanley Road’s match with Deaf ‘B’.
