Hide AdAnother miserable match at Shipley on Sunday left me scratching my head as George Colbran plundered 5lbs plus of roach to my left for second in the match.
And just when I thought I might sneak the section by default (though I would barely have deserved it) my squad mate Dave Chadwick snared a 1lbs plus perch to take the money.
I need a complete overhaul of my gear and this weekend is when it starts. Will that improve my performances? I hope so.
