Again, the full team, playing on our home turf with home support - oozing confidence!! What had we to fear with this return match aganst the British Flag?
But the Flag very quickly showed why they have only lost one game this season (even if it was to us!). By the end of the Specialist questions the Wonderers were trailing 74/38 and made little headway in the General Knowledge losing that round 92/79. We found the questions for both Specialist and General Knowledge to be very good and do not blame them for our poor performance.
Individual scores were Bob 9/18, Wendy 6/12, Nick 9/12 and Tomo 6/21; conferred points were 8/10 and passovers (very telling!!) 0/6. The Flag had 24 conferred points and 22 passed over.
Final score was 166 to 117 - our dented pride soothed with excellent sandwiches and pie. An enjoyable evening.

With so very little passed over (which is where we traditionally score heavily in the right circumstances) it felt like we were playing a true A League side last night.
On that showing, The Flag deserve to go up at the end of the season, and I'm sure we wish them well in receiving the kind of punishment they doled out to us last night!
