Derbyshire v Somerset
This coming weekend Derbyshire will be playing hosts to Somerset in this their latest and sixth fixture of nine in division two of the Riley’s BDO Inter County Championships. With five places and 25 points separating the two teams, on paper this looks like what could be an easy win for the home side, however, as quite often happens in darts things just don’t work out like that. Nevertheless this must surely go down as a win for Derbyshire, who currently top the division and look all set to gain promotion back to division one at their first attempt.
Lining up for Derbyshire will be, Men’s ‘A’:- Paul Baker, John Clifford, Nigel Daniels, Gary Fenn, Paul Mellor, Rob Needham, Steve Pashley, Peter Slater, Drew Smith, Dave Smith-Hayes, Reece Spurr, Men’s ‘B’:- Dave Allcock, Adrian Asprey, Jim Beardmore, Christian Bradshaw, Richard Hanson, Steve Homer, Antony Palfreyman, Darran Sinfield, Mick Smith, Alan Statham, Doug Walker, Rob Wood, Reserves:- Ian Byard, Adam Fern, Paul Jones, Richard Rawding, Colin Rich, Tim Rippon, Rob Smith, Danny Thomas, Women’s ‘A’:- Stephanie Allerton, Kelly Dean, Jane Densley, Kirsty Handford, Joanne Oldershaw, Jackie Sweet, Women’s ‘B’:- Rachel Ayres, Dee Fenn, Lynda Gilbert, Sara Harrison, Michelle Phillips, Sarah Quinn, Reserves:- Rachel Bird, Dawn Buckley, Kerri Buckley, Nicola Fletcher, Janice Pearce, Donna Phillips, Louise Rawson, Beverley Worthington.
