Top guns Carsons sink the Eagles

-

Carsons held on to top spot in the Airdrie and District Darts League after a convincing win against The Eagle.

The champions have enjoyed a blistering start to their campaign – and are the only side in the division to hold four wins in a row.

This came despite a 16-dart score by Craig McKinnon for Eagle.

League newboys The Post have enjoyed a good start this year, however they suffered their first loss of the season to in-form Workmen’s B.

The Workies held on to second spot in the table, and are level on points with The Swan.

Wilsons Arms were on the end of a heavy defeat after their trip to The Swan, and remained rooted to the foot of the league table following the 10-2 loss.

The Swan were dominant throughout, with James Parker scoring 16-dart and 21-dart wins, along with Tony Higgins who grabbed a 19-darter.

In the doubles, Gordon Jackson and Lauchie Black rounded off the win with a 22-dart score.

The Clansman have had a sluggish start to their season so far, however, they upset the Bank Social Club with an impressive 8-4.

Kristoffer Ross was the key man for the battling Bankies, scoring two 180s.

Despite some inconsiste­nt form so far the Clansman outfit will now be looking up after pulling themselves away from the foot of the table.

The Workmen’s A are still searching for their first point of the season after a 9-3 defeat to The Forge.

The Albert Bar are the only other side sitting on zero, after a narrow 7-5 slip-up at the The Boar’s Head.
