INCHINNAN’S lead at the top of the Paisley Veteran’s Bowling Association Short Carpet League has ended abruptly after just seven days.
The pacesetters did keep up their winning ways with a 5-3 win over Hawkhead but Abercorn climb to the summit by virtue of their better scoreline against Elderslie.
Abercorn thrashed Elderslie 8-0 and they now move a point clear at the top.
Meikleriggs posted an emphatic 7-1 win over Renfrew which sees them move up from fifth in the table to third, while Anchor suffered disappointment at the hands of Charleston, losing their game 5-3.
Priorscroft were the idle team in the division and they are now looking pretty isolated at the foot of the table with a six point gap emerging between themselves and their nearest rivals.
Week Six results: Meikleriggs 7 Ralston 1, Lochfield 2 Renfrew 6, Kilbarchan 6 Victoria 2, Inchinnan 5 Hawkhead 3, Wellmeadow 7 Ferguslie 1, Abercorn 8 Elderslie 0, Anchor 3 Charleston 5, Blacklandmill 6 Caledonia 2. Priorscroft were the idle team.
Week Seven fixtures are: Lochfield v Inchinnan, Meikleriggs v Wellmeadow, Priorscroft v Abercorn, Ralston v Anchor, Renfrew v Blacklandmill, Victoria v Caledonia, Hawkhead v Charleston, Ferguslie v Elderslie. Kilbarchan are the idle team.
