Magdalen Men's veteran triumph for Willcocks and Webb in no-set thriller
The crowd wanted a re-match. There had been talk about Patrick "cross-court" Dower's injury in the summer. Strong words had been uttered: Webb was accused of dropping balls deliberately short to his hobbling opponent. Bill Buah had miscounted the score.. (yeah right). Revenge was required: the hype was uncompromising. The repeat would be the true test. But Bill Buah never showed. "Chicken," said Webb.
It's a disgrace that Willcocks & Webb extended their unbeaten run and winning the tournament on two walkovers. It's even worse than Arsenal and Man United fielding second string sides.
