Q Club entertained Whitehead neighbours, The Spartans and got off to a blistering start as Tyler McKee and Ryan McKillop won the first 2 frames but momentum was halted as Paddy Graham took out a very good 5 ball clearance to get the visitors back in the match. Alan Johnston got the Larne men 2 frames ahead again but the Spartans captain, Trevor Whiteside, stepped up with a reverse dish in frame 5 to narrow the gap again.
This was what the Spartans needed as they took the next 2 frames to go 4-3 up at the break, highlight being a classy Kenny English finish under pressure with his opponents balls over pockets.
With the match looking at half time like going all the way to a playoff it was the Spartans who stepped up and took 4 of the next 5 frames to seal the match. Captain Whiteside got his double as did the much improved Paddy Graham who also won a very credible 2/2.
The final will be Derek Whiteside's Galacticos against his big brother, Trevor Whiteside's Spartans. It promises to be an entertaining Friday night in Q Club.
We hope to have a live stream for the fans.
