Over in Shrewsbury, the pressure is building on bowlers who have entered the full-house £4,450 Coors Meole Brae Open but have yet to pay their entry fees.

“Even though the competition is full, there are still 96 who haven’t paid their entry fee of £15,” said Ade Jennings at the weekend on behalf of his father Barry, the promoter.

“If you’re one of these we need your fee as soon as possible – we have people on the reserve list already who we will not hesitate in putting in.”
