Wythenshawe CSC completed a season double over Burst with a narrow 4–3 away win in Week 12, backing up their 6–1 triumph earlier in the campaign. They also picked up the gallon 2–0 to take the night’s honours overall, though the home side gave them a far sterner test this time around.

Paul Taylor got the visitors off to a flying start with a 2–0 win over Mike Westlake, hitting four 100+ scores and a 117 checkout — the highest finish of the night. Dave Wilson followed that up with a 2–0 win against Lindsay Rice, adding three tons and a 71 checkout.

Burst hit back strongly. Mark Leather edged Shane Lowe 2–0 in game three, and Mckenzie Evans made it level with a 2–1 win over Mandy Smith in a closely fought fourth. Evans landed a 48 checkout and two tons, while Smith put in a strong display with five 100+ scores of her own.

Game five saw Paul Brankin edge out Brandon Morgan 2–1 to put Wythenshawe back in front, despite Morgan hitting three tons and a 76 checkout, but Burst hit back once more with Jimmy Murphy’s 2–1 win over David Peploe. It all went down to the final game of the night, and the match was secured for Wythenshawe when Dave Massey beat Joe McAuley 2–0.
