sorry 41d should be batsmen

Don't think you're right with the plural. I think its an anagram of BANTAMS, which gives you BATSMAN
Closing date approaching. We need to post shortly!!

Hi folks, I'd really appreciate your help on the last few I need to finish as it's due in very soon!

28acc - snooker player gleans these of cushions perhaps
36acc - laid on a cheltenham hero
45d - let crab rot
90 and 68 - he wore the oak leaf not a thin holly
35d - a lane in yorkshire for your ball arm
43acc - these rovers have their home in cork
53acc - sounds like the golf commentator is in wonderland
76acc - start of 45d is a first for holmes

I know I'll be kicking myself when I hear the answers but I've been stuck on these for a while!

Spelling for 43ac should be GLEN as in Glen Rovers. Its late, as closing date is tomorrow. But just in the off chance that some entries have still not been posted, I thought I'd correct error.
Good luck
