We’ve been on a collectively dreadful run the last three weeks. Nine losses, one draw a solitary win. The A team drew with Bath B including a win for Phil on top board! The B team’s aspirations of a top two finish were ended by defeats to Downend B and then Bath C. The D …
Matches from w/c 16 Feb. 3 out of 4 ain’t bad
Apologies to Marvin Aday. Four matches this week, three wins and the only loss to the runaway division 1 leaders. The C team were away to table-topping Clevedon on Monday. Conceding an average of around 50 per board didn’t stop us and great wins from Alan, Piotr and Scott meant we eased to a 4-2 …

Matches from the week. D team win, F team don’t
Two matches to report this week. On Tuesday the D team completed the double over table-topping Hanham A and made it two straight wins after a tough first half of the season. Duncan hung in against Steven for as long as he could but the flag fell in a losing position. Piotr took what turned …

Back after Christmas
Three matches this week. Tuesday saw the F team at home against debutants Thornbury B. Match details below from Siobhan and co (thank you). The game on board 1 saw the ever-popular (sigh) London system deployed by Richard. It remained equal after the first few pieces were traded off and, whilst there were opportunities for …

D team crash and F team remain unbeaten (w/c 20 October)
Two matches last week. The D team took their unbeaten record to North Bristol but got a bit of a tonking going down 5.5-.5 with only Judd on top board managing to trouble the scorers. Match card here for those with a strong stomach. The positive was Jason played his first match for us, welcome …

Champions continue to win to extend lead at the top (03/04/18)
During the course of our successful season we’ve had some fair slices of luck along the way. I can count at least 3 full point swindles in my own games! This match, although it finished 4.5 – 1.5 in our favour, was a good example of this luck, although perhaps we should also give ourselves …
