We had a great win last night against Alsager 0-4
First to finish was myself on Board 1 just after 8.30. Just before 9 pm Mario won on board 2 with a good solid display to make it 0-2. Phil had a shaky start but a mistake by Jess enabled Phil to capture a \rook. He took full advantage and played well to win quite comfortably 0-3. Keith on board 4 had all eyes on him for about 45 minutes, i can’t imagine the pressure he was under being watched by both teams. He played a very solid game to wear his opponent down 0-4 Well played Keith. Thanks to Mario for filling in for Alan and being our driver on the night.
The Incredibles are temporarily top of the league but Cheddleton have 2 games in hand. We have to play them twice in our remaining 3 games. They are the strongest team by far in Div 4, they out grade us by 600+ points. The question is do i enrol the help of the big guns from Crewe to win the league ie Harry, Gee or Jamie, or do i stick with the fab four. My team and Dave Hulme know what i will do.
Mario deserves a special mention. He has now gone more than 3 months without losing, 11 games in total. It coincides with the ink change in his pen. When you play me in the internal division 3 Mario don’t be surprised if your pen goes missing.
