| Week 13 |
|
Monday...A full strength A Team set course for Worksop A, to solidly, firmly, resolutely consolidate the previous week's win against Chesterfield A but by the end of the night it was clear this season is being played out in the shadow of the Curse of the Chuckle Brothers: to you, to me, to you. 2½-5½. Jeremy the only winner and 0/3 on the top three boards. (Andy hasn't commented that this is worse than the B Team managed the previous previous week.) Then...Wednesday Chesterfield A go and draw with Ecclesall A. To me. Also on Monday the D Team travelled to Woodseats B, on the buses by all accounts, unfortunately defaulted on top board but still managed a 3-3 draw. Wins for Marek, against Bill Ward, Milan, and Ian C. Wednesday...snow like the dusting of icing sugar on a Swiss Roll meant that civilisation almost collapsed. In the face of this elemental onslaught the B and C Team postponed for a better tomorrow.

Ecclesall A drew with Chesterfield A?? Seems like every week our chances of staying up take a blow. At this rate, we're going to have to finish above the A team to ensure top flight chess next season.

That would be churlish Paul, but yes, it was less than we managed! I think that we need to be beating Barnsley as well as Clay Cross now if we're to have a chance of staying up.

16pts from our last 8 games should do it...
