JulesR Apr 2021 11:35am, 2 Apr 2021 26,091 posts	0 JulesR I’ve been dragging my heels in the Fetchaies match vs La Tour, but managed to win an exciting first game yesterday & am about to win the second as opp blundered when slightly up. Sadly that won’t affect the final match score which should soon be 16.5-19.5, but that’s a decent effort from Fetchaies against a proper chess club. Now the Fetchaies games are nearly sorted (Joe still battling hard in the last Runner’s game), I will try to get a new Fetchaies match arranged to start in the middle of April to allow league games to get underway.

Weath Apr 2021 8:59pm, 3 Apr 2021 624 posts	0 Weath A topsy-turvy game Cheg. Well played! Rd2 cost me at the end, rushed it without really thinking it through and couldn't see any way back.

JulesR Apr 2021 1:26pm, 4 Apr 2021 26,093 posts	0 JulesR I probably mean Rd1 but it was onto the open file threatening the 7th rank
JCB Apr 2021 1:46pm, 4 Apr 2021 2,366 posts	0 JCB Well done meglet, your ranking belies your ability to make a great game of it! I’m sure your ranking will be rising up in the coming weeks. [where are the easy games?]
SPR Apr 2021 1:46pm, 4 Apr 2021 33,812 posts	0 SPR I was looking at that game as well as a possible upset. When I looked, the move I noticed was the bishop takes pawn move on 37 that gave away the bishop. Other stuff could be harder to spot but that was the obvious error that game away the advantage in terms of pieces if not position.
