Meanwhile the Fetchaies upcoming match vs Alpha Female Serenity now looks very well balanced as opps have filled up their boards.
We have 15 players, alpha females have 14 with ratings very similar down the order.
If anyone else over rating 950 fancies joining in, then please click on the footer link before Friday as I’ll probably lock the registration then.
Thanks for supporting this match!

Few months ago I was doing OK Jules, only avoided relegation last month because of lower rating. Not sure why it's going poorly, deliberately tried a new opening this month to force thinking for myself earlier, worse results but not sure it was the wrong idea.
Going to just enjoy learning more and hope it turns around.

Thanks for the games Mole-thing, I think my not playing for 40+ years apart from teaching my kids the rules shows a bit. Must learn to look more than 1 move ahead. Enjoy your match against the AFS.

Thanks Chrisity. I haven’t played for 28 years. It felt quite uncomfortable being Black. I seemed to have only one decent move at each turn and I was quite relived when you played 13 Qf4.
Good luck in your other games.

I’ve locked our team for the Fetchaies Alpha Female’s match - I can always unlock it if they add extra players.
They’ve really strengthened their side and we’re now mostly outrated, but not massively so.
My Opp on board 2 doesn’t lose Daily Matches - she has a scary winning record and regularly beats 2000-rated opps. Brian’s looks very strong too, plus JDA and Bish have 1700s to play.
Match starts Saturday at 00:00, good luck everyone - 2 days per move but consecutive games.
