This was a good evening of chess from two sides which were fairly evenly matched. Well played Victor. John achieved a rook for a knight advantage and gradually obtained the upper hand.My game involved a long middle game struggle. I could not find an advantaged position and we eventually both willingly agreed on a draw. Martin played in his first match tournament. I'm sure he will have learnt greatly from the experience. No stopping Andrew at the moment.From his success at Hastings he continues to play a more solid game. He overwelmed his opponent by using extra pawns to eventually obtain a Queen advantage.
This season we have now: won 4, drawn 1, lost1.

What a good result - especially so late in the season when regular players are suddenly ineligible. It shows we have had some good new players joining this year. Well done Andrew's team and Andrews both!!
Yes, Sue's right. A great result. Well played to all.
Hope you don't mind Andrew but I have edited your report ever so slightly by substituting in the half-a-point character, which I copied from the right-hand column on the blog and pasted into your report... in other words where you had used "1/2" I substituted "½", which I think is easier to read?
