The Horsham 2 match against Knoll Knights hangs in the balance, with the result swinging on the result of the top board game between Donald Macfarlane and Mike Forster. The score in the other games was two wins apiece.
UPDATE: As indicated by Anthony in the comments, a draw was agreed on board one, so Horsham 2 achieve a draw - an excellent result.
The results of the individual games are given in the table below:

Horsham 2 hosted Knoll Knights in division 1 while Horsham 4 challenged Crowborough 2.
Horsham 2 saw wins for Paul Taylor and Ian Comley balanced with a loss for Peter Harbott. We look slightly worse in the two adjudicated games for Mike Forster and Anthony Higgs...no feedback yet from overnight analysis!
I couldnt pick up on the Horsham 4 results but will post here as they come in

Horsham 1 suffered a defeat away to Lewes 1 last night. There was an early draw between Dix Roberts and Martin Costley, as the former was unable to dent the latter's solid Double Fianchetto formation. This was followed by defeats for Phil Stimpson and James Mansson, leaving Horsham 2.5-0.5 down with two to play. Unfortunately, no miracle occurred this time, as Dominic Lawson got the better of Paul Taylor. Anthony Higgs' win again Barry Maufe merely served to make the score respectable.

A win for the Paul Watson team against Bognor on board count and a conclusive win for the fifth team with yet another good turnout despite five players in our top team playing away.

Horsham 1 just managed to scrape a draw against St Francis and Haywards Heath 1 after the three unfinished games from the match were agreed to be one win for Horsham and two draws. The match, played on the Tuesday of last week (30th October), saw the first team confronted by a strengthened Haywards Heath outfit, who have acquired the services of former Crawley stalwarts Chris Baker and Robert Noyce.
