Horsham 2 away to Worthing

Horsham 2 ventured down to Worthing for the halfway mark of the season. Unfortunately I missed this game with Roy volunteering as captain on the night. A very close loss of 2.5-1.5 against a strong team, disappointing that it only came down to one board in the end.

A comment from Ian about his game below.

Ian faced a strong junior on board 4 who is certain to get stronger and stronger. His opponent chose a tricky version of the 2 Knights against the French which Ian navigated through without being entrapped but having a damaged pawn structure in an early endgame. After 76 moves it was finally drawn.

And a busy month coming up with 4 games within as many weeks. Next game away to Crowborough Fri 28 Feb.
