The 'B' team entertained Alsager 'A' last night, although it's probably more accurate to say they entertained us as we ran out 4-0 winners. The night started badly for Alsager as their board 4 failed to materialise, putting us 1-0 up without pushing a pawn. Max then got a very quick win on board 3, followed very shortly afterwards with a win for me on board 2. Glyn's game on board 1 wasn't so straightforward as he was under time pressure and in a distinctly inferior position, and looking to be heading for a loss. However, his opponent failed to follow up on his positional advantage and allowed Glyn back into the game. A Rook sacrifice by his opponent turned out to be unsound and Glyn went into an endgame the exchange and a pawn up. A series of straightforward moves allowed him to claw some of his time back, and with a Pawn on the 7th rank, supported by another Pawn on the 6th, and a Knight about to drop, his opponent resigned.
