'A' Team Title Hopes Evaporate

The 'A' team's lingering Division 1 title hopes evaporated last night when we were beaten 3-1 by Cheddleton 'A'. We are now unable to catch Crewe 'A', who become Division 1 Champions for the first time. Many congratulations to them. The best we can now hope for is the runner-up spot, and we would need to win both of our remaining matches to achieve that. There were early draws for Petru and Glyn on boards 2 and 3, but losses on boards 1 and 4 for Alex and Lea sent us home with our tails between our legs.

Our penultimate match is on Tuesday, when we entertain Holmes Chapel.
