P&B Chess League - Season 8 coming soon….


Recommended Posts

madwullie beats markf268 in the cup. 
Really awful game, probably because neither of us had a fucking clue what was going on with the back line. 
War of attrition in the end that the analysis tells me I missed 5 opportunities for mate. Not a scooby about that at the time. Once he lost his queen it was an uphill battle but mark thankfully resigned or we'd still be playing when the draw for the next round was made. 
I was pretty much behind before I worked out what was going on!

The resignation would likely have come earlier if it wasn't the cup - wanted to see if I could drag out enough of a mistake for a draw, but there was no hope left.

Happy to get you involved in the leagues next season ewan

Also, if someone wants to drop out of the cup, you can take their place 

I (flamingalah01) was about to say I’ve scratched and it’s a walkover for gcarlos but you can give ewan my place.

An away trip to Australia.  That’s me in quarantine awaiting flamingalah01 to accept the challenge and let me out.

I’ll be in Australian time watching some of the tennis over the weekend if you have a time early morning UK time that you’d be online.

Hope you took out travel insurance as I’m (flamingalah01) not participating. So you’ll either have a walkover or a revised tie against someone else.

Gordon EF beats el_scorgio in the 'now it's a diddy cup because yer oot' cup. Away manager opted to go out all guns blazing and left too many gaps at the back, resigning a few minutes before the whistle at 4-2 down...

After the announcement of two tough away fixtures back to back, manager GordonEF, was not pleased but stopped short of claiming there was an agenda against his side. "Two away games in a row, including a top of the league clash? Am I saying there's a conspiracy against my team... I'll leave that for others to decide. But the PBCL has some questions to answer. That's all I'll say on the matter."

If we win the cup tie: "This is a great boost for the boys' confidence and we can carry that into our upcoming league matches, with the next round to look forward to."

If we lose the cup tie: "The boys are free now to focus on the bread-and-butter of our league matches."

If anyone is after playing more competitive matches, you can represent Team Scotland. There are some matches starting on Sunday if you fancy the chance of pulling on that national shirt and go toe to toe against a bunch of foreigners.  Beef2711 & I are there (that I know of) ready for battle. Team P&B should unite for country.

Could you start the cup tie?

Or are you taking the Dundee pitch unplayable approach?

Hang on and I will just change my user name to Iwelumo4yards.
