"We gave Fareham 'A' a big scare this evening.
Bd 1 in an unclear position Pete lost on time forgetting to monitor his clock.
Bd 2 Ed took a draw offer with 2 mins against 1 min left a pawn up and just about to play a winning move.
Bd 3 I took a draw offer - earlier I was much better and had good winning chances.
Bd 4 Mark played a bit passively in a rook and pawn ending two pawns up and his opponent managed to escape with a draw.
Bd 5 Adrian was a knight for two pawns up and lost another pawn in a combination, when low on time, allowing his opponent to escape with a draw.
Bd 6 Darren a little better accepted a draw offer.
Great to see the whole team playing well. Just needed confidence to get over the line in some games.
Overall great result - nearly epic."

We gave a high rated Cosham A team a run for their money losing 2-4. They proved a bit too strong on some boards.
A good match - well played Cosham.
Board 1 Pete scored his first ever draw against John Wheeler a long time stalwart of the Portsmouth League. Pete sacrificed the exchange for position: texted me this morning that he had a forced mate in 6. The challenge is to find the win OTB in limited time. I hope to show the position and full pgn of game when provided.
Board 2 Ed said he went down in the end game to Dave Cordner.
Board 3 The Editor drew: Richard Purchades said I played a good defense; nice compliment from a 1944 rated player.
Board 4 Mark won well against Andrew Smith (Cosham captain).
Board 5 Adrian, last to finish in time scramble, had Matthew Atkins king in open ground with Queen and rook attacking. But Matthew played well interposing his rook and Adrian swopping off incorrectly allowing a pawn advance in a Queen ending to decide the game.
Board 6 Darren played a poor opening allowing Martin Banfield to pin his knight against Darren's king; was a rook up in no time.
We did not have Mike Krawczuk on board 1 for this match having to attend a funeral. But Cosham did not have David Pye - one of the strongest Hampshire chess players.
