Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone on this site who lives close to Harrogate fancies playing a club game this coming Saturday afternoon?

It starts at 2.30pm
It's for my team (Doncaster)
Time controls are, I think, 1 hr 20 mins plus additional time after 32 moves... or something similar.

You'd have to make your own way there... I already have a car full, 5 people.

If anyone's interested please PM me and I'll provide address details.
You'll be reimbursed for travel expenses.

Thanks... sorry it's short notice, I've only just been notified!

Have you tried the English Chess Forum? There aren't many "real" chess players on Red Hot Pawn.

I've had a couple responses on here saying they would play, just can't this weekend.

It's just too short notice, we'll have to default 1 board... Best win my game!

Most competitions have a rule that say if you know ahead of time that you're going to default a board, then it has to be the bottom board.
Many is the time that I've played in a match where the person who was supposed to play on the top board has mysteriously not turned up! In one case I found out a few days later that the person had moved out the area some weeks before!

Yes we defaulted our bottom board.
Didn't matter though, we still won 5.5 - 2.5 🙂

I was the only loss on our team apart from D. Fault..... wheeeeee!!!!
