We had a close match with Dunfermline with 2 games that went down right to the wire. The first game to finish was Stuart's game where he had a kingside attack and quickly won. Next to finish was Andrew's game where he agreed a draw with Calum. Peter was unlucky as he was winning his game but somehow it ended up drawn that's still a good result. Then we had my game that was quite wild with me hanging on by the skin of my teeth but at the end of it Ian was completely winning but unfortunately for...

Grangemouth kindly agreed to field Harry so the bottom board match up was closer in strength. A big thanks to Garry who bravely agreed to play in his first ever match for Badgers Brook against Grangemouth A. It was a close match played in a friendly spirit and in the end the better team won.

Tonight Stirling B hosted us for our Division 1 match. The game was quite close. We had white on boards 2,4 & 5. The first game to finish was Peter's game where he can back from a pawn down to draw his game. Next to finish was John who won his game after he gained material early on and duly converted. My game was next to finish where I got to a drawish rook endgame where I had an active rook but I struggled to make a breakthrough but after enough maneuvering I was able to provoke an error...

In this game having drawn black on the top boards each time I drew the colours I tried a new strategy and got Andrew to draw them on the basis he might be luckier. This proved a wise decision as he drew white for us on boards 1,2 and 3. As far as the games went the first to finish was Dougie Will who won on board 4 against John Smith. Then I think David Wallace won on board 5 against Graham Kerr where he seemed to win an exchange and duly converted it. Next to finish was board 1 where Andrew...
