Fixtures & Results 2009-10

Olton A v Olton B
Phil Holt persevered on board one against Richard Reynolds, whose precarious position finally fell apart. Richard Smith and Trevor Holt went all-out on board 2, but the most unlikely of results became ever-more feasible and the game was drawn. Gary Hope looked to have some pressure on board 3 against Alan Lloyd, but a few careful side-steps later and it was a win for Alan. Mark Cundy and Dave Cheshire on bottom board seemed destined for a draw from the off, but they decided to play a few moves first.

Olton v Banbury
Richard Reynolds on board 2 got into a messy position, but appeared to have the advantage at least for a while. Gary Hope on board 3 went a pawn down, but held on or a draw. Trevor Holt on two had a typically complex position which seemed fairly blocked, but he broke through and went on to win. Board 2 took a turn for the worse, but was held out for a draw. With Dave Cheshire recording a safe draw on bottom board, the match was won.

Olton v Solihull
Richard Reynolds had the worst of the game on board 1, but held on for a draw. Trevor Holt started with a promising attack on board 2. Later, he lost his way and was eventually pushed back. Gary Hope on board 3 had a little defending to do, but eventually drew. Robert Reynolds on four had the better of the position, but it looked increasingly blocked. He eventually broke the deadlock and won.

Kenilworth v Olton
Trevor Holt blundered a piece on board 2 after a few moves. Richard Reynolds on board one agreed a draw early on and Robert Reynolds got into difficulty on bottom board.
