Before this match Macclesfield B already had an unassailable lead in SDCL Division 3. Nevertheless they fielded their strongest team against us and they proved irresistible. I struggled from the outset in an irregular opening. I survived and even had an advantage going into the endgame but I had spent too much time keeping my head above water. Eventually I blundered into a knight fork during my last few seconds and had to resign. I didn't see enough of the other games to comment on them but congratulations to Terry on managing a draw against Tony Soames, that is no mean achievement.
Our season is now complete, so I would like to thank all those who have played for our D team for their hard-fought contributions. Finishing second to such a strong team is an excellent performance.
