1st Result at Bury is in and Lewis keeps the roll going for Blue Club with another win. 1-0.

And the roll continues with Dave K bringing home another win. On 4 boards that means a point is guaranteed minimum as the score rolls over to 2-0. To amend my earlier mistake it is 3rd team playing for clarity.

Last nights conclusion proved too late for admin. A run of 7 board wins comes to an end with 2 heartbreaking defeats for Jon and Jeff. But with the earlier wins, a very respectable away draw is earned by 3rds at a very tough Bury team. We go again soon. 💪♟️.

2nd team in action tonight when they take on Ashton Community Chess Club 1st team here at Blue Club. Plenty of social boards available but potentially utilising the bar area downstairs to avoid disruption to the games.

Evening all. Latest scores on the doors are 1-0 to Blue Club as Robin puts in a shifton board 2.

Evening all Oldham Hour. Been a while since we checked in. We are still here. Hope the community are well. 🫶.

2 more results fly past as Terry on Board 6 and Lewis on board 5 both register wins to put Blue Club on the brink.

A defeat on board 1 for Armand keeps Ashton Community Chess Club in the hunt for a draw. Looks like Dan B has also gone wrong somewhere and with less than 8 minutes on his clock Jon Coupe looks like the one to bring this home.

Dan B and his opponent shake hands on a draw after both promote pawns. MBC steal the win with a half point to reach the magical 3.5.

After black played bg4, can you spot what white has lined up next? #Chess

More action tonight with 2 games over 10 boards. Plenty of non playing members coming too so come along and meet them and play them. Usual place, Victoria St, Chadderton from 730.

Apologies on the lack of correspondence. Admin was last to finish in the 10 board in action over 2 games. Blue club 1 take a satisfactory 3-3 draw whilst blue club 3 are defeated 2.5 to 1.5.

Good luck to all you year 11's in #Oldham and beyond and a special good luck to our very own Lewis with your results today.

Good evening all at #oldhamhour. Happy #BankHoliday from all here. Having a well earned week off after a manic and successful summer season. How everyone one is well and rested?

2nds are on the road to Northenden tonight. That means the upstairs is free to play and be as analytical as we like. Admin has one game he wants to look at if you fancy coming down and watching or playing a few games. Same place, same time. 730, Blue Club, Victoria St. ♟️.

Evening all at #oldhamhour. Plenty going on with us tonight. Quiet night here but 2nd team playing over in Northenden. How are you all this evening?
