Well the A team had a good time with a 4-0 win v Nuneaton B.
I believe the D team lost by a similar score to Nuneaton A - ok but you were playing a top team.
But I've heard that the C team drew 2-2 with Coventry A and won with the handicap - well done guys ! Lets hear more about it !!
What happened to the B team ??

gets to d4 ..} 21. Rae1 Nd4 22. Qd3 Qd7 23. Nd5 Rae8 24. Be3 Nc6 25. b3 {Both
