Double Defeat

Last night was a disppointing night for the Club as, for the second week running, we lost two matches in a night.

Ashby 2 were beaten 3-1 by Leicester University 2, with only draws on boards 1 and 2 by Tom and Steve to show for our efforts. John Howlett, playing on board 3, made a speculative piece sacrifice, which turned out to be unsound and cost him the game.

Ashby 5 were hammered 5-1 at Anstey 5, with only a win for James Foster on board 5 preventing the whitewash.
