Horsham 2

Horsham 2 recorded their first win of the season with a thumping 4.5-0-5 result over Brighton 2 last night...

Horsham 2 travelled down to Eastbourne on Friday and came away 1.5-1.5 on the night - all is still to adjudicate for with one result outstanding...

1066 pun? Surely not... Horsham 2 picked up some handy game points against the perennially strong Hastings first team last night...

Horsham 2 fancied their chances against a Lewes team who were missing 2 of their top 4 players, but the visitors deservedly triumphed in some interesting games.

Horsham 2 v Eastbourne I has had to be cancelled due to the blizzard! New date to follow..

Not a very impressive headline but we were up against a very strong Worthing first team.

Anthony Higgs scored a good win against Brighton's board one, Luke Rutherford, in the recent Horsham 2 match against Brighton 1. The game is given below, with some notes by Anthony.

From the Mid Sussex League website:

Board 2 is adjourned. A predictable win for Brighton & Hove 1 who greatly out-gunned their visitors, but a noteworthy win for Anthony Higgs over Luke Rutherford on board 1.

Anthony supplied the following report:

The Horsham 2 match against Knoll Knights hangs in the balance, with the result swinging on the result of the top board game between Donald Macfarlane and Mike Forster. The score in the other games was two wins apiece.

UPDATE: As indicated by Anthony in the comments, a draw was agreed on board one, so Horsham 2 achieve a draw - an excellent result.

The results of the individual games are given in the table below:

Horsham 2 hosted Knoll Knights in division 1 while Horsham 4 challenged Crowborough 2.

Horsham 2 saw wins for Paul Taylor and Ian Comley balanced with a loss for Peter Harbott. We look slightly worse in the two adjudicated games for Mike Forster and Anthony Higgs...no feedback yet from overnight analysis!

I couldnt pick up on the Horsham 4 results but will post here as they come in
