Nola Dobson KO Competition 2025/26
Quarter Final Draw
Andy / Charles v Harvey / Richard
Belinda / Shelagh v Anne / Jean
Gosia / John v Larry / Martin
John P. / Simon v Denise / Jeff
Our first game has been played after initial forfeits from Harvey & Richard didn't materialize when the latter walked into the venue and declared he was fit to play!
Simon had initially used the computer system to play 7 tables and had to amend to 6 tables when Harvey turned up at 1 minute past 7.00pm.
The actual play was even over the first 16 boards but then 17-22 were all positive for the eventual winners, Andy & Charles. The rest of us were just pleased that Andy had turned up with his wife's famous Sausage Rolls to satisfy the palates of our most hungry members except Larry, who complained about the crumbs all over the floor which the Hall authorities were not happy with!
Back to the competition and next week the all ladies match is due to be played, unless any problems occur. It has been brought to my attention that it is Nigel and Simon that make the most mess, brushing the crumbs from their mouths whilst shouting at people to shut the kitchen door because they will be in a draught.
Good luck to both pairs.
The games should be played over 24 boards unless the 20th board has not been played before 9.30pm and hence 20 to be played. If a hand is passed, it will still count as one of the games.
Thanks.
