Hugely entertaining end to the @4ncl season - even after two days from @GSharks4NCL which will become the stuff of legend (taking points from both the leaders, but more from Wood Green) had already clinched the title for Manx Liberty - many congratulations! I'm also buoyed.. 1/2

... by 3 superb wins for my @WhiteRoseChess colleagues. Great team effort, but special mention for fast improving Thomas Carroll's 3/3, Daniel Alsina Leal who missed the same by a whisker on Board 1 and awesome power chess from @andy_rekt_chess. Almost as if I wasn't missed 😉

I returned to competitive chess this year with the very strong @KingstonChess team that has already won five trophies this year including the Surrey and Thames Valley league titles and now also the Alexander cup.

Thanks for everyone's support during the British C'ship! I enjoyed coming out of retirement for my first Swiss tournament in 3 years ♟👴🏻 Obviously gutted to have come within 1 move of winning the title, but this was Gawain's year. Many congrats to him and Shreyas! 🏆

‘Mick Lynch said “Nationally, we need to put a Labour government in to get the Tories out, but we also need a strong voice that will put the north-east first, whatever government is in power. That’s why the RMT and our north-east region is completely behind Jamie’s campaign.”’
It’s a big deal to have the backing of this union. Thanks to Mick and the @RMTunion for their continued support.
My politics are simple. I believe Britain should be run in the interests of the people who do the work.

Epsom's @IMPeterLarge wins in the last round to score a stupendous 6.5/9 at the @ReykjavikOpen. He wins the over-65 category prize by a wide margin - huge congratulations to him and to the winner @BogdanDeac08, who won his final game to reach 7.5/9.

The 4NCL Spring GM Round Robin 2024 starts on Saturday. Games will be shown live on @lichess at lichess.org/broadcast/4ncl-s…. The image shows the players and the round times. Should be a cracker!
