(FIDE ratings if available, else Scottish)

It was a very tense match with Murad’s second win being the last game to finish.

The games were played at 15minutes + 10 seconds which was much more civilised than Monday’s 10minutes + 2s.

Next round we are playing the London School of Economics (LSE)!

Bon Accord is also entering the 4NCL which is being held online this year, 4 boards.

Expressions of interest welcome, I (Hamish) am happy to organise multiple teams.
