Yeah and Bong admitted he likes to play poker in a Beanie hat as well so it must be true .

Have you been sniffing empty tins of lemonade shandy again?

I have notched an early point against Qarabagh FC. We are up and running. I think we have a chance in this one.

Interesting history about Qarabagh FC.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qarabağ_FK

Great stuff, long necked one.

Our ratings are closer in this match, plus I like the idea of playing against supporters of teams that I've never heard of........

For the record, their guy that I liaised with on this hadn't heard of us either.......:rock:

Never heard of us? Outrageous. I feel the need to make it 2-0 asap.

Can someone please tell me how to get back to the club home page from the NSC Open pages.

I click on my user name on the top right, then go to the bottom right and click on clubs.https://www.chess.com/club/brighton-and-hove-albion-nsc

I think this is the direct link to our home page.

If I've got this wrong, blame JIM D for taking me down The Green Man, and drinking superb beer from Langhams.:rock:

As an aside, just think it's brilliant how we've competed against Zenit St Petersburg, with players, rating for rating, way above us, but each player has played, and is playing with their upmost.

Bloody brilliant!!

I have just issued a challenge to the FC St Pauli Chess Club on our behalf. They have existed for 70 years, are an accredited part of the set up of the club, play in local leagues and have a Chess Open. I've met a couple of them on my regular visits and once was going to have a game in their home Jolly Roger pub with someone but we got too pissed :)

Quick heads up.......

Second phase of NSC Open has just started, and once BHA Bob accepts the invite to The Seagull plate, that one will start.

Check on your messages / notifications on chess.com, chaps, and it's all there.

Looks like my Plate opponent is also still in the Open

Pete, you're correct, Mr Hairy is in both.

He got an invite into the plate last week,because he finished third in his group.

For some reason, the chap that finished second, has closed his account, therefore the system promotes Mr Hairy to second instead.

I left it as it was, so that both tournaments had an equal 12 in each. Not ideal, but he's ok with it.

You'll also notice Maffew is in, because one player never took up the invite despite repeated requests.
