Match report by Giles Stanton. This was a cracking match with a very tense finish. Notts turned up two players short and with an early win Worcs had a 3 point lead. So Notts had to chase the points, which they did with a vengance. Near the end with two games playing Worcs were a point ahead with one game looking a draw and the other with advantage to Worcs. In both games had Worcs players got into time trouble. John Varilone having sacked a piece to get good activity and extra pawns, handled the time pressure well and mated his opponent to take Worcs over the winning line. In a same coloured bishop and pawn ending, board 5 was agreed drawn.
