Drunken Knights 2 Wood Green 10

: Created:19 Apr 2011 , by

David did not slay Goliath in last night's London league meeting between title aspirants Drunken Knights and reigning champions Wood Green. Drunken Knights fielded twelve players with a very respectable average grading of 216 but Wood Green with Luke McShane at the head of their team weighed in with an average of 234. In the Oxford v Cambridge Boat Races the heavier crew usually wins and this rule of thumb was not challenged on the chess board yesterday.
