Not posted for a while but happy to be back. Last night a weakened 2nd team made the short journey over to Lees #oldham to play against 3cs 3rd team. Despite being outgunned on 4 of 6 boards & overall average, blue club 2 came away with a massive 5-1 win. Well played to all.

Back on the free nights where #chess and improvement are the top priority tonight. You know the time and place if you want to join us. Blue Club on Victoria Street from 715. See you there.

3rd team in action away at Glossop tonight so a quiet upstairs means plenty of boards available for you to come and play some #Chess yourself. Plenty should be there to challenge, learn, and have fun. Usual time, usual place. ♟️♟️♟️.

Congratulations to the #Lionesses on defending their trophy.

@bluentangerine7 As long as your opponent can't claim a draw after 50 moves without a take, we'd back you to get there eventually 😂

Just under two hours to make your plans for the evening.

Club is on tomorrow & a rare night where we have the upstairs room dedicated to learning. We have a special guest in Adam Scoular coming to give out a training session so well worth a visit to brush up on your #chess skills. Blue Club is on Victoria St Chadderton & meet from 730.

@bluentangerine7 Just don't trade down to a two bishop end game 😂😂

Having played chess at a young age, I know the transformational impact it can have on young people.

That's why today we're allocating £1.5m to help identify, support, and elevate top-tier players who have the potential to compete at a global level.

@TheOldhamTimes Drove straight through it. It was chaos and nearly got cleaned out by someone who didn't want to be caught.

Good evening #OldhamHour. Plenty going on here tonight. The main event being 1st team currently leading Swinton 3-0. Some new faces as well turned up with 12 non team players turning up so good night all round. How's Monday been for the rest of you?
