3 April 2013 - Central League Division 2 - Stirling B are champions!

Dunfermline B v Stirling B
Fred Ossowski   Douglas Rew   Stewart Brisbane   Bryan O'Rourke   Peter Horne	1647   1566   1562   1412   1261	1 - 0   ½ - ½   1 - 0   0 - 1   0 - 1	1659   1589   1575   1564   1543	Neil Irving   Dave Hewitt   Bill Cook   Tony Pitson   John Blake
		2½ - 2½

In terms of the order in which the games ended, Neil lost on time in a better position against Fred, then Tony equalised with a very solid win against Bryan. I should probably have won my game against Doug but he defended stoutly for a draw by repetition, by which time John was well on the way against Peter - whose resignation sealed the league for us. That just left Bill trying to salvage a tricky position against Stewart, which thankfully didn't matter in league terms (although both players appeared to think it did), and in the end Bill's flag fell. The final league table look like this:-

	Played	Won	Drawn	Lost	Game Points	Match Points
Stirling B   Dunfermline B   Dunfermline C   Stirling C	6   6   6   6	3   3   1   0	3   2   3   2	0   1   2   4	20   18   14   8	9   8   5   2

Congratulations to all involved!
