QUB Clinch Consecutive 5-0 to Crush Clifton
For this fixture, the QUB captain decided that improvement was needed after his side took almost the full 3 hours to complete their perfect score against Fisherwick. Replacing Trinitarian Rory Delaney on board 3 was QUB's latest acquisition - 1972 FIDE-rated Vlado Spiriak. One other alteration was made, with Millar deciding to rest himself (keen to avoid burning out his natural genius for the game through over use of it) to make way for Damien Lavery.
Clifton House, meanwhile, were as strong as ever. Morgan, Annesley, Pilkiewicz, Mallaghan and Moreland all lined up to face the QUB Galacticos. However, not even this and captain Mallaghan's re-jigging of their board order (with Morgan dropping to board 3) could rescue anything from what was to finish as an embarrassingly one-sided reverse.
