Cumnor played Mark Sayers on board 1. The result was a draw.
Subsequently George
Spalding informed me that Mark Sayers was not permitted to play in
this match due to his
grade being over 140. Unfortunately I thought the ruling was grades
under 145, not under
140 were able to play down as many times as possible. Apologies.

Roger Thetford 18 Jan: Result amended so that
board 1 is drawn (for
grading purposes) but an adjustment is applied so that the match
result is 4-2, as it would have been if Cumnor had defaulted board
