Our main problem was on the higher boards - we just didn't produce the goods yesterday. Alan Tate and Mark Orr couldn't get anywhere, Nicol fought hard, whereas I played a horrible 13th move (inexplicable as I understood the position very well) after which Robert played very well to finish me off. The top 4 boards are where I would expect our main chances to lie, but BA neutralised us very easily.
