Starts today and Scotland are in action against Slovenia in Round 1.

The official site http://www.euro2019.ge/ but BEWARE my virus checker (McAfee Web Advisor) states that the site is classed as VERY RISKY with high risk of phishing. May be best to avoid using this site for the moment.

Results can be found, as normal on Chess Results http://www.europechess.org/wp-content/up...19_reg.pdf

They seem to be haveing issues with the board. I am guessing someone has kicked a cable out....

We lost 3-1 to Switzerland but we could have had a 3-1 or 3.5-0.5 win with positions on board. Alan had pinned a black bishop on a6 but allowed black to wriggle out, Hamish had both knights swarming over the black king, graham should have sacrificed his a pawn for a blockade and Murad crashed through on the f2 square but missed the win.

Lost to Italy from good positions. However they are more active than us. My opponent had 224 FIDE rated games in last 2 years !
We are only one place behind seedings. Big match v Kosovo tomorrow. Pity that we have some 15 SCO IMs/GMs unavailable.
