Suffolk Chess

The top two teams met on Tuesday, resulting in a 3 - 1 win for Ipswich A against Bury St Edmunds A.   On paper, the losers were the stronger team.   The win gives Ipswich A a two-point cushion at the top.

At the other end of the table, Sudbury look to be doomed to relegation, having lost all six matches played so far.

Team	Played	Won	Drawn	Lost	Points
Ipswich A	6	4	2	0	16
Bury St Edmunds A	6	2	3	1	14
Ipswich B	6	4	0	2	13
Ipswich C	6	2	2	2	12½
Manningtree	6	1	3	2	11
Sudbury	6	0	0	6	5½

With four matches each to play, there's still little in it; the top four teams are separated by only 3½ points.

Shaun Munson (Ipswich A) is unbeaten with four wins and two draws from his six games.
