Horsham Club Championship 2014-15: Kington – Mansson
At the start of this month, I played my Horsham club championship game against Paul Kington. Paul has a reputation for being hard to beat, so I was pleased to score a victory against him, especially as I had the … Continue reading
Horsham Club Championship 2014-15: Mansson – Higgs
I started my club championship game against Anthony Higgs on the 25th November, but as the game was adjourned, I did not finish it on the night, but a week later instead. After an unusual opening, my opponent played some … Continue reading
Horsham Club Championship 2014-15: Mansson – Roberts
Last Tuesday, I played Dix Roberts in the Club Championship. I was White and soon built up a significant advantage. However, when my opponent understandably tried to mix things up, I did not react in the best way. After a … Continue reading
Horsham Club Championship 2014-15: Mansson – Comley
I played my club championship game against Ian Comley last Tuesday. I managed to notch up another win and so I am on 2 out of 2 in the competition.

Horsham Club Championship 2012-13: Marshall – Mansson
Last night I played my Rook game against John Marshall. In a typical Najdorf position, John ran out of ways to improve his position, while I was able to build up mine. After swinging my queen across to the kingside, … Continue reading
Horsham Club Championship 2012-13: Cannon – Mansson
I’ve just agreed a draw in my adjourned Rook game against John Cannon. I had the better of the position for a while, but by the time we reached the time control, the position was drawn.
Horsham Club Championship 2012-13: Mansson – Roberts
Last night I was up against Dix Roberts in the club championship. The game saw me gradually building up a strong position against Dix’s Modern Benoni. Dix slipped up under the pressure, leaving me with a winning position. However, I … Continue reading
Horsham Club Championship 2012-13: Mansson – Harris
My third Club Championship game of the season was on Tuesday night against Mick Harris. The game started with Mick choosing the offbeat Budapest Gambit as Black. I managed to secure a small edge out of the opening, which increased … Continue reading
