§ The partial crosstable in the 1990/91 BCF Yearbook (page 72) shows both Wojtkiewicz (no.9) and Smagin (no.20) winning round 2 games against no.195 (Christine Flear). One or both must be wrong but there is no way of telling which.

Date Notes
25 July 2021 223 games from the bulletin, via ChessBase. I have added dates and round numbers where I can (in about two thirds of the games). There were errors in the names which I have endeavoured to correct. The part-crosstable is based on the one that was published in the 1990/91 BCF Yearbook (page 72). That too featured some errors which I have tried to correct as far as possible. I really need a copy of the bulletin to complete the job and provide dates and round numbers for all the games. Hopefully it will have a complete crosstable. Can anyone help?
26 July 2021 Two games added: (1) David McAlister sent me the score of T.Clarke 1-0 A.J.Cohen, rd 7, which he found in the Belfast Telegraph - many thanks, David - and (2) the game Rahman-Basman, rd unknown, which I found on chess games.com. Brian Denman also confirmed that the game P.O'Neill 1-0 F.Kwiatkowski was played in rd 8 and that Black was indeed Feliks Kwiatkowski (ChessBase has a different player with a Polish name but that was an error on their part). Thanks, Brian. Running total now 225 games.
30 July 2021 Paul Georghiou has helped add a considerable amount of detail to the crosstable in terms of names, countries and scores where players played a limited number of games, plus correcting some errors in the BCF Yearbook results. Thanks, Paul.
31 July 2021 Minor amendment to the game Rahman 0-1 Basman (rd not known). Basman's recent book, co-authored by Gerard Welling ("U Cannot be Serious! Avant Garde Strategy in Chess") gives White's forename initial as A, as opposed to chessgames.com which gives White's forename initial as Z. There were three Bangladeshi players called Rahman in this tournament, with initials A, M and Z. I'm inclined towards Basman's evidence so have attributed the game to Almadur Rahman.
21 November 2024 The crosstable, until today, showed a player called Dale C Taylor, while the PGN file had two games played by David Taylor. None of which is correct! The player in the crosstable, who played the two games, is Daryl C Taylor. Now corrected.
