The teams have both won all their four matches in the UK national league and are set to meet in the final round in May
The UK’s national league, the 4NCL, is turning into a two-horse race after last weekend’s third and fourth rounds at Peterborough. Wood Green, the 2024 and London League champions, and Manx Liberty, the 2023 winners whose core is a group of Romanian and Hungarian grandmasters, have both won all their four matches.
After four of the 11 rounds the leaders are Wood Green 8 match points (24 game points), Manx Liberty 8 (23.5), Cheddleton Savills Catering 6 (19), Barnet Knights 6 (18). The fixture list is geared to producing a climax, so that Wood Green v Manx will only occur in May’s final round, when both teams are likely to enhance their squads with strong GM wildcards.
