I don't have the final standings.
We played 8 rounds, two games each round.
I won the tournament with 26 points, Shane McCosker got the second place with 22 points.

If my calculations are correct, I win the European Cup with 62 points.

The Irish Open was played in great spirit this year not a bad word said no disputes of worth...........some great contests even late in the evening with the brilliant Sergio showing his level of play,a top top player...........a really nice guy to boot and a gentleman.Frank Moran did have him possibly in a computer loss but it ended in a draw.....i have to say Frank played his best draughts this time around.....We were delighted also with the company of Paul Bryan USA......who gave a good account of himself.Irish home based Champion Shane Mc Cosker was never bowed in this contest retaining his crown.Billy Kelly at last wins his Open Senior title from good friend Con Boyle and Julian Mc Guinness had some to spare in the Inter Section.

I'm sorry Igor, the crosstables do not work for the Irish Open! I get a blank page! A sample of other opens work fine!

I have no problems downloading the Irish Open Crosstables from Igor's site.

However, for anyone unable to find them, if you send me a PM with your email address I will email a copy to you.
