In the Berks League, results are often posted once the match captains get home. Sometimes even faster. This one for instance looks as if it might have been posted from the match itself. (matches start 7.30pm ish for a three hour session, results were posted at 10.49pm the same night)

The 4NCL has always been poor for displaying results and league tables even in the venue itself. Today, players in teams in the promotion and relegation pools had to rely on match captains building their own league tables, as the most recent available update was still Saturday.

Other events such as Hastings, the British Championships, the London Classic, e2e4 etc. are able to post results as they happen. Why is this difficult for the 4NCL?
