I haven't been keeping a particularly close eye, but is this the first time McShane has been number 1? Congratulations to him - pretty good going for someone with a full-time job outside of the game!

England's latest titled players are James Adair and Sam Franklin who have just achieved the FM title, and also WIM Sue Maroroa who has transferred from New Zealand to England.

English rated boys are as follows. The girl's list will be published shortly

Here are England's rated girls

Thanks Neville and Lawrence!
