Robin,
Good to see you've finally agreed with me.
The topic needs to be debated - widely - including the agm of CS.
Which will be why the president of CS allowed the motion to go forwards and appear on the agenda.
No doubt Steve Hilton will be at the agm and willing to be questioned on his motion.
Meanwhile I point out.
(1) there were no disabled players selected to play for Scotland in the Glorney - hence disabled access was not needed for a training event.
(2) The Glorney was a FIDE rated event and therefore these guidelines should have been applied - again if there were any disabled players selected for the visiting nations. Do you have any evidence of the venue being unsuitable for the visitors? or for the Scotland players and supporters?
