In order to prepare for the Euro Club Cup I have been playing some Eastern European IMs in training matches online. If something like this was set up in Scotland it would be great.
Well, at least a few of us seem to think that our collective knowledge, commitment and energy (ie, the things we control) can perhaps be harnessed to better effect without waiting for the mythical money-fairy. In any case, I shall commit to getting some details from Greg Shahade on how the US Training Events work and put a proposal to interested top players and juniors in the next few weeks.
Cheers,
