Andy there are loads of Paisley players playing outside the Glasgow League and the CS President is a member of Paisley Chess Club There is also a lot of enthusiasm within the club as well so I'm at a loss with your comments. Perhaps your solution would be to turn up at club nights and engage with your fellow enthusiasts.
lets take this one at a time
1. what you define as failure is results, what I define as a success is the steadily improving strength of our Juniors thanks to our Junior Management team of Harry and Sherry with virtually no financial resources. Dont forget we successfully hosted the event AGAIN!
2. Failure by Adults , well speak to Hamish and Murad then with no financial resources. Admittedly there is a generation gap which will be filled over time caused by resources , austerity and general bias by successive politicians from the UK . But this time I'm not getting into politics I'm going to pull my resources into providing the best possible resources. Had we he resources we would get better results and us wood shifters have full time jobs as well.
3. Sorry you wont be at the AGM this year, genuinely, but I will be there causing the usual constructive mayhem without the accompanying negativity. My vision of CS isnt popular but at least I will be contributing.
Glad you will be playing over the board and talking to people, its what chess should be about

Failures by juniors : last place in Glorney Cup
Failures by adults: no IMs in last 20 years, finished below seedings in Olympiads for 20 years
I shall not be attending the online AGM this year, I shall be playing chess instead, OTB and actually speaking to people.
