Perhaps in the eligibility clause we should simply add: anyone with SCO grandparent is SCO but cannot play for teams.
On a different topic, the invitations are now out. The travel fund seems to apply to faraway teams eg NZ but not SCO. Also no chartered flights specially arranged, so flight costs will be sky high on 1st and 15th august with 150 countries all flying same day. Our funds cannot cope with this. JR usually likes appearance fees, instead may have to pay to play. Several other IMs/GMs eg Colin also might not want to pay to play.
Perhaps it will be the rich bankers team that plays eg Alan Minnican, Chris Morrison.
