Kasparov is back.

Post by MJMcCready » Sun Oct 11, 2015 8:21 pm

I noticed on the BBC website earlier that Kasparov was playing in goal for Armenia in their match against Albania tonight. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/34501117

And there was me thinking he was noted for his attacking play!

There is a rumour that the Weinsteins are going to play a match. The problem is that there are only 7 currently FIDE Rated. Another changed his name and the another has been locked away for many years.

He he, I don't think Garrik would appreciate his real name being used.

And rather sad that Stewart felt the need - for no obvious reason - to introduce Raymond Weinstein into this.

On a more serious note, Garry was expressing his views on Vladimir Putin in The Times earlier in the week. Unfortunately I can't copy his piece across but those interested can find it at http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/opinion/t ... 581798.ece
