Hi Nick, am a bit confused. I don't disagree with your comment on the ECF, but I thought you were a senior official of a rival chess federation? Which means your comment is just politics. But I'm sure you've left that federation and that's not the case.

I'm an official of The Gambia Chess Federation.

I don't consider Gambia (or Bermuda) to be a rival to the ECF.

I consider myself at liberty to comment on ECF matters.

I also consider myself at liberty to comment on your post, so I shall do so.

I'm surprised and a little disappointed that there has been no reference to this, an excellent development.

"The ECF Board has appointed Robert Stern to fill the vacant position of Chairman of the Governance Committee."

You obviously don't read my posts then

Sorry, missed that. It didn't raise any comment there either!

True enough, I wasn't sure where to post it, but ECF AGM Aftermath seemed the right place, given that was where the vacancy came to light!

I wish Robert the best of luck, will be interesting to see what he thinks of the GC members and indeed the ECF generally - he looks to have the right kind of credentials, although I know lots of lawyers and when they specialise they aren't always great in other areas - I am sure he will be an improvement on his predecessor, just shows what can happen when posts are left vacant
