Birthday Greetings GM Jonathan Speelman (02-x-1956)
A fairly substantial article on England's fifth (OTB) Grandmaster, Jonathan Speelman whose birthday it is today.
Hopefully you will find a number of photographs not currently lurking on the interweb thingy and not previously published.

Happy Birthday Jonathan Speelman.
I didn't realise Jonathan's middle name is Simon !!
A true titan of British Chess.
I have a copy of the book:
Jon Speelman's Chess Puzzle Book
2008 Edition by Gambit.
An excellent book and would recommend people buy it.
It covers all sorts of tactics.

I presume the earlier birthday tributes are being moved to this section in due course?

I've moved the ones I could find in the first few pages of General Chat. (It is, rather annoyingly, not possible to use the Moderator functions from the Search results.)Matt Mackenzie wrote: ↑Fri Oct 02, 2020 3:18 pmI presume the earlier birthday tributes are being moved to this section in due course?

I notice there are loads in Chess History that will keep you busy.
When is your birthday Jack?
