    The legendary Ginger GM summed up in one video... Crazy sacrifices, genius tactics, hilarious anecdotes, philosophical quotes and occasional relatable blunders. But above all just a top bloke.
    You should hire someone to clip up your videos and run accounts on TikTok and Instagram, I think they'd blow up.

      I dont normally reply here, but what you just said is a load of bollocks. When I say stuff it is an opinion, why would you think otherwise!?
      For a start I was there first hand witnessing the depressing shit around me. Seeing sad fat hooligans and desperate youths looking for something to do is hardly a revolution.
      Secondly you are mistaking stuttering for thinking before speaking. Something people need to do more.
      Finally I don't watch the news.
      What's you opinion anyway? Sit and judge behind the screen without doing anything or moving your fat arse out of the chair? ​@Drang_Gei

    Sorry to hear you came down with covid during the tournament. I was following your games (after the fact, I'm in New Zealand so the time zones don't align) at the time. I was excited when I saw the set up unfold in the last game, as it was reaching a similar position as one of my best ever games from the late 90s (you would have been proud as I sacked my way to victory! ha ha). Anyway, Hoping you'll be doing some recaps to go along with the Titled Tuesdays and that you're over the covid.

    Not sure why the cops didn't employ famous chess-boxers Williams and Trent to repel those rioters. Maybe with Arkell and Hebden as back-up. 🤣
    I was staying at one of Hull's out-of-town hotels and got completely stranded when the taxi companies refused to come into the city centre.
    But yes, I echo your observation about the large numbers of local kids joining in. Unlike the EDL thugs, they mostly had the sense to cover their faces. Very disturbing though, to see their eagerness and excitement while throwing bricks at the Police. Clearly no respect for authority, other people's property, or their own community. Parents and teachers are not stepping up to the mark in Hull.

      Immigration is an economic and social necessity in a country with an ageing population and a skills shortfall like the UK. You might believe (with some validity) that immigration numbers are too high - that's a political issue. We just had a democratic election, and the party standing on a platform of "net zero immigration" got 14% of the vote share. Throwing bricks at policemen is just a temper tantrum that your views aren't as important to the British public as you think they are.
      The irony is that the face of "taking back our country" is now a load of sniffed up thugs smashing up Greggs. You couldn't have done a finer job in toxifying your political cause.
