Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Pretty much everyone has a dress code, eg London Marathon if you want to enter the proper championship. It needs to be sensible and reasonable though. You'll (potentially) have exhibitionists wearing stupid stuff otherwise.

I may have a picture of my match-day trousers somewhere....

London Marathon Championship will be about the club kit. No one cares if a chess player wears jeans.

Yes about wearing jeans, but there has to be some sort of code. There was a case of a grandmaster showing up for a game in swimming trunks a few years ago.

Got something to say?
