If every adult Chess Scotland member committed to donate just 25p a week to the fund how much would be raised in 1 year? Would banks accept a standing order for such a small amount without charges?

Andy,

Adam has confirmed for a FIDE tournament it is the £1.50 fee for the CS (or other national members). For graded tournaments it is £6.00 for non-members of the ECF

PostForum: General Chess Chat   Posted: Fri Aug 05, 2011 8:16 am   Subject: Questions about AGM
Are non-members allowed to attend the AGM?

If so, are they allowed to speak?

What is the capacity of the venue for the AGM?

Has any provision been mad ...

The hypothetical situation you describe should not arise.

The organiser of a FIDE rated tournament in England is required by ECF to ensure that all ENG players are members of the ECF.

Alex said it will be an ECF management board decision.

I don't know when the next board meeting is although they do have teleconferences these days via Skype (?). It is also currently the second we ...

Money

I sympathize with Matthew's position.

Matthew however has asked to transfer. CS has not asked Matthew to transfer.

Some posters on this board seem to want a "Fischer" transfer where Matthew is given eligibility after ECF "revoked" his eligibility against the wishes of ECF and FIDE w ...

As I am sure Alex is aware, it is not just the admin fee involved. There may also be a transfer fee and compensation payable to the federation the player is transferring from.

In Matthew Turner's c ...

How many Scottish players are seriously trying to obtain title norms?
