Chandler, On the Bar Stool
by Geoff Chandler

On Women Appearing in Chess Tournaments....
Geoff harks back to the good old days

Look at them.

 

I mean really look at them.

You cannot have women like this parading up and down the aisles at a chess tournament.

These people are dressed up for a cat walk, not for defending the Ruy Lopez.

When I played as soon as you entered the hall you smelt the sweet sour
stench of body odour and all you heard was the ticking of the clocks.

Now all you can smell and hear is Chanel No.5 and the rattling of the jewellery.

How good are they?  How good are they?

Does that look like the face of someone who has spend the majority
of their young sweet life cooked up in some bedroom reading your Alekhine?

They spent 30 minutes studying the joys of Rooks endings
and 4 hours at the hairdresser.

God alone knows how long it takes them to prepare for a game.
12 minutes opening analyse and two hours putting on the make up.

In my day we never had girl chess players.

Well OK we had one or two but they certainly never had breasts!

Ah….finished, your round I believe.
