    i hope karjakin crushes him…. short seems to be such a douche bag…

    Most of my chess friends still think of Short as a British chess hero. His glory days may be over but British chess is also on the decline.
    There is still some national interest when Short or Adams play. Good luck Nigel!


Got something to say?
