John is an Honorary Chief Tournament
director here and thus should ONLY be consulted in this area
( where he enjoys the challenge!) to take any enquiries regarding Law

Otherwise he is human and a EBU Tournament Director, very
much the poacher turned game-keeper, who likes nothing more
than a tough late night no-holds- barred scrap in the imps
room. |
