There were few radical changes resulting from this year’s AGM. The meeting ran fairly smoothly with issues discussed and everyone having a chance to have their say.
The main outcomes of the meeting were:
· The club will now meet at 7.30pm (previously 8pm)
· Tournament matches will start at 8pm (previously 8.30pm)
· The new One Hour time control will be 60min + 10 sec
· In future, a scoresheet will not be published on this website if either player does not wish it to be published.
· Club fee structure for 2005 will remain as it was in 2004
· Minor changes to the rules for eligibility for the Maiden Trophy.

45 Minute tournament 2004 results in detail
“It’s very hard when you’re beating yourself” – Phil Kirkman commenting on Brian advising George of the winning move in their 45 minute clash
“I want to be in the Maiden” – PK, suggesting that the Maiden Trophy rules should be further loosened.
After it was mentioned that James might be a Maiden (contender in 2005), Phil replied “Just the thought of it makes me want to wash my hands”
“Spurs’ll go down before Bolton Wanderers” – Phil showing that if James goes home early there is always someone else to hog the quotes (Note 1: review this quote for veracity in 2007!) (Note 2: Brian owns up to being a Spurs supporter)
