Thought For The Day

    'Call the substitute, call the substitute, the substitute, the substutute, call the substitute.'
                                                               {The Supervisor-No.54 Checkmate}

    Substitute, substitute, since when did a game of chess call for a substitute? Substitutes are for football, rugby, hockey, or any form of field sports, but not chess! And even if substitutes are permitted in the game of chess, just how many substututes are each player allowed, and when are they used? In the case of the white Queens Rook, he demonstrated the cult of the individual by making a move of his own, and that is not permitted. So when else might a substitute be brought on the board? I cannot imagine that many injuries would be incurred by the chess pieces on the board. Oops, the black Kings Bishop has just pulled his hamstring... call the Substitute! Off side ref, the black Queens Bishops Pawn in off side......... Foul ref, yellow card for the White Queens Knight!............. Call the substitute, call the substitute, the substitute, this blogger needs taking to the hospital, call the substitute.................!
Be seeing you...............I hope!
