Slovenia & England triumph in European Senior Teams

Our database research
We continue to explore the career of Carl Schlechter and have many new findings, some of which we hope to post here later this year.
When we return from holiday, we intend to start writing here about the Hastings 1895 tournament (in which Schlechter played) because there are many problems about the record of that event which we are trying to resolve. All the tournament books have mistakes.
