Nicholas deserves a chance doesn't he?

Ref: Here.

All the other players acknowledge that he is probably one of the best senior we have now. He is playing first board here. All he lacks is Jimmy's PR machinery, hidden deals and suspect games to boost ratings/position. He is real. Put him in front of the board and I believe he will show you that. So why was he bypassed? How come all those people who scream that they love chess are so silent on this? A real crime against Malaysian chess perpetuated right in front of their eyes and they cannot see. But they imagine all sorts of transgressions when legitimate and reasonable questions are asked.

Yes, Jimmy got one thing right in all this. His hidden "team" are really fools gone mad. Must be a subconscious choice of name.

So do we want to send a real chess player to the Olympiad or do we want to send a "PR expert" who barely plays Malaysian junior level chess?

Ps: You cannot let a fool Captain a reasonable team. He will steer it to the rocks.
