Traditional Januari in the Netherlands is predistined to the KNSB. For every dutchman the term KNSB has two meanings:
- Chess (Koninklijke Nederlandse Schaak Bond)
- Skating (Koninklijke Nederlandse Schaats Bond)
Both meanings have their priority members. I like them both. In chess the dutchmen does not have an appealing hero for a long time, but in Olympic years it seems we are also going to lose in skating. To qualify for the Olympic Games Dutch skaters have to use all their forces. At the time they need their skills for international competition they have consumed their powers.
So what seems to be the most accurate comparison between chess and skating?
The Dutch like it, the Dutch peopled it, but don't get the revenues.
It is the same with Darts for England!
