Magnus is back, back, back says Anand is not fit for his job

[@mrgyani]

I felt the same. I even commented so. It felt like Anand didn't do enough to handle the situation. And here it seems like Magnus even talked to him, but he still didn't do much as Fide vice president. But issue was - other players HAD been fined for the same violation. And then to allow Magnus would be unfair.

[@Vishal-]

Anand wasn’t officially in the picture unless, he appealed. Magnus wanted vishy to go out of his way and intervene in ‘the arbiters decision’ 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@jokeexplained]

Not a great idea to blame Anand when you are starting a business and India is your target.

[@Freestyle80]

yeah only Indians matter, everyone else is irrelevant how did a country become so narcissistic?

[@daspradeep]

people care about what they see and Anand’s ego was at display. The young Indians are not like the earlier generations

​ @Freestyle80 Magnus must be beloved in Norway. Djokovic in a God in Serbia. it is absolutely normal. When did hate against a country become normalised? A gang of you always hating on Indians is the bigger issue. Nothing wrong in a sportsperson being beloved in their country. But if the Indians do it, we have to face abuse left, right and centre!

As an Indian, I believe the real reason was that he didn't want to be caught in the crossfire between FIDE, Magnus, and other super GMs. It's a common Indian mentality to stay neutral for as long as possible 😅

Anand is head of ‘the appeals committee’. There was *no appeal* . So, how’s he involved? Indians with any self-respect, never ‘incentivise’ platforms like ‘take take take’

[@manimadhav3858]

Anand clarified the same inhis interview also. These people dont like Indians and jealousy the way chess is getting promoted in india, and scared of india players.

[@avijitbhadra6818]

Are you talking about all Indians ? Why should I listen to you ? Anand was involved . You haven't listened Anand 's interview . It's opinion about one person why are you bringing India into it. Magnus didn't say any negatives about India . Any we Indian love chess and we love Magnus as well as Anand.

[@srividhyak6833]

There's a problem of over the board cheating that none other than Magnus himself has pointed out. Outfits would matter in such cases and I see no problem with FIDE enforcing their rules. Rules are there to protect the players and no one is above them. Why doesn't anyone move the rooks along diagonals? Because of rules...

[@ahmedmaher8133]

@srividhyak6833 you comparing chess game rules with outfit items rules🤔 so strange.... what ? cheating... jeans help cheating!!! i am not against rules and decipline but the matter of appropriate clothes is so ridiculous he did wear appropriate clothes and he said ok i will pay the fine and change tomorrow that's reasonable there is only one game left in that day... and if that was really important they would never let him back in jeans the fide accepted that they were wrong by doing that..
