Nigel Davies promises: "I will be drawing on my experience to address issues which affect club players. My views tend to be a bit different, which is why they may come as revelations to the audience (thus the name of the show, 'Nigel's Radio Revs'). It is worthwhile noting that people can send me questions by using the address on the contact page at my TigerChess web site."
