On 24th July the Russian newspaper Moskovskiy Komsomolets published
an interview conducted by the newspaper's chess observer Eugeny Gik
with the former coach of the Russian national team, GM Sergey
Dolmatov, where the latter doubted achievements by the FIDE world
champion, Veselin Topalov. Dolmatov, in particular, stated:

"What Topalov is doing on the board these days, is beyond human
abilities. And I am sure that an interference from outside is taking
place."

Oh, purlease.


In the same interview Dolmatov also said:
"I have no reliable facts of the non-standard actions of Topalov..."

Translation: `I'm just making libellous **** up because Topalov is
rated 250 points higher than me and I'm jealous.'
