I get the whole plagiarism thing when one 'borrows' someone else's work, but is it actually possible to plagiarise oneself? Or is the problem here more to do with the fact that he's cheating his employer by submitting the same work twice, knowing it won't be noticed?
No, it's about cheating the reader. His employer manifestly doesn't give a stuff. And Ray manifestly can't be bothered either.
(But it's very simple: if what you're publishing has appeared before, you say so and you say where and when. There is literally no good reason not to.)
Ok, thanks for clearing that up. As I'm not an expert on English or British copyright law, I thought there might be a legal problem involved, such along the lines of the Times becoming the owner of the work once submitted and he was then stealing from his employer.
Obviously though recycling your stuff without saying so is just sneaky.
But he does say he is recycling and where and when ( same publication, at the time of the game) so what is the problem?

He says "the game" is "well worth repeating". Not a whisper about the notes.
(That's before we get on to his forty-year history of reusng his own and other people's notes unannounced, as if his notes here were of such stellar quality that he just had to repeat them.)
