JohnQuinn Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 you need people who think for the whole of Scotland, not just for their own gains john honest men your kidding me on we all lie tae our woman You’re 100% right though about the whole country being considered, for that reason the 12 men need to come country wide and be able to compromise, done for the benefit of the Doos and no tae meet their own ends. On the subject of transportation the whole of Europe are basically using the wrong transport if you take on the view of some. Let’s no beat about the bush as soon as Lan Fed got new motors the SNFC blocked using Geraldy motors with some of those baseless arguments I referred to earlier, yet they are used by the vast majority of countries across Europe in higher temperatures week on week than we get, but they are All wrong and a few Scotsmen know better, it’s beyond me.

At £1,000 LESS than we were being charged at the time by McCord, it got flung out without as much as a discussion and the committee came up way the “only wicker baskets can be used†nonsense. This week saw the club take a Massive step backwards. If Davidson didn’t want to step up or was unable to do so then John Leggate should have been instated as President until the next AGM absolutely no way a vote should have been taken on it. Only voting should have been for a new JVP to take John’s place, that is Protocol and they know that as well as I do. Of course all these things Might have been discussed but I was sent to the wrong venue, clearly imo my views weren’t welcome if every other member got the right information and I was the only one told it was at Newmains. Given no one else did turn up there I can only assume I was the only one told Newmains and how that can come about accidentally I cannot figure out.

JohnQuinn Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 we could always gee the secretary mare money Better to give Mary a good president to work with that will take the club forward. She is a very very able Sec imo and would be a loss to the club. Mind ye don’t get the best on the cheap, to me she is worth every h’penny of her salary.

Who's transporter is it that sits at Mary's house? With SNFC plastered all over the back? Excuse my ignorance. I thought that was the snfc transported.

Rebus Posted June 12, 2021 Report Share Posted June 12, 2021 Yes it was good forward thinking but extremely disappointed that the committee opted for one in favour of Inland races after all it is a long distance club but looks like it's being turned into a sprint club.
