tiger Posted February 24, 2013 Report Posted February 24, 2013 It would be much the same as the current latebred sale John. If fanciers performances merit an invite for donation to the SNFC latebred sale and they accept,the club and buyers at the latebred sale are relying on honesty.well honesty he did not have and ill leave it at that

W.D. Posted February 24, 2013 Report Posted February 24, 2013 Aye me and yer dad have been through that a hundred times. He told me about how the likes of yer auld pal Jocky said he would never see the money used for anything in his lifetime.This turned out to be the case. You know I'm friendly wi some of the Irish fanciers,they have around £30,000 in the bank and are absolutely cock a hoop.The INFC has even been donating prizemoney to some of the competitions etc. The difference is they seem to be in a positon where this £30000 will stay the same over the next few years.Where as our £103,000 goin on recent patterns will draw closer to £30,000 in the not so distant future Agree with what was said at the meeting as well.There is no need to go upping all costs for the members at this exact moment in time when there is £103,000 sitting there.Maybe its time they went to see someone about their financial situation as it is at present? I know the BBC have money invested somewhere which earns them a bit, they didn't do so well last year either as nearly all their races made a loss, but they are putting on more races this year?!!!The one thing I like is that they use Steve Appleby who seems to do an good job on his forcast advice to them, have the SNFC thought about using his services?

Delboy Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 The most of our SNFC fee goes to the secretary. He gets £17 of everyones £25 subscriptions and I dont think there is any other secretary in Europe gets as much . Its about time the position was made part time??
