showman Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 if we are to flourish clubs will need to join together,i m o. Have to agree with this. My club has 7 members in total, with maybe only 5 members sending. Another adjacent club has approx. 6 members. Now, when I say adjacent, these 2 clubs are only 3 or 4 miles apart by road and you can drive easily between each one in 10 minutes! One club certainly has no prize or pool money. For the past 2 years, they have come together and racemarked at the same premises....no problem! They came together this year and held a series of shows to help with transport costs, and raised a 4 figure sum. A brilliant effort, and obviously an example of how they can work successfully together. However, mention the thought of combining into a single stronger club, and things go south very quickly. People talk about historic sentiments associated with their club etc. etc. I suggested the 'easy' way around that, would be to disband both clubs and immediately reform under a new name. No chance !! I can't understand it. Are we to remain in this surviving and precarious state or be more pro-active before disaster occurs ? It's beyond me, or is it just me, seeing a doubtful future ?
