Let it clash with Batley, take the risk, lets see what it brings. What do others think.

Stu/Nick, how about starting booking in for that event now - perhaps take paypal deposits of £1 so you know those that do are serious.

Guys, ultimately Chris is right, noone can demand other clubs don't clash, there are more clubs than weekends. IF 2 meetings can be sustained (?) let them clash and let people choose. Remember, it's not really fair to ask people from the North East to have to come all the way to Manc if they want a race, and vice versa, let's keep local stuff where poss!!

Personally, I'll do the Supercup and cancel my March Bury entry, other people won't, but there's no way of separating them all so let's not moan at Batley arranging a clashing meeting, and the same if Bury do it! Try to avoid clashes but don't cancel events because of it!

I think arranging interclub is good, by all means do it as regionals if Northy etc want to, it may mean I can't as I'm in another region or maybe have heats for "outsiders" too, but seriously, it's in everyones interest to work together to make the hobby stronger yes?
