David Pack,
it has just occurred to me that last year you had a rant on here after a certain someone had a go at people for booking in online and not turning up on the day. I think where this person went wrong was they had a go at the people who actually turned up!!!
I think where your going wrong Is your doing the same. Your having a go at everyone who turned up and supported their club by paying their £8 on the day to race.
If a person can make time to race but can't help out, should they be made to feel like they've done something wrong when alot of people dont even turn up at all???
By persuing this line of argument what your actually saying to people is, Come and race as long as you can put the track out and put it away at the end of the meeting.
This will just further reduce our already dwindelling numbers.
I did not help out all weekend. I didn't put the track out. I didn't put it away or tidy up at all. But nobody, not one single person asked me to.
Had someone asked me I would of explained my reasons for not being able to help out this time. And if that was going to cause such a big problem then I would of happily not raced.
I think alot of people just assume that everything is taken care of and because nobody asks for help and support they don't give it. Doesn't make them bad people.
David, you have known for months now what tasks you were undertaking regarding this regional. Yet not once did I hear you ask anyone for help in advance.
So if your after a rant and a rave look in the mirror first and think before you start typing.
