Really? Thats quite a controversial statement to make dont you think Ash?
The point I was making to Darren was that it is all well and good going onto the forum and complaining that the Nationals arent on your doorstep but what do you want us to do?
FYI Hereford, Swansea, Caldicot and Dudley applied for Nationals
before the deadline for applications...They were the only applicants so obviously they were going to get Nationals.
PDA were approached before the cut off date but didnt get back to us till after the cut off date and eventually had to pull out anyways.
Taplow applied for a Micro National thanks to being pointed in our direction by Carl Venter and Ardent Raceway applied after Mat North put in a tonne of hard work to get John adn his gang excited about us.
I remember speaking to yourself Ash, Danny and PMing Mike Spindley numerous times asking if Ockenden were going to apply for a National cos all 3 of you had mentioned to me that Ockenden were going to apply but that application never appeared.
I had a phone call from Danny last week (I think) talking about a new venue that they had found in Essex and how they were interested in a National but I told him then on the phone that Taplow and Ardent had been secured as the remaining venues.
It is well known that the Wycombe club does not meet our size requirements as has been discussed at length...
I use the term "Essex girls" in jest, as a joke...in the same way that I refer to Northerners as gravy drinkers and Southerners as shandy drinkers (and my local South-Westerners as sheep shagging farmers). Its all jest, and im happy that everyone else seems to get involved in the joke (and even joke back) with out thinking that everything is super dooper personal.
So what do you want me to do then Ash? How do you propose I rustle up applicants from the South Eastern region?
PS: If you are not attending Round 1 then can you arrange for someone to cover the role of PRO please.
