The whole aura of discontent is pretty much an internet only thing that has been blown up out of all proportion. Yes there are a few tweaks needed and yes there are some personality issues but in the big scheme of DD they are minor.
The forum just exaggerates the whole issue.

It certainly seems that way. Not disregarding that some folks certainly have issues they want addressing it seems like with a few basic changes things could be resolved and the racing be the focus of attention again.

I'm not sure how accurate this poll can be considered given that anyone registered as a user on the message board could vote for any option without having been a rider or wanting to enter.

Tony

as per my opening post, it was more for my personal views (sorry if that was selfish) and I hoped that the random user would not post as it would be of no benefit.

It's def not accurate but it may well be indicative and from Couchies comments it does sound like a similar view to the Cadwell meeting.

No I didn't think it was selfish, I actually think it was quite interesting. Sorry I didn't mean my post above to come across that way. I think your hopes were a bit naive though (you know I wubs ya xx )

Fair comment about indicative, I wasn't at that meeting and I've heard conflicting reports and what was said, by whom and what was agreed. Strangely enough it seems to split along the same lines as I assume it would have prior to the meeting and as it appears here. This is the problem of not having the meeting minuted or suchlike - oh well.

Did I mention that I'm off to the West Indie's next year for the Cricket World Cup

Too late! That money was spent ages ago, this has been in the planning since the end of last year!

We had to book the 46 foot catamaran
Book our flights, including internal flights
A few nights accomodation
Get in the raffle for world cup tickets to see Australia's games
Dream a lot
Book and do sailing courses! (although I haven't done any of these, I'm in charge of beer)
Organise a divemaster

I can't wait!
