The ones who actually make an effort to attend their divisional contests regardless of whether they are lifting or not in order to help other lifters or help on the platform. It's those people who realise it's not just someone elses job to run contests, coach new lifters or do administration. Nobody get paid for doing jobs for powerlifting or gets any benefits, people volunteer because they want to see it done properly. It is understood that many people have busy professional lives and family commitments and just want to lift. Posting on forums slagging everything/everyone off will not initiate any positive change, as Steve pointed out attend the AGM and vote for change or put yourself forward to help sport. x2, and few if any of them are 'cts'. That's why I choose to lift with them.

Do you really expect people to have to fork out for travel, possibly take tome off work, sort out child care simply to attend an AGM at the arse end of the country so soon after having to fork out at Christmas? Why not have a postal vote? Spend 50p or whatever it is out of the £40 annual membership on a stamp! X2. But Im just a moaning s**t for wanting to go to internationals and better myself. How dare I?

So now y'all know.

I know very little about the 'India' incedent but it sounds like the two arent comparable in terms of their seriousness. You can ceerrtainly see why people might think there are other issues in play.

Um, and why do you think it took a year? I actually despair that there's anyone who might think he hadn't been asked...

Or is it the same despair that some people seem to have that not everyone has been paid back in full from the incident? Or is that those will all be resolved, in a year?
