Thanks for your input. So can you name the 11 guys for me please. You seem to know more than others.
If you have booked a hotel near Palmer Park, you will have booked a hotel near the venue we are talking to.
Well you have a week to do some truck pulling or I we could just change all the events and then you will spit your dummy.

luke00 said:Events change is annoying, but personally couldn't give a f**k, because I plan smashing them all whatever they are (obviously not the farmers LOL)

However, not having the very basics like:

Venue postcode HEA SAIS HASNT HE, on precious page i think
Time we need to arrive
Order of events WHY? No benifit now
Rules FIND OUT ON DAY
Officially confirmed list of competitors WHY, no benifit now from knowing

is very disorganised to say the least, 12 days out, for such a major competition. LOL

Lets save all the fire, aggression and pissing contests for on the day though and just answer the basics please.

Don't no if this is any help RG1 8DF tesco at kingsmeadow Napier rd reading, is same place as England's 105 last Sunday, and to be honest as a last minute venue it's not bad, plenty of space, easy parking and a 2 minute walk to tesco 4 grub and relentless

Ben_Something said:I can understand the need to change venues, especially if there are cost implications with the original one, lets be honest, it doesn't really matter where we compete. Agreed, some venues are better than others, but as long as they offer the basics it's not the end of the world.

However, I don't really see the need to change events with such short notice, there's nothing wrong with the original 5 events. Truck pull might be a cool event, and it does look good for the crowd, but with ~10 days notice that's no reason to start changing things.

It's clear that people have focused their training around the events advertised. Lets be honest with a last minute venue change and the lack of information and exposure, there isn't going to be huge crowds at the event. I personally think it's much more important to stick with the events the athletes have trained, than try to please a (potentially) small crowd or the venue.
