EDCLARKE said:This was discussed at the Farm tonight ,the people that new Ian were very suprised to hear he had been sacked and the concensus of opinion was that he was a very nice bloke who did a good job and that it seemed very strange that he has been sacked and yet no one seems to have been punished for the india visa cock ups! Apparently there is a gbpf agm in Grantham on the 17th April to vote in the new officers for the English powerlifting any gbpf members have a vote!

does anyone know how one would vote? I presume GBPF will be sending out ballot papers with nomanies names and job title on them? Pmsl.

You can agree or you can disagree, but the FACT is that all the lifters have not been reimbursed completely. FACT. Most of the lifters didnt go to India because of someones cock up. They suffered. FACT. I stand by my original comment. Feel free to disagree with any other FACTS on the WWW for all to see.

ps - not sure why you ranted about the AGM under my quote, but just to avoid any confusion I'm not a member of the GBPF, will never be, have no interest in any AGM and am not part of any PL 'set up'Wink

its ok mate Ive been told why I dont internationals. I shave my head and have a bigger upper body than lower (just love bench and not keen on sq and dl). Do you see what Im getting at. Even If I was invited to do internationals now I couldnt cos im broke! I wasnt broke last year and the year before when I asked if I could go and they sent no one Unhappy

At internationals I think they adopt an approach of either a good sized team or non at all. Each nation has to send a referee either catI or catII IPF as well as a representative to attend the meeting of congress before the contest. There are fines for not sending a ref of about 200euros. There could well have been political reasons why no team was sent.
