Will, I disagree. Venue cancels on Scott, what can he do? Try to find an alternate venue in 2 weeks, is this possible. If not, people cant really complain, and any complaint should be aimed at the venue manager


a fair point, although I hope finding an alternative venue on the original date would be a priority over changing the date in that case.

this is just going to roll on until scott puts out a statement clearing it all up.

You can call it moaning all you like but we all know that is an excuse to deflect critiscim. When you f**k people around you are going to get criticised. That's a simple fact of life.

The fact is that people have LOST MONEY because of this, they have f**ked around their family and friends, f**ked around their work etc. If the venue has cancelled then there isnt a lot Scott can do about it but the decent thing would be to at least apologise and at least pretend that you care that a lot of people have been f**ked around by this.

If it really is only about the venue then surely there should be no objections to another venue being used?

Also, the people posting on the boards arent just 'armchair lifters' they are the competitors. Will, JC, Ben F, Tony etc.

These guys arent f**king armchair moaners!

Firstly I would like to apologize to anyone who has personaly lost money, Im sorry.
I am sorry that the rescheduling of the competition has caused this many problems!The main reason for this being Staffing of the event.
It has cost me alot of money to set this evet up, I had spearmint Rhinos there and all sorts of stuff set up, Prize money ect ect.
Due to the onslaught that has blown my way I am going to let Jason Talbot put on a no frills comp on the 28th! Hopefully this will help out people.

It is your loss though boys as I had one hell of a comp set up!!

I apologize again to anyone who has lost money.

I have TV for BSM and this comp will be going ahead! and there will be a day before weigh in. just to pre warn people!

Sorry for the inconvenience this has caused,

When I compete next year you can all take it out on me can't you. Or should I say try lol!!

Once again Sorry
I was attemting to move the sport forward in the UK, maybe it is not ready for that yet.

Best regards

Scott

What will the evnts for BSM be, any idea?

JTs comp is not essential then for BSM? Will the southern lads be at JTs?

I too would be happy to do whatever you needed on the day.

All I'd want in return is a hug.

And to add to what Will said, I think a lot of people will be pleased that you have come on and posted that Scott. I don't think anyone doubts that you are trying to do good things for the sport, this has just been an unfortunate situation for some.

So now we have lost one great comp on the 105 calender and all of us have lost money on hotels for nothing!! we have all qualified for britains, but i wanted to compete in englands 105kg against the best 105s in the country. fair play to jason for putting another comp on but i have my name down for a load of other comps already. The point for me was competing for Englands strongest man!!! i work my training around the most important comps and this was important to me as i wanted to try and beat paul wood this time!!!!!!!!!

If it's the same date, the same qualified athletes and the same events - why can't it be England's Strongest Man U105kg??
