Further Update On New Lurcher Association

[MickyB 327]

The only thing that's bugging me is there is no mention of lurchers in any of the CAs campaign pages

Hopefully we'll soon see that change

Name me one thing that joining this new/revamped lurcher association will directly benefit myself...?

It's an association to better our chosen sport and way of life.

 

Why does it need to directly benefit you?

 

That's a bit of a selfish outlook isn't it?

An association to better my chosen sport,well lets say lamping how will it improve that for me.

If i am paying yearly subscriptions i wouldnt mind seeing something for my money,and i dont mean a mug or t shirt.

Why is it selfish to not see any benefit directly to myself,,why join if no benefit.

Millions pay an annual subscription to charities, sponsor wild animals, sponsor kids in Africa. Etc Etc. What benefit do they get themselves? None.

 

Well I suppose they get the benefit of knowing that they are helping a good cause.

 

You would be supporting THE association that stands up for what you do.

 

Isn't that worth something?

 

If something isn't done then by 2020 we won't be able to run a rabbit on permission with a lurcher.

 

First of all i never said "whats in it for me",i asked how "it would benefit me" at no point did i mean financially ,,i attended many of the Association Of Lurchers pre ban events and hare coursing meetings and

was an active hare courser.The ALC was a really good benefit to everyone involved in organised legal hare coursing and Alan Tyrer did an exellent job.

I know Alan attended parliament to fight our corner more times than anyone knows,it was a big disappointment to see coursing abolished.

Great answer Gaz "you would be supporting the association that stands up for what you do",,,,,,,,,,i will rejoin,however things need to be done differently and loudly,

I could not believe when i was told there was no room at this years CLA gamefair for the lurchers,yet room for a hot tub or a holiday abroad,whats going on,we are being trod on thats what.,we need to have a big loud voice and be heard.

That was sorted by Penny and Trenchfoot when the met with them, they have already agreed to rectify that.

just shows you if it had been left . shows CA priorities they have to be approached! Edited October 26, 2015 by scottish lurcher

[Allan P 1,150]

If more lurcher owners join the AWL and the CA then maybe we will be a higher priority Scottish lurcher.

The what's in for me wasn't aimed at you.....just to clear it up

[paulus 26]

can not the AWL negotiate a club discount for group membership of the CA and include that in there yearly subs

[scottish lurcher 185]

If more lurcher owners join the AWL and the CA then maybe we will be a higher priority Scottish lurcher.

but CA have to attract members, that some selling point join us pay us money and maybe if we get enough we might fight you corner .

[Joe1888 672]

I see no reason why both clubs can't run and be a success , two clubs in future maybe even working together at times , is better than none and a lot better than fighting each other..

[Joe1888 672]

I'll even pledge my snp membership money to one of them

[Allan P 1,150]

I'm sure they have been fighting SL but maybe not as much as they should have. I understand where your coming from but as far as I know the meeting with the CA went well and that's why the club has been resurrected. For me it's got to worth a punt.

[South hams hunter 8,921]

Paulus they say on the website that a syndicate could get half fees for the first yearand a discount after

[Leeview 791]

I'll even pledge my snp membership money to one of them

Great gesture as long as there's no strings attached and keep NS up your end
