fishfish 17 Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 I whole hearted support their endevours but bullshit ruins their credibility! according to news scources:" The pro-hunting Countryside Alliance estimates around 250,000 people turned out for some 300 hunts." so nearly a thousand people per hunt????? i think it very unlikely.maybe a hundred or so per hunt at best. remember the story of the kid that cried wolf? same thing ime afraid. please ,who ever deals with press releases in the CA use yer head!

Matt 160 Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 I've been to boxing day meets down west where there were several thousand people attending fish. They usually do some sort of headcount, so I expect the numbers are fairly accurate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scotty 0 Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 We had about 500 foot followers out yesterday and we are only a small local pack, so god knows what the likes of the berkley, beaufort and heythrops get. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ratman2 2 Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 South Wold Hunt gathers at Louth Cattle Market on Boxing Day and I recon there must have been more than five hundred suporters, maybe more. Excellent turn out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
