I heard the savings is quite good and there was a failed attempt to get the Treasurer by saying his savings are false as he didn't put the clay subcommittee cost under that category. 20K for a sub committee is a long stretch. I did hear the cops where set up on the road right outside the hotel breathalising everyone ileaving. Haven't a clue about the charity stuff, Our Delegates said it was a fairly benign event everything was run of the mill. The Dublin and Kildare "divilment" was non existent as usual they couldn't get off the blocks. Does anyone know when the County by County meetings are going to happen with the National Chairman and the Executive. If its true thats a great idea, finally the unwashed get to talk to the head sheds.

There was a big round of applause at the laser shoot making money . Nobody thought it possible

Let the meeting happen let the Clubs put the questions to the National Executive.

Are these things/motions /proposals not discussed with the clubs for their approval before the AGM ? I think they are in most RGCs . Indeed the bulk of proposals in most counties I'm in contact with come exclusively from the clubs otherwise the tail is wagging the dog

I recon the open meetings with all the club's will allow that debate. Ring the National Chairman and organise the meeting. From what I hear he is not the bogeyman and actually is very approachable the money man will be with him. I chatted to him in Birr and be honest he was down to earth and answered any questions I put to him.

Am sure the chairman will be on to rgc's if he hasn't been already to organise all the meetings around the country

Looking at some of the resolutions before the AGM I think it is high time that some of them do. There is obviously a disconnect somewhere along the line. I am not saying he is everyones cup of tea but given the changes in the Association over the last 3 years I think the Association is in good shape. Where do the misgivings come from? If there are questions then bring them down and quiz them. Ye would have nothing to lose.

From what i have been told there are many Clubs trying to get these meet and greets in RGC's but they are being stopped by the Executives in the Counties. Or as a mate of mine said the letter that's actually sent is re worded and instead of come down and have a chat its worded as a threat and an ultimatum demanding the appearance of the National Executive to appear and answer questions to the County executive. Then when thats raised at the County meeting the answer is we have asked and the spin on them is that they refused.

Surely that kind of information shouldn't be winging its way into people's letter boxes by standard post. The Present chairman wasn't even in charge when most of this stuff happened so why isn't the chairman and executive of the day, which the sender of this mail was a member under the gun for this ? And who's paying for all these stamps . Have any of you ever sent a letter to someone and misspelled your own address

I'm not a legal person, but I don't think a third person should circulate documents for a specific case that's sub judacae. This seems to be a a desperate act of a desperate man that is loosing all credibility. He has lost all his dignity.
