Angling Trust restructuring through lack of membership.
Will it affect the disabled section?? What about the World Championship? Your thoughts please.

Hi Jimmyb, (a) There is no disabled section, so no affect there.
(b) Nothing has been released about the disabled internationals where in contrast all the other non disabled competitions gave team, dates, venue info et,c but with 3 days to the competition nothing?.
Think have more to worry about at the moment than what issues we have with angling, maybe later. |

   Angling Trust chief executive Mark Lloyd is confident that a new structure will work and said: “Anglers need to imagine what the future might look like without a national body to represent their needs. I suggest the cheif exec ask's Disabled Anglers, They Don't have to imagine, They can tell him the reallity.

| They have had more than enough chances from disabled anglers in my view, never again will they get a penny from me. I keep joining in the blind hope things will change, they never do MY money is staying in my pocket unless I see a big change in the future not joining on the off chance they do change |

What is the percentage of disabled anglers participating in the sport? THAT should be brought to Angling Trusts notice, because in one foul swoop, they have alienated the entire disabled fraternity!! |

If the A.T. wont disabled anglers to join them they need to make it more attractive to the anglers one match a year for £20 to join is not good enuf then you have to pay to fish it plus bait petrol food drinks pools so what do you get for your £20 the anglers pay for the match not the A.T. so wher does the money go and for what KENNY |
