Calm down, Calm down.
I read the article and thought " I don't remember writing this."
I didn't but then I got to thinking who did?
Wes Stanton owns Blaze Publications and used to work for the CPSA was it him using it as an editorial? Who knows and does it really matter?
Now let us try and get things into a little bit of perspective.
I know I moan, my wife tells me every day, and then says, calm down, let it go, you are far too passionate about your sport, others are not bothered so why are you?
The CPSA used to have far more input and governance from regions, but HQ & the Board put a stop to that, and over the years since that happened I have seen it spiral out of control, finances up and organisational ability down.
Sadly I sincerely do believe we need a good clear out of the Board and start with a clean slate. We have a home HQ which we didn't used to have, we have some really good staff working at HQ doing a very good job, but it does appear from some of the major financial, legal and disciplinary cock ups that we have had to ride through over the last few years, the association is not being managed.
Until we sort out our association ( the CPSA ) we have not a hope in hell of furthering our sport by debate with the other players. We need to lead by example, not be brow beaten into compliance by trumped up Quangos.
For those of you who are sick and tired of hearing me moaning and deride everything that Nicola Heron and a few others have to say, I say this, fine you are entitled to your views and opinions, so let's hear them, and you try and improve our sport, rather than sitting on the fence and saying I can't be bothered, I just want to go shooting.
If you don't help to improve our sport we may not have one left to improve.
