    Can People Change?

    So!! lets suppose what Savile did could be proved to be years ago and all the stuff he did for charity later on far outweighed the bad would that be OK then??? should his memorial be replaced?? Should we forget about his victims??

    Everything Come To Those Who Wait....

    CF. Anyone who has played sport any any level, gets to the point where " the youngsters need to be brought on and its you who has to fall on his sword.".

    The EGU's recent Amended Guidance on returning NQ scores

    Anybody know how this is going to work in practise?? We play around a dozen seniors opens a year, often starting early and getting away long before the end of the event so how will we get our cards then?? Will the officiating club send them on??? Has anyone looked into what this all will mean...

    anyone played Bishop Auckland?

    And whatever you do dont slice on the first tee shot the club house is there and has some big windows.. Yes the first 9 holes play long and when its wet it is a real slog.. We also have a reciprocal agreement with them (and Saltburn) because the 3 clubs all celebrated their centenary in 1994...

    caught no using a winter mat

    We have used them for about 9 years now and everyone agrees they save the fairways. Our course is solid clay and at this time of year is very very gloopy, we all carry sticks to clean the front wheels of our trolleys so fairway mats have been accepted by the membership as being a necessary evil...

    Should the number of foreign players be limited in the Premier League

    I stopped being a real football fan and stopped going to matches at Leeds when all the foreign players started coming in. I felt a real affinity for the team when they brought their young players through from the juniors.. there is a real skill in spotting talent and nurturing it, the league was...

    The Moorside

    Just what is the point of this programme at all?? we all know what happened its not a good thing so why dredge it up?? It just appears the BBC cant get any good writers with imagination any more...They find a good idea then run it into the ground, but Moorside is not a good idea.

    Standard of winter mats / tees

    I THINK!!! that once a mat is laid that becomes the teeing ground and the tee markers have no relevance in defining same.. I had this arguement on the course and was backed up by the handicap sec.. so it must be right, musnt it??

    Daily Mail Shocker

    OK Educate me, Terry Christian spent time on Matthew Wright this morning calling this article racist and divisive.. I have read it (but has he??) all I can see is facts being reported, If people have said what it reports I cannot see anything in it even close to what Christian was going on...
