No idea why anyone would want to be a member of a club that didn't want them. Just move on.
My favorite part was the guy in the buggy giving it the big balls.
“I’m the immediate past captain”
We’ll done big man, you’ve put the fear of god in him there
Love how one of them tried the "you can't play because you haven't paid!" and when he said he was happy to pay they went to "you can't pay you're banned!" Same destination by a roundabout way.
I've just searched the course name on the forum and quite a few are familiar with it, I'm still hoping one of them pops up with some insider knowledge or backstory. ( @timd77 @Newnsy @DRW )
Interesting that despite the fact that we know none of the details, everyone here is siding with the members giving them a hard time???

I'm not sure they are. I've taken the consensus here to be that everybody comes out of it looking like knobs. Asking why they bother to keep trying to play a course where they're universally disliked is not the same as taking the club's side.Interesting that despite the fact that we know none of the details, everyone here is siding with the members giving them a hard time???
According to my search of post history on here, some posters have said it is actually quite a unique course with lots of elevation and fun to play. Also from my Googling, Jon turned professional and shot 57 there one time (potentially the course record?) so I'm sure he has a lot of affinity for it.This is hilarious.
There has to be more to it. Also, why would you just keep going up there if it was going to cause aggro? Is the golf course actually any good to keep going up and risking ruining a round of golf?!
Im pretty sure the guy in question is a good golfer. represented England at a few levels and his county. He holds the course record there and they gave him honorary membership for life. I believe he also worked there. He reported bullying, age discrimination etc and was going to take them to a tribunal, the insurance company paid out and they tried to ban him but they can't because its national trust land? I'm not sure on that part.
These parts I understood too, but there are definitely scenes missing between "honorary membership for life" and "bullying and age discrimination".Im pretty sure the guy in question is a good golfer. represented England at a few levels and his county.

Wasn’t that Pathetic Shark bloke who used to be on here was itI hate that so much about some golf clubs, I had “do you know who I am” at my old club once, pathetic old men acting like they own the place
Siding with no one based on a video where no one comes out of it with any credit, not the club, not the members or the 2 guys claiming to be wronged

I reckon he turned up for the monthly medal wearing golf joggers and they tore up his membership.Maybe he tried it on with the old dear behind the bar who unfortunately turned out to be the immediate past captains wife
