Would anyone one from NOBS care to answer why they claim 9,000 members but had an income from all sources in 2007 of only £24,000.
How many people have hey placed with shoots ths season?
Why are their show stands not manned adequately?

Why are Nobs insisting that you pay in order to post on their forum, which they get for nothing?
Are they just money grabbing %(£%^$(s? |

Don know if they do get it for free - if they pay then they have been shortsighted and not realised the best deals are out there just look for them.
Removal of urls from signatures was the start now I hear a lot of the links to members sites in their links pages have been removed too and some of those people are not amused. |

Apparently their IT stuff cost them over £10k in 2007 - was it put out to tender? No - it went to a friend of a board member!!!
Ah well. |

I see people saying that as it is a VOLUNTARY organisation run by volunteers then members shouldnt expect too much.
It is in fact a limited company with a board of directors which noone seems to know who elects them, or to whom they are responsible- certainly members have no say in the matter.
To spend funds contributed by a membership without getting best value is reprehensible- and foolhardy.
They get FREE stands at shows and FREE passes for people to man it.
Sometime soon they will have to answer these awkward questions. |

I wonder if Mr Vincent Jones is aware of what a shabby, half-cocked load of crap his name is attached to?
Now THAT could be an interesting e-mail to send!
(has he got his SGC back yet?) |

So in fact has nothing to do with the company now, yet still they band his name round?
Wouldn't Lord Black - he of Hollinger International /Telegraph, be a more suitable President? He could point out all the best ways to skim off the company! |
