Tony do you have a world style class at the morville match, or is it just vintage and classic?At the end of the day match ploughing is a hobby and any hobby you take up you should be prepared to finance yourself and not expect others who choose the less expensive class of that hobby to subsidise you. If that is the case why are world style ploughmen not given appearance money as their equiptment is much more expensive than vintage.
As our Match is a charity match we will not pay appearance money to the horse classes but still have one or two wanting to plough as there are not many matches other than the largest ones that cater for them.
If we all would not enter unless we had appearance money then match fees would go up and you would be paying your own appearance money anyway.
If you cannot afford to finance your ploughing yourself pack up and take up a hobby you can afford.
