[QUOTE="Dealer, post: 2020290, member: 327"] NB, the National is of course the exception at £20 plus £25 membership. Now then this is different, I believe that this entry should be free and will state why You should be rewarded for qualifying not penalised financially, often they are held one end of the country and transport accommodation and probably a day off work is involved to get there Friday ready for Saturday. The event attracts trade stands sponsorship & paying spectators. this should be enough to cover the entry fees of competitors and provide income to put the event on. lets say 150 ploughmen @ £20 each =£ 3000 if you cant cover that through sponsorship & Advertising its a poor set up. you have already paid to enter the qualifier (along with all the others that did not qualify) and will have paid membership fee. I am not a sop member yet!! and probably wont qualify in the nr future I know that some wont agree or will say that monies go towards world qualifiers expenses but I am led to believe that they have to fund a large part of attending those matches as well. Just my un-educated opinion. [/QUOTE]
