[QUOTE="arcobob, post: 5523670, member: 4112"] We have one affiliated club in Norfolk and no more that three ploughing members of the SOP . I would guess that Cambs may have one or two more and Suffolk perhaps less. The numbers have fallen dramatically and there are no world style competitions in Norfolk. Last weekend`s match attracted 31 competitors and I would lay good money that not one of them will ever have any ambition to plough in the Nationals in future. The Norfolk Ploughing Society offered to put on a coach to the Nationals this year to try to kindle some interest. They had one taker. You obviously see a different picture your way but I can tell you that it is not as widespread as you might think. Waving a big stick and alienating non members will have the opposite effect. The SOP has a mammoth task to undo the wrongs of the past few years and only a major management shift will allow this to happen. [/QUOTE]
