Alan, I do think it is the best use of funds to pay travel costs not training.
You were the only player who played in Olympiad + European.
The other 4 players don't play European since have to pay costs, they might not have played Olympiad if had to pay flights. The Olympiad team would be the European team.
The ID is not responsible for raising funds, he has to work with what he has.
Our final position is not acceptable but the average age of our team is 46 , the under-30s are not as strong and would have been even worse.
I am not in a position to offer a much different result in 2016.
If anyone else wishes to stand as ID then they can try and do better.
For you, I would not wait for 2016 and pay for some training now.
