"MEMBERS' MATTERS
Three items had been validly put forward for discussion by members.
(a) G Neave proposed that when selecting an Olympiad team the Scottish champions of the current and previous year should automatically be offered a place in the team. After considerable discussion a vote on the motion resulted - for 1, against 24, abstentions 6."
The voting here was somewhat biased after Jacob Aagaard, the then International Director, indicated he would step down if the motion was carried. A new motion may result in at least a much closer vote.
Scots back down to Dane - where were the nationalist that day I wonder? :p OK. Maybe I'm in minority but i am getting used to that since the general election
Doesn't mean I am wrong though 
btw - what's your story Mr Bryson - why are you not playing?
