There were a lot of negative rumors being passed down
ie .Fund being depleted, gross misconduct, numerous other court cases to name but a few. Thankfully these were all shown to be untrue.
It looks like there is a much bigger problem a lot closer to home.
True that faces change ,sometimes good,sometimes bad. My impression is that this is one of the good times.
It is certainly time for a few faces to change here in cork .

that ****e again....thought you lads were rock solid in the PRC.......
Im dead curious in the post above can you shed any light on a Countryside Alliance Club getting 4th in the NARGC Club of the year...has to be a scurrilous rumour.

You know what "thought" did
As for a countryside alliance club getting 4th ,I can't answer that but in rathcormac there seems to be more gun clubs than pubs!!(3 the last time I heard).
There does seem to be a lot of countryside alliance clubs in that area though.

what are you being led to believe, NARGC will always be there its got a membership of near 30,000 the faces will change thats all.

These are the gun clubs that have left cork fed and joined countryside alliance in the last five years; Watergrasshill, Kildian, Conna, Rathcormac, Castlelyons, Aghern, Curraglass, Fermoy, Clondulane, Mitchelstown, Coolagown, Kildorrery. This is only North Cork alone but don't tell any one it's all hush hush. So if you ask any of these clubs why they left cork fed they all will give you the same answer.

Cork Federation are keeping that quite, the quarterly meetings must be getting thin on the ground. How many clubs have moved to IFA?

NARGC must be haemorrhaging numbers big time.

Thats in the last five years though. There are new people leading the NARGC now and they want to steady the ship and steer a new course. The chairman is a good guy and is available to every member. His number and email address are readily available. His foreword in the annual magazine ''Gameshot'' is there for all to see and he wants to engage with members.
There are still battles to be fought but there is good people there now so there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Here is what I see:
There is a huge desire within the NARGC for change
There is a huge desire among this Executive and the Chairman to bring about change.
There is a new openness and positivity there at the moment.

Here is what I was told:
Meeting in Cork was very open and a lot of new info came out about what had gone on in the last year.
The lads that came down to Cork made it clear: if you don't know something pick up the phone and ask; if they can tell you they will.
The negative rumour mill has to end.
This year every RGC is represented among the committees...I was told that is for the first time ever.
We are in very good hands..

Deeks, Did you get to go to the meeting?? would have been an opportunity for you to ask a lot of the questions you had here.

Heard a good one from Cork the other night.. After the meeting some Cork lads approached the Treasurer and were sussing him out.

Cork lads: So whats your background then, what are you into, bouyyy?

Treasurer: Pheasant mostly, some duck. Using a setter and a side by side...

Cork lads: No, we meant like financial like...

Treasurer: Oh, Chartered Accountant.


Glad to see he has his priorities right!!:D:D

No doubt the NARGC are doing there best, but when they're dealing with the likes of the Cork Federation it's going to be hard for them to retake any ground that's been lost or even stem the tide of Clubs leaving.

Deeksofdoom, surely you can change them. Push them out into oblivion.

The feedback in Cork towards the Executive members that went down there was unbelievable.

I understand that the Executive are willing to travel to any other counties that have queries as well.

Wirehairmax is bang on about gameshot...contact details are there and he is very approachable.

Is Gameshot being posted to individuals and/or emailed?

berettaman

Gameshot is being posted out to all members of NARGC individually...

its Good enough but why not make it download able from website. Save money on the postage or send 20 or so to the club secretaries.

Rimfire Shooter

By email would be OK but some are not tech savvy. Posting to club secretaries in my experience and we'll never get it.

Only getting back to this today, I spent the back end of last week in Cork and from what I hear there was a serious meeting and the lads are upset. A lot of people seem to think that the NARGC fund membership was through the roof.

People forget that its €50 for the fund and anything else is being put on top by the RGC and Clubs. A lot of lads are not happy and what is coming out here is very much mirrored on the ground. They couldn't believe that Cavan RGC only look for €75 affiliation per club.

deeksofdoom

From what I am reading on this thread by the spin doctors sent to post here from the Cork Federation is that the meeting was very positive and the sun shines out of the NARGC.

However is there anyone who was at the meeting that can tell what really went down and whether the affiliation fees was brought up?

I was at the meeting and the €50 to the fund was never questioned nor was the affiliation fee (€20) to the cork federation.. what was questioned was the utter load of bulls#%t that we has been spun to us by "a few " of the executive.

I hope your not referring to me as one of the spin doctors sent to post from the federation. I can assure you I'm not.when I have problems with the federation I make it known in the appropriate place (federation quarterly meetings) . Why don't you go to the next one and let your problems/concerns be known. There may be other clubs of the same feeling.
