Ok well i am not sure what the guy with the problem with at the start of all this has had with ulirc, and i would like to know because what was the point of coming on to a forums and talking about it?
As i have said in other post's i think it was the malaga one we get on ok with ulric he has been nothing but nice with us being a new team in div 1 he has come over to see if we are ok at every single event.
He must have one of the hardest jobs in the MS to be the face of it and take the brunt of god knows how many players and teams when things go wrong so we have no problems with him.
The event its self was ok wasn't great but i dont think it was a bad one.
But for a major tournament i would expect more bang for your buck, it was really just like a local 2 day event.
The field were ok but going back to what fish said some places in the field were really bad these are some from the div 1 field it was full of rocks.
and this is from the div 2 field which was about 5 steps to the left at the start gate.
Some of the comments about the food vendors were true it was a rip off, and for some one to try and justify it by saying" its not much different from a football game" well do you think that football players pay 3 quid for a manky burger???
I think we do need some line of communication with the ms so as players we know that they are taking it on board, i still have a problem with how they were so flippant about malaga with ending the statement with some thing like ""well if you can get the weather to change then do so" or some thing along them lines,
I am just about to write and email to the ms saying we cant attend turkey because we just cant afford it, we were counting on a loan but we cant get that ether now so we just cant get there for less than £700 quid per player, and other deals are there but not all of us can take a full 7 days off work, and no for them to offer a $5000 first prise for div 2 and $3000 for m5 i think you can tell they know they are not going to get the number's but wont offer any thing extra to div1 or spl or cpl cause they know they are locked in.
I think that mikey d and fish have made some valid and very good points only to be shot down with one liners.
As storngle has pointed out it is a business, but dont you think it is good practice to show some respect to your customers by making it a better business?
and the comment about the nppl going broke because of the place they held the events, the nppl didn't go broke it was the company behind it that went bust so the whole thing had to wrap up, if it was the nppl that went broke why are another company starting to run it again at the same venue?
