Yes they do, and the word is that you're that road running club (in decline) with no decent fell races... and so the fun continues.Quote:

And arguably you have left Faisal Ismail (a cracking runner) in a rut and he hasnt really improved. SO even the road running/trail cant support its juniors
Paul please please be more original that FB or big lad or eaten a lot.Quote:

Don't understand the first bit - I assume its in Lancastrian where CV seem to have to go to get their members. You are entitled to your opinion about our races - do you not like them because they are all in different places. I assumed all CV members are agoraphobic because they only arrange events on one bit of moor. (Apart from the full trog when you come over to the light for a bit)Quote:

He has beaten you easy AS. He is a top V40 from CV. Also a very good race organiser.Quote:

I think you're a lovely bloke, with a great knowledge of fell running, and that you should be admired, and reveared as a great contributor to the greatest sport in the world. Without you, the world of fell running would be a lesser place.
I think the forum should extend the hand of gratitude to the almighty AntiSocial!
AnitSocial - My Hero.

The Southern Softies are looking forward to taking you on at Callow in a couple of weeks.Quote:

Sorry been away - you are quite right I counted the time in hours. When it comes to CV one doesn't need to try given their sense of inferiority.Quote:

Oh John TB don't get antisally going he had calmed down, you will only end up disagreeing as he disagrees with everybody about everything even if he agrees with you he will argue just blow smoke up his ar$eQuote:

Once Greenhead is sorted, with luck it will have a track as good as Halifax Harriers and possibly even a decent club house.Quote:

I think people need to chill a bit!!
But to join a real club, a club that's not insecure about the fact they might not win a race for a while, not scared that they won't flood a race with their colours, and most importantly, not scared to go to the pub for a pint (or two), hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
Ha!
i remember when keighley had two clubs, the hill runners with a cracking bunch of lads (and lasses) were mainly a bofra club joined up with the road runners. it didn't last long because most of the hill runners got disillusioned and formed wharfedale.Quote:

calder valley are a much older club and a proper fell running club. it was anti that brought it up.
ps the green, red and white hooped vest are grotesque
Don't doubt anti brought it up, seems like him. Don't really know much about the history of KCAC, am relatively a newcomer to the area (moved up here 3 1/2 yrs ago). Still consider myself an outsider if you like. But KCAC have been welcoming, I had never run on fells before, knew nothing of FRA / BOFRA etc, only found out that history this year reading Xmas present book! I've found all clubs and people to be friendly and if I knew who you were JtB would happily have a pint with you.Quote:

biara, i ve no doubt kcac are a great club to run for and i know many of their runners and have competed against them for lots of years. i was just pointing out to anti, who was in many ways poking fun at cvfr. i believe it was all tongue in cheek in getting some club rivalry going and thats why i asked him that. i wasn't taking the micheal, just having a bit of fun back.Quote:

There seemed to be lots of photos taken at the Tom Tittiman race. Have any surfaced anywhere?
My lad Adam was taking photos on Tom Tittiman. We'll try to get them uploaded and post a link. Dave Woodhead was taking photos as well apparently, so probably be on the Woodentops site.Quote:

Why do you know of one in the Calder or Wharfedale areas.Quote:

And your point is?Quote:

Thanks Bill (and Adam). I didn't spot Dave Woodhead, and he's not easy to miss. I must have been concentrating too much on my leaden quads and not twisting an ankle.Quote:
