    Tom also had a stormer at Shuttlingsloe last year as I have pointed out - so maybe the Coiners course has nothing to do with it. Perhaps it is because he is a first year U18 so taking on some older lads.
    His race at AW seems to be reconfirmed at Coiners.

    Yes Tom did say that but you will notice he is being constructive he doesn't sound like he has got a chip on his shoulder. He put his idea across in the correct manner. So your sarcastic answers are not appropriate and tom one of your peers suggested a lack of maturity in your argument and answers and if i were you i would take heed of his request to look at how you have conducted yourself in this discussion.
    They called me mad and i called them mad and damn them they outvoted me !!!.

    Yep you said that!
    Ouch! Only kidding Tom

    Re: Coniston gullies

    Twas 18 months ago mate times change and no slating of specific races, organisers or naming of athletes to insult as i have seen you and scott do on many threads. And a proper example not a proper race.....and not saying all junior races should be ran in this way for if anyone knows me well my 2 favourite fell races before i posted this were Coiners and Eddies Revenge both failry runnable on decent tracks.

    Organise more races this way...not all
    And yeah fair enough lets think that year at the races..........it was Lecky's first year, some routes were suspect but now they have been removed or put right.
    Cmon Will youre a grammar school lad with intelligence like yours maybe you could at least find at quote attributed to me in the last 3 months and that refer to the current championshiop races
