I doubt if that will result in a thriving fell running sport.

As I said earlier, if fell running cannot control and develop the sport while it is part of a larger organisation, then it is even less likely to be able to control the sport as an independent organisation.

Incidently you forgot to add BOFRA to your list of organisations responsible for fell running within the British Isle.
