Saltings Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Maybe Saltings ,but we have tried with the news letters Facebook, wardens etc. and the message that club rules must be followed for the good of the club ,and to be honest FWA doesn't have many. We want to reach as many people who use our club ,guest and members to adhere to the club rules, So we all have a sport in the future. Jules I am 100% with you on stamping out bad behaviour and un-sportsman ship in all aspects of our sport and we do need to protect our clubs and leases and posts on here could do a lot of clubs harm, but when goose fever and greed takes over a chosen few forget their manners again I am with you on there is a price to pay for the disregard of club rules ( I do hope this does not turn to a witch hunt ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konnie Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 If the message is that important, I would have sent an email to each member in the club and kept it in house. 90%+ these days have email. Then you know they have been told. But in fairness to the post it is titled. 'Fenland Wildfowlers members' so I guess it hasn't done any harm. I would have just done it differently.No think this needs to be out there the club I'm in has the same principle I hope we are here to protect our leases for future people. The wash is a large area of interlinked clubs we do not what to attract the wrong members all others welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konnie Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 I don't really have an opinion on whether this post should be on here or not but obviously fenland wildfowlers have had to address something quite serious and I give credit to the club for backing up their wardens. I do have a question that jules could answer,do you have appointed wardens or are all full members accredited as wardens after a period of time as members. What I would like to see put in place was some sort of black list where people who have been banned from a club are named so that if they apply to join another club they can be checked out. If the person/guilty are already a member of several clubs, which many people are, the other clubs could then confer and make their own decisions. To my knowledge their is no such scheme in place but their should be. will ask good idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie10 Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 I am sorry , I let myself down , I did not realise that stripping off all my clothes and running around starkers in the mud shouting "come on" after shooting my first foreshore pinks was against the rules , it will not happen again , well not unless I shoot a pintail drake. I thought that was the normal procedure after shooting a first on the marsh, will need to check my club rules now...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penelope Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 One also has to consider that BASC permits are available to shoot FWA ground for BASC members, who will not be FWA members but may well use this site. I am one. Muncher, I wasn't referring to the actions the FWA took from a disciplinary point of view. That is completly none of my business. I was only referring to the fact that you had used an open forum, pigeon watch as a vehicle for getting a message to readers which was solely aimed at FWA members and really not relevant to anyone else.If all clubs used this forum to get their messages over to only their own members I'm sure many would be quite hacked off. But as I said no harm done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
