And it's nothing to do with the appalling marketing, choice of date, location or "product" is it?
The SoA website (which was itself sh!te) pre-Abingdon was full of superlatives, and whilst the weather was against them on day two, the results of day one spoke for themselves.
Jervis (whose website is also cr@p) clearly is not the man for the job, and that's the be all and end all. Pity no-one has had the balls to admit it.
Prior planning prevents etc.
