It must be fairly obvious by now that the club members have done a lot of work, that should not be down to them. They have, in most cases contiued to donate, have succeded in getting friends and family to join the club and donate, have succeded in getting the project back in the limelight, this thread must also prove something as does the UKAR one.
Now if all this does not prove that the supporters of this project will, despite the total lack of help, info or direction from TVOC, do whatever it takes to show that we and 558 should be worthy of financial support. So again here is the challenge; If there is someone out there who has the money, the experience, the business acumen and the bottle to take this project on and manage it to a succesfull conclusion, then please consider doing it sooner rather than later.
Now if this still shows us up as "amateurish" and "ridiculous" then so be it, it will not stop us going untill even we have to admit it is a lost cause, and make no mistake we are not there yet, despite the best efforts by TVOC.
