We have spent the last months fighting it legally, the grounds they has used there is no possibility to contest it, we have also worked tirelessly to fight it politically through the council (like sticking needles in your eyes!), and with many councillors, the chairman of the council, the leader, and the chairman of the relevant committee, (all as much use as a chocolate fireguard).

Then the CEO of the Council, who has done nothing other than copy replies from the lowest council official we first came across, we have involved MP's, some who did not even reply, but some who have fought on our behalf, and been treated with the same contempt as us, being sent standard copied replies from previous mail!

We sent to the Sports Minister who replied eventually with an answer so stupid and irrelevant, just a disgrace, that you can probably hear me swearing now!

So yes, every channel has been fought, and exhausted, NCTC, probably one of the premier clubs in the UK, never not had GB team members, we have several currently, junior and senior, rifle and pistol, several British champions (including currently) many British records, it means nothing to the County Council, we are stuffed!

I don't wish to get into discussions, we just need a site.

As SJ says, the only thing we need now is an indoor building with ideally enough for ten metres plus, (14 meteres) and as wide as possible, but to survive we would take any thing as a stopgap.
