    You may think me slightly mad but I don't have a big problem with the attitude of the coach. He would be stupid to bite the hand that feeds and it may be a way as Rutty suggests to slowly claw back some of what we have lost.

    Where I do have a problem is the rationality of the law itself and how it is being "rationed" out. If it is ok for some to hold .22 pistol, albeit under presumably draconian rules, then why not more??

    Why is it limited to the squad shooters only?? How do we get a new squad in the future if we can't use the guns??

    Why is it ok now and not the day after the Olympics 2012 when the squad will be thinking of the next major competition??

    My problem is that the answers form the government don't stand up to logical scrutiny.

    Please tell me of any responses you get
