Mrs DAVIES Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Do you offer a cheaper price if the subs are paid on time? Most clubs do now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyS Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 No, Ivor charges a premium for those who pay late :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean Barker Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Actually at £10 we must be one of the least costly of all clubs to be a member of. Hard to get good value for money these days but that certainly qualifies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to get good value for money these days but that certainly qualifies. I totally agree Sean, I wonder how much Mrs Davies pays for the membership of the several other clubs she is a member off. Perhaps she would tell us which clubs charge £10 or less per annum. The Saracens is an excellent club and value for money at twice the price, I'm sure we all agree.

Sean Barker Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 I must confess when reading this thread for the first time I read Kay's first post as a positive suggestion, perhaps even tongue in cheek and then the following comments as somewhat friendly banter in our own irreverent style but re-reading it I would be concerned that to outsiders it could come across as bullying. I guess that's the downside of message boards, without intonation posts can be misinterpreted. Meanwhile back on topic, what can Ivor do to get the tardy payments in? Perhaps a select band of heavies who can pay them a visit and intimidate them? My vote would go to Mick McClure and Kenty, I wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancashire Lad Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 I never thought I'd hear a Lancashire lad say that. Can't be a proper Northerner. I've been corrupted living in the Midlands and South for so long. I need to go back *Up North" to harden up and be fully appraised and reminded of the true value of money. It's living in Barnt Green that's taken it's toll !! Would you believe, I even gave Ivor £20 and he never even noticed and I never even asked for the change That brings Ivor into the thread.

TonyS Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Bullying, Sean? Be careful of I'll send the heavies round to see YOU! I'm sure you'll be keen to hear that there's also some offline banter being exchanged about the relative merits and otherwise of Lancs and Yorks. Who said the Wars were over? Anyway, Barry is going into voluntary exile soon :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyS Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Anyway, back to Ivor's problem. Name & shame, I say. (I think I've paid?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovi Posted March 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 She wants a WHAT? A REDUCTION?? We all know what happened to Oliver Twist. At 19.23 p per week we must be the Cheapest club anywhere Seriously though Kay if I had realised "times was ard" We could have had a whip-round. £20 off Barry ,it isn't second hand or vintage you know. We might have to collect subs on club runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might have to collect subs on club runs. I was relying on Ivor having a senior moment. If he had given me £10 change I would have had a 100% discount. No flies on Lancashire Lads, devious, cunning, fit to travel. Just a wind up, It was only £10, witnessed by our club Doctor, Dave, at the Lickey café stop about a month ago. Any discount for me for early payment? if so you can give me a credit note against next years subs!! Tony, do you now accept that I am, a man from the North.

TonyS Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 It takes one to know one Barry, even if I'm from only just north of the A5. But surely, as a gentleman, when you gave Ivor £20 you were gallantly paying Kay's subs too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancashire Lad Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 What is all this about coming from up north My wife comes from North of Corporation St. That is what North is Corporation St is not North, Polly doesn't come from there, I know it well, for reasons I'm not divulging, the lights are a different colour, but It's at least 3miles South of the junction between Peshwari Rd and Vindaloo Lane. Anyway this thread has lost direction, lets get back to the beginning. Ivor eluded to a serious matter in his response. Several members have not paid their subs and clearly one can't and that we should have a whip round. . A suggestion. . If those who havn't paid yet, pay an extra 20P, Ivor can give a big discount to the member who is experiencing financial problems and we can be seen as being, charitable to our own. In fact, Tony I will relent and only ask Ivor for £9.80 change. I will go further, if the person in question sells the Pinarello, there would be enough money to pay the next 10years subs. I would also let her borrow an old bike, it's not electric, but will fold and when her legs give way, or breathing is heavy, it would easily fit in the boot of a Taxi, to get her home. How do you feel about that guy's?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancashire Lad Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Tony You are too clever for me, It's the way we spell Up North, I do miss spell check on this site and it doesn't underline the wrong word either,but I have to say that i was looking forward to reading. a more appropriate and witty response from you, of all people. I really must get back on the road instead of partaking in this silly verbal dialogue. I am spending too much time with the wife! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony I don't know an international woman, is it a woman with more than one passport? Enough, Lets stick to club matters, subscriptions. Your views on my suggestion, please, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyS Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 You don't know any international women but you claim to have visited the notorious Corporation Street near Vindaloo Lane? As for your suggestion, it's above my pay grade, you'll have to submit it to the Committee.But since most cyclists are almost as frugal as Lancastrians I doubt you'll get anywhere. My preference is still 'name and shame', followed up by slitting the tyres of persistent defaulters. Nothing personal you understand, "just business".
