Hiya Justine, of course I am being negative. To put it bluntly the judges have the open competitors bye the b---s.. The only future I can see for them is if someone starts up an entirely new association run by people who have no vested interest in the results.. As far as I can see the only people who are able to do this would be ex UNI dancers... You have the expertise, you are under no duress, you cant be blackmailed into toeing the line and keeping stumb... And you are intelligent enough to understand all that's required.. I was hoping someone would get mad enough at me to try to prove me wrong...

Ok, maybe my approach is all wrong,if that's the case then please accept my apologies, but would "please could someone give this some thought and try help these people " get the job done???

Of the 3 couples in the under 21 at B/pool only one are all brit? the other two could have danced 'against' us if they chose to do so... :-( Bit like Man united, they are rich enough to buy the best players and in so doing win a lot of comps.. But is the team name correct? or should they be called Man amalgamated? or something similar? lol.. If locals played for them then I would support them.. But as things are.. nah.. its too commercial for my liking.. All they do is buy the trophies...
