    Your ageist and sexist comment no doubt stems from your misconception of people who are members of golf clubs being the nineteenth hole boors of yesteryear.

    As for the rich part, I bet you don't have any problem with all those rich, lefty, metropolitan blowhards who pay £5k to stay in a tipi for a weekend each year at the Glastonbury festival.
    I'll try again, you seem to be missing the point.

    The whole country has been and is still being sold from under our feet.

    The fact a privileged few, who could afford £8K a year, have lost their privately owned golf club is of very little interest/consequence in comparison to other publicly owned assets already sold off.

          I think we should have a whip round for them.

          Or a whip round their backs.

              I do but that's a whole other story.

              I live near 3 golf courses and a training course.

              The only people I've ever seen on the golf courses are old men. Are they rich? Well considering the fees very likely. The training course is next to other sports courts and they make it cheap enough for anyone to learn to play. Unfortunately it seems people would rather play tennis and football then learn how to play golf.

                Bigot!


                Discriminating against those poor rich folk who couldn't come up with some way to save their golf course. I guess they need to learn from those poor council estate scrotes who campaign to stop their houses being knocked down....

                    I don't have the time these days to play (or to waste £150+ to play a round), but I still like trips to a driving range, where I can take my stress out on the balls.

                      I think that's being covered in another thread?
