They have always been strict with armbands,but as some groups have 'paper' members and were getting armbands from their club,but not wearing uniform.Now these members can get tickets at a discount.John

Must admit Les,I have never been asked to show my wristband inside the show ground.We have done guard duty at the side gate and been the ones asking,the only exception to this is the ECW,because of their great numbers do not get wristbands but have to show their membership cards instead,unless the new owner has changed the rules.

Giving it a wide berth this year.

Have had mixed feelings about the show in recent years, it definately hasn't been as good as previous years. I'm taking a year out to see what changes the new management implement, and for the better hopefully.

seems they have upset some other periods to this year
the new bosses have moved a well established group in favour of a ww2 group

dont care what happens the established groups should be talked to first instead of just moving em ..the old group now has no room or areas to display thier cannons

so they have decided to go to another show elsewhere
im sure that is not a good way to keep the groups
