Yeah southern teams do have it hard, what with having to travel to one
northern tour event a year and everything :)

Is it my maths or are we only talking about an increase of roughly £6 per
player for each event. Granted top teams may have to pay more but I'm sure
most top teams will have a big squad (I'm not saying small teams may have
low skill levels just that big squads tend to cope better), so the increase
still levels at about the same each. Is that so much to ask?? Travel costs
are still the same! Accommodation is still the same! It's just £6!! That's
about 3 pints, surely you can give those up!?!?!?

I've had to pay for my own ultimate play for a long time as a junior, it is
an expensive sport but that's mainly due to the travel, this increase is
very little per head and it keeps the 32 team events that we love.

Of course we could play A and B tours, but personally I'm gonna shell out
that little extra to keep the tour I love.
