I stopped running the 4 teams a few weeks ago to concentrate on my snooker website and trying to push more competitions as the snooker league secretary.
Once I've done that I'll hopefully have regained some energy and again help out a lot more in the local club. I still do now but don't advertise it or the whiners will jump on me when I walk through the door ad I just want to pick a cue up if they'll let me for a while!
Just get the moaners involved in something.
I've organised the odd one day competition and occasionally asked a negative guy to run it as supposedly I'm away. They get to do the handicaps and everything else, surprising how they sometimes change their view when they get moaned at for dodgy handicaps when it's their greatest beef.
Occasionally one of them realises and actually helps out in the future.
