Wow - seem to have sparked a bit of a backlash.

I thought that the call was for positive ideas, not for "let's put up an
idea and knock it down".

I agree that there are flaws in the idea that I put forward, not least in
the fact that it tries to encompass 2 things - Great GB Ultimate and great
British Ultimate.  I think that whoever is in charge of this is probably
intelligent enough to work those flaws out - so far I have seen 2 ideas: -
Mine (which probably sucks) and the "send the best club" (which definitely
sucks).

There have to be other ways of doing this...  What I suggested was analogous
to the Australian Cricket scene, the Football scene in lots of countries,
and the UK Hockey scene.  We can't just consider GB Squad on its own, we
have to continually build the groundwork too, and a lot of that comes from
how the top level of Ultimate behaves.
