I dont want to see another row here, but if you were in the group that stood to be counted Im a monkey!

There was a very public posting in several places from all the teams involved, you were never even mentioned, and you were noticeably very very quiet over the whole issue..

I know for a fact that you were invited.. very specifically to join the group being one of the names that it was felt would carry some weight..
From what I know, you refused!

I dont think financials is a bad reason... but at least be honest about it..
