Have I been suspended???

Thanks.

It looks like it. Whether they can lawfully do this, however, depends on
their membership conditions and whether their disciplinary procedures allow
them to do this. My guess is that they probably do, because there is ample
caselaw on the wording and structure of such expulsion processes, but it's
impossible to say without looking at the conditions.

Beg pardon, sir, are you a barrister or a solicitor? Are you licensed
to dispense legal advice. Have a care, sirrah, you know not what deep
and treacherous waters you roil.

Even if they've got it
wrong, your chances of getting damages are limited,

Yeah, there's that.....but where there's sheep, there's fleece,
ainna? Go find your own ewe.

and you probably
wouldn't want to rejoin a club that had expelled you illegally.

Personally, I tend toward agreement with Mr. Marx on this point.

I'd find another angling club, if I were you.

Hell, I'd find another angling club, newsgroup, home, history,
language, culture and educational system if I were any of you.....or
try to with the limited means that would be at my disposal.
