I don't think you can blame Bingo for the demise of WMC's but I would agree that the people that played did absolutely nothing to encourage younger people to be a part of their own little "world"

As you say eventually they all croaked and there was no one to carry on the great WMC's tradition.

That and they had more than their fair share of dodgy committee members.

Perhaps this should be a separate thread though.
