Mr Tanner,
                You state that all the governing body does is allocate the event. Well that they did.
They allocated it to a club with no track. Was there a feasibility report done to determine whether this track could be built?

You also state I have no idea what it takes or what work goes in. No I have never built a MX track. But like I said 2 months ago, unless you have the full resources of Abi Group this track was never going to be built.

I also feel for the club. They always give us a great track ( main track ) to ride on. At least they had a crack at it.

I stand behind what I said. The governing body should not of allocated the event without guaranteeing its survival.

Respectfully

Throwing the blame game in at this time helps nobody. Lets help get the event up and running again and stop blaming good people for others bad decisions.

Seriously there must only be a slim chance of these titles going ahead now, I've never seen a club hold a championship with so little time to prepare..

Maybe John but there's a lot of backroom work going on to try and save this thing. We need to hold on and give them our support. I've got my thoughts on the 'blame game' but now is not the right time to point fingers. Let's see what comes out over the weekend.
