It was good to see someone else shares my concerns about Kinloch Green in the Courier Letters last Friday.

I also note from reading the Campbeltown Community Council minutes (or should that be seconds? :wink:

) that no mention of the Aqualibrium or the green was mentioned.

Recently been told that Kinloch Green will not be ready to play on until next spring. Why?

Anyone?

Not really boggy ground rather reclaimed land.

Don't hold your breath for an answer, the letter-writer hasn't received a response so far :roll:

I think the future of Kinloch Green lies more with holding Kite festivals, Music festivals.... etc.
The new swimming pool is taking shape and maybe a football pitch is now out of place in the centre of town.

Meadows is good, but maybe a larger pitch could be made in the area beside the hospital (not sure what it is called, the helicopter lands there) I am not aware if this is still used by any schools apart from sports day or who owns this land.

Money could be diverted from restoring the pitch at Kinloch Green to make a level pitch on this area.

Anyone else have some thoughts on this :?:

I don't think anything is fit for Kinloch Green let alone football. The following photo was taken last week at the Kite Festival and shows the standard of land re-instatement that the Council are willing to accept.

No chance for the next three years either Davie, I believe that the Cooncil will leave it fallow, after this year's tatties have grown, so that they can collect the corncrake grant :lol:
