    I used to spend hours on that track as a kid – there used to be a few of us who’d gather over there and have some great fun. Sadly, in the mid 90′s it was taken over by teenagers (and some much older who should have known better) and they ruined one of the few places that kids could play safely in that area. It’s sad to hear this news now, what do people get out of behaving like this and why is it too much to ask to have some decency these days?

    typical of the working classes to destroy their own stuff, this is taxpayers money that clown brown thinks is best spent on the ghettos, we could have had tax breaks or something useful not a pile of mud for the hoodies to vandalise
