Thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately not enough marshalls view this site both on the Island or from over water to voice an opinion or give support. I am concerned that some people may over-react and make misaligned judgements over their true benefit and genuine contributions they can make to racing on the Isle of Man.
I have to admit that i shall be avaialble to marshall at the 2008 TT but not the MGP, for reasons that ironically, do now appear to confirm my beliefs that the MMSC needs to address how it is going to take itself forward in the years to come. I must stress that i am an avid supporter of the Manx Grand Prix, having been brought up as a young teenager when my father sponsored the 1976 Leightweight winner and then became more involved via mechanicing for the same and then sponsorship all but briefly.
I would like to stress that i have been part of a solid and conscientous team of marshalls at Greeba who take their roles very seriously when it matters e.g when on duty, and welcome anybody who wants to contribute and be part of the running of such a profile sport.
In short (not one of my strong points) please do not let changes that are definitely required; agree or disagree, put anyone off from continuing or taking the oppurtunity of being a marshall, the rewards far outway the responsibility.
