Dear Paula,

COMPLAINT

As you know this football club has prebooked a number of pitches at Lloyd Park.

Last Saturday my club, our opponents and match official turned up to play a game of football at 1:30p.m.

The whole facility was locked and there was no indication why we could not gain access. We were not the only team that turned up to play!

Can you please advise me as soon as possible what went wrong and why?

I would also like to know if you can guarantee access this weekend.

Can you also assure me that there will be hot water available this Saturday. As yet we have not had any hot showers since we started using the facility from 18 September. (I presume that you will make the appropriate adjustment to our season’s invoice to reflect the lack of washing facility)

As you can guess I am ‘spitting feathers’ over last Saturday’s debacle and some reassurance as to the Council’s ability to provide a reasonable level of service would be much appreciated. I hope that I’m not asking for too much.

Yours sincerely,

Eddie O’Brien.
