The wife & I went for a walk down Sea Road on Friday evening while this event was on & a couple of guys standing under the railway bridge actually tried to charge us £3.00 each to get onto the dips. After telling them that we were certainly not paying to walk down our road & that they had no right to charge people to use a public right of way, we carried on. Another couple behind us did the same thing.

Hi Bob,
This is absolutely outrageous. What were these chaps like? Where they scallys trying it on or did they have official uniforms on?
Cheers

Also great pictures guys!
The guys collecting on the gates are volunteers from New Brighton Rugby Club. Once the program costs have been deducted, 1/2 the gate proceeds go to them, the other 1/2 goes to charity.
For the money you should have got a program - if they didnt have any then they were not official.
Unfortunatly the guys on the gates are probably unable to visually establish wether people walking are local residents or spectators......
