There is a small minority that have decided to try and slag the track off and run it down on flappers dream. These people have either already decided not to run at the track or never even visited the track!!! I have said this before but want to make it clear, if you have a problem or complaint regarding the track please contact me or my father. If you really don't like the track please just don't come there we could do without people like this trying to ruin for others.
I don't think it's unreasonable to say anyone abusing the track or my family will not be welcome at the track. I believe any business wod take the same action.
Could I say thanks to the people who spoke out on the forum to support the track and saw through what these people are trying to do.

Try not to take it to heart...there are some people in this world who are miserable about everything!! Hopefully they will get bored of being the voice of doom and gloom...and those who know you will not listen to them anyway! I always thought I would be against racing after hearing all the horror stories and from the experience that my first greyhound went through BUT I decided to make an informed decision and actually went to see what it was all about. I can see how much the dogs LOVE racing. The greyhound I have now came straight from the track at Sittingbourne...some of us out there will not listen to such tosh and will make our own minds up!

Being in business has its ups and down. I for one have been accused of drug rape and gun running in the past !
Thankfully those who matter can see through the rubbish, laugh it off, but it does hurt to know these things are being said if they are untrue.. Usually I experienced rubbish behind my back as a matter of jealously, when in fact there was nothing to be jealous about.
One time a friend of mine was in a meeting where a competitor was slagging me off not to deal with them, where this person doing the stirring had no knowledge of our association. This person was repeatedly asked if he was sure he had the right person and described me perfectly !!
Anyway, from a firm supporter of greyhound racing it would be reassuring to read from management on this official site a detailed response to the allegations being made, to put all the true supporters and runners at the track like me (when my dog is not injured ! But that's another story) in a well informed and reassuring position . Believe this would mean a lot.

You will notice that the posts regarding race fixing and abuse towards the track and management have now been removed from flappers dream. I emailed thier complaints department who can't allow posts that slander or harrass a person or company as they could also be held responsible for any damages caused.
The track denies any of the allegations made. And will continue to do it's best to ensure fair and well graded races.
