'TT marshals are threatening to quit over a radio message from the Clerk
of the Course during last night's practice session.

It's reported that Eddie Nelson sent a message to marshals telling them
to "stop whingeing about nothing" when they questioned why it took so
long to re-open the roads at the end of a session.'

On top of the Wednesday fun last year too.

The man's a ****ing idiot. The best thing that could happen would be for
the marshals to boycott the Saturday races unless he walks.

BA if it was practical.
But yes I agree.

Isn't K the Senior Marshal or summat?

He seems to have realised how badly he's ****ed up. He's issued an
apology.
