Why do you deserve an apology? Serious question?

the apoligy because we spent x amount of money coming there all paid to get in,sure we we were drinking and stayed up until 2am,but caused no bother

and promptly got thrown out at 7.30am whilst still half drunk and basically told to drive up the road

and im sure you all now know it wasent us,but to cover up the owners club rep,its being kept quiet?

So were you read the camping rules when you came into croft?

When the fireworks were being set off what were you doing? Did you try to stop them or just sit back an encourage the ones who were setting them off?

The person who set the fireworks off was ejected from the venue on the Sunday morning. IF THEY MANAGED TO GET BACK IN IT WASN'T BECAUSE THEY WERE LET BACK IN ON THE GATE!!

Do you realise the consequences of setting off fireworks in a field full of tents? What would you have done had you sat back and witnessed someones tent go up with a family in it?? Would you have kept schtum and said nothing?

If you knew who the perpetrator was then why not say? At the end of the day people were kicked out because noone owned up. If your not man enough to tell the organisers who it was then you deserve to be kicked out.

How old are you? Do you think that this kind of behaviour is acceptable??

Dont think he said he knew who it was more so he knew who it wasn't.........i.e, himself and friends.
If i knew nothing other than it was nowt to do with myself i'd be expecting.....something.

Believe me he knows who it was, he was up when the person was setting off the fireworks. Scotts also had PM's off one of his mates telling him who it was so they know damn well who it was.

Every person who was up watching some lad set off the fireworks deserved to be kicked out in my opinion. They all knew the rules and every one of them chose to ignore it on the Saturday night at 2am!!

If they weren't man enough to stop it at the time and they weren't man enough to spill the beans when they were questioned about it then more fool them, they deserve what they got!!!

when we came over to see what was happening at 2.30 am on sunday morning we found fireworks on the ground, when we asked your group about it you told us we had just put them there and we were fuking liars !

you then proceeded to call a few of the club officials " fuking english monkeys "

(that alone was one reason why you were asked to leave.)

at that point i told the durham lads to go to bed and we would sort this in the morning.

when we came over we gave you every opportunity by giving you the option to own up or tell us who it was or you would all be asked to leave.

you chose not to tell us and we had no option other than to ask you to leave, if you knew who it was you should have made him own up

we put this show on for everyone to come and enjoy, sadly every year from year 1 there is always a group who cause trouble and cause us grief, maybe next year it will be hassle free !

as for an apology, you wont be getting one from myself for the simple fact that you knew fine well who was to blame and you still bad mouthed the other club officials

if you had showed some respect and behaved you would not be attention seeking on here now after all it is an rsoc event, go on the rsoc bb and see what response you get

The thing is someone must of known, maybe if the whole group was asked to leave then the culprit would have been pointed out and only they would of left.

To be fair col if you were there and didnt stop them then IMO you are just as much to blame

Everyone knows that croft are having massive problems with noise and letting of bangers at 2am isnt going to help is it

As always one or 2 spoil it for everyone else

Why didnt you say who it was if it wasnt you ?

I'll quite happily post the PM's if it helps to clear it up for you

You say it wasn't for you to say...... what an absolute load of bullshite, your as much to blame as the bloke who set the fireworks off, you'll get no sympathy on here same as you won't on the RSOC BB.

You still don't get it do you?? Do you realise the consequences of setting fireworks off in a field full of tents? What would have happened if you had been witness to a murder and not just a simple setting off of fireworks.... would the cat have caught your tongue then, or would you suddenly develop a conscience and tell the police that you knew who it was.

Wind your neck in mate, you've got away with it for now and by coming on here attention seeking your not making it look any better for yourself. I tell you what if it was me I wouldn't dare come on here spouting off like you.

Your showing your disregard for others mate and if I was any other show organiser eg national day, combe, ford fair.... I wouldn't be welcoming you with open arms......

You could of had a word and got them to admit it. Sounds like its them who should be appologising to the guys who were kicked out, not the D&D lads.

The way we understood the "well documented "rules, there was no cars running around after 10pm, this happened again, no starting up engines late on this also happened.
The fire work thing was well out of order, i believe the whole group should have been sent home , dammn sure if it was one of our group we would have been gone after our warning this year.

This will be the last time i camp at croft, but by no means the last time i will attend, the lack of sleep is no good the next day out on track,shattered by lunch.

Right I'm going to say this only once again and then maybe you will get the message.....

IF YOU KNEW WHO IT WAS YOU HAD AMPLE TIME TO TELL THE ORGANISERS WHO IT WAS!! YOU CHOSE NOT TO, YOU WERE UP AT 2am, YOU KNEW WHO IT WAS!!

You could have saved yourself from being kicked out by telling the truth and letting all involved know who it was. YOUR JUST AS GUILTY!!
