Yerman Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 At the week-end I played golf at Concord Park for the first time in ages. The improvements were very noticeable - there were actually flags on each green, there was not the usual haul of discarded bottles, cigarette packets and wrappers everywhere, and some of the greens were much improved. Sure, this will never be a world beating course but the fact that there is clear evidence of care and attention is a move in the right direction. For £11 a round it offers good value for money. Now if they could just get rid of the mountains of debris in the surrounding woodland then that would be a further step forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
