Regarding the debate about whether Plough Lane should have a football stadium for AFC Wimbledon or a greyhound stadium, I would personally welcome any proposal which gets rid of the stock car racing.
I don’t even live next to the site, but yet my Sunday evenings – the only time I get to read and think during the week – are stained by the incessant hum of car engines.
All it takes is a decent gust of wind to carry this noise from Plough Lane to make my neighbourhood sound like it’s about to be landed on by a giant wasp.
I can even hear it with the windows closed.
It wouldn’t be so bad were it not for the fact that only middle aged Jeremy Clarkson wannabe nerds take an interest in this dangerous, macho and pointless excuse for a sport.
If people want to drive around smashed up cars they should get with the times and invest in a games console like all good 21st century geeks and purchase the latest Grand Theft Auto game.
I look forward to a day when I’ll instead hear cheers from Plough Lane on Saturday afternoons by AFC Wimbledon supporters!
