RE: Well said, Matty
I agree it's a good reply, but there is no getting away from the fact that a lot of people on the Island are indifferent to the TT without being hostile towards it. They do suffer quite a huge inconvenience for very little personal benefit. The majority having moved here to work in the finance and online gaming industry would be little effected by the losses to the Islands business revenue.The money doesn't all go into the governments coffers, just the taxation of the £50m, the people hardest hit would be hoteliers and catering if the TT were to dissappear

The opportunity here is to get these people involved in some way, not nessecarily marshalling, which is a job for enthiusiastic people, but more passively to encourage their support for the future. They then may wish to progress to more active roles.

I firmly believe that the TT and MGP are events that bring the Island community together and are more than just run for profit.
