I AM fed up of reading letters from West Kirby residents about the lock on Greenbank Road.

The football teams that occupy those pitches have received recognition for the work they have done with young children in grass roots football.

Residents were not so concerned about leaving dog muck on the fields for all to stand in and yes I am a dog owner myself - a responsible one.

Maybe we should be supporting our young and not trying to take away their fun.

I would much rather see the fields used to support our children with their futures as there are plenty of lovely places in West Kirby and the surrounding areas for walks with or without dogs.
