SIR: I am disgusted by the total contempt for public opinion shown by Bolton's Council regarding the closure of Bolton Sports Centre.
Time and time again they were told that the closure should not go ahead, but no, these deskbound Mandarins feel duty bound to run Bolton their way regardless of the electorate's feelings.
In the topsy turvy world of Bolton Town Hall it is deemed right to destroy a popular, and historic facility.
Closing Bolton Sports Centre will have a disastrous effect on the town for years to come. The whole situation was a fiasco from start to finish.
If ignorance is bliss then Bolton Town Hall is the happiest place in Britain.
Mr J Drake, Queen Street, Farnworth.
