Rutland County Council use £250,000 public money to fund new adult football facility on land in Barleythorpe. College staff tell me get of private property

Rutland County Council use £250,000 public money to fund  new adult  football facility on land in Barleythorpe. College staff tell me get of private property?

Today I went to take the photograph below of the new adult football pitches funded with Rutland
Council tax payers money.

After taking the picture I was challenged by two college staff, what were you doing we have to protect the students most of them them fall within the age range 16 -18+

Both our councils seem to be very good at splashing out public money on projects that don't benefit 
the general public. 

Oakham Town Council  spent a quarter of their income in 2012 setting up friends with
a smart new private gym in Princess Avenue

Rutland County Council, the prison site another gym and sports facilities that will not be open
to the general public.

And Now Oakham Town Football Club 


A budget allocation 
of £250,000 was approved by the Council in 2012
