THE residents of Sunny Bower, Little Harwood, are up in arms about a proposal to develop land in this residential area as five-a-side football pitches.
I helped at the local elections on May 6, and I know that one of the candidates for this area was committed to helping the residents to try to abolish this proposal if elected and made this point known to them while out canvassing.
The turn-out by the Sunny Bower voters was pathetic to say the least, so, unfortunately, they will reap what they have sowed.
