Honest feed back about CC...post it!

[Just Curious]

Not Impressed!

Without doubt the worst Event this Season!

Don't get me wrong...I understand and appreciate the effort that goes into putting these Events on but all the Hype prior to CC, IMO, pointed to something spectacular...ahem...I must have missed it then!

Biggest Trade Show in Europe...my ass...Paris and Amsterdam were far better with a lot more on offer and again, IMO, better laid out.
Atmosphere? What atmosphere? Until the actual Semis & Finals the Event was dead and during the semis & finals the majority of the spectators were 'Ballers!! After 'Dam, the Event was ridiculed for the lack of Atmosphere...Me....I think 'Dam had a much better feel to it than CC!
Marshalling...crap..well it was until they pulled them in at the end of the first day. Second day seen a marked improvement but still some seriously crap calls by a few idiots!
Food...****e and over-priced.
The walk from the Car-park to the Players area was a Joke! Somebody was having a right laugh at our expense!

The only good thing about CC, again IMO, was the Security Staff and the fact that they continued to use the Turf first used in Paris..great stuff.

The whole event was a bit of a damp squib really,,,,promised to be a really big bang but fell well short of the mark!

I really enjoyed the weekend from a spectators point of view it is always good to see the american teams play and the kellys games were nailbiting - a huge amount of respect to kellys.
pros and cons i pretty much agree with everyone else

someone had a bad time with the marshalling eh? there were bad calls yes but there was also mostly very good ones. believe me, my team got 141'd for something the other team did which put a severe dent in our winning chances...but other than that the other calls were pretty good.

id say my only negative comment was the bag of ****e that was the kerrang 'roadshow'....however not campaigns fault, nothing they can do about it.

says it all really

i know that first timers at a big event were probably impressed but apart from motorway access (poorly signed after that) this was marginally worse than Esher and certainly not the biggest best euro event to blow all our minds

Question what were you doing during the time of being ignored by the judge??, do you not think it would of been better to jsut switch your eyes off and carry on playing? seriously did anybody else actually ask a marshal if they could do something to there gun during a game, thats just crazy

'Err, i don't know.... can you?' dickhead.

It was in the rules given out at the Cap meeting that if you need to switch your Gun of at anytime during a game you had to ask a Marshal...now tell me whats Crazy about that??
