SIR - It's great to see the council spending over a million pounds on the development at Cathedral Square, and £900K at Diglis playing fields. Even the £2,000 on Gheluvelt Park is welcome.

However, how about sparing a thought (and a few quid) for the drains at Brickfields Park?

For the last 4 years, the run off from the park, the football pitches, and the adjacent driveways, has been collecting in one place, the bowling green.

Every time it rains, the green gets flooded, and it doesn't take a drainage engineer to conclude that something's not quite right.

After ringing the council on many occasions in recent years, we keep being told we have to wait our turn. In fact, on one occasion recently we were informed by the council that the work had been completed! I can only think they found another Brickfields Park in Worcester.

Meanwhile, whenever we have a home match after it rains, we have to cancel as it looks more like a swimming pool than a bowling green.

We appear to be getting no sense out of the council, so I was just wondering if somebody, anybody, would have any idea how long we have to wait?
