"It is shameful, incompetent and a shambles.
"Lots of children and their families will be deprived of their sport and exercise over the weekend not only in Wootton Bassett where I have been campaigning but in Chippenham and Corsham too.
"It is a disgrace. Surely they could have thought of this and headed it off at some point in the last three months.
"Somebody here has made a terrible miscalculation."
