Marshal shortage threatens rally

Final signing-on session this evening (Thurs)

There's been a 'critical' appeal for marshals ahead of this weekend's Pokerstars Rally.

A low turnout so far means fewer than half of the seven stages are appropriately manned, and at least 30 volunteers are needed tonight to ensure they go ahead.

Organisers are urging as many as possible to come along to a final signing-on session at the TT Grandstand Conference Centre between 5pm and 8pm.

No experience is necessary.

Chief Marshal Mark Ellison says it's a disappointing situation
