I don't know if you just want to back Gibby, or you're holding a personal vendetta against Matti. But his post was quite easy to understand with a little effort. And far from against the forum rules. That's just a BS argument.

Neither, it's a pet peeve of mine, I would have said this regardless of the poster. Thing is, it shouldn't take effort to read someones posts, they should put effort into making it legible.
I'm always curious to hear the piss and moaner's ideas. So, Matti, do you have the sure fire fix for the GP's? And what is your plan to enact this change?
and why get pissed about AC talking up his bread and butter? only a dumb fuck would do otherwise.
If you want to "grow the sport" make it cheaper for people to participate and open more areas to riding. If you don't do that, the sport is not going to grow.
Rather simple really.
I know with acceptance comes better salaries for riders, mechanics, and other industry people. Still, with all that's been done to grow the sport it seems to be dying on the local level. Until you bring the sport back on the local level to what it once was the pro game won't "grow".
As far as Cairoli, he's entitled to his opinion. I just hope it's his opinion and not one based on a check he got from YS.

"We need places like that to grow the sport, new big sponsors want facilities like that"
Cairoli is 100% correct with this statement, facilities like this will help attract big sponsors. More outside sponsors = more fans and more money for the industry. When I tell someone that I race motocross, the usual reply is "What?" Which I think is ridiculous. So in that aspect yes, I want the sport to "grow." I'm sorry that you old timers don't want things to change. People shouldn't have to ride MX to be fan of MX, and facilities such as MMP should help bring new fans into the sport.
If then I was told that the venue was changing this year what would I be inclined to do? Check it out to find something completely different,a man made track where is have to watch sat down in the stand,its not what GP Motocross is to me so I'd make my decision and stay home,watching it on tv (empty stands and all)
If I want to sit on my arse and watch racing I'll do it properly and go to a Speedway GP unless I lived in the US and go to watch SX if I was more interested but MX for me has to have that outdoor Old School feel if you want to call it that,and all that go with it,who cares about about the "nicer" facilities with no atmosphere,lack of fans etc? This is MX at the end of the day,don't make it out to be something it isn't
Sponsors will soon see things differently if it got to a stage where there putting money into the sport and there's no fucker there I suspect,it doesn't look good on tv either
"A field with sticks" well if I had the choice-gimme that anyday,I don't even mind the odd bit of cowshit
teutschenthal is not even one of the best imo, let alone the track they stamped on the floor at lausitzring

One of the great attractions of motocross is that it is perhaps the only motorsport where you can get really close to the action. Fans can lean over the fence and cheer their heroes on. They can see the height that the bikes jump and they can experience, at close quarters, the awesome speed at which the riders traverse the terrain. They can see the lines they take, the depth and severity of the bumps and the lean angles in the turns. They can hear the strain of the engines and the chatter of the rear wheel under braking and even perhaps get a little roosted with dirt. They can also literally feel the presence and the power of the bikes as they race headlong into the first turn.
That is what motocross is all about.
That does it for me, I don't know about anyone else?

yes i agree the tracks suck, but your argument is weak IMO.
