When club members are track building sometimes a marshal point just gets stuck in the ground at a logical point where someone thought a marshal may be needed. I'm sure a risk assessment and sign-off hasn't occurred as to whether it is actually "safe".
I'm not trying to raise a point on who's to blame here (I detest blame culture), but if a case went to court, where someone was hit at a "safe" marshal point. The person that defined that point a safe place would be called to account. I'm sure the BRCA insurance would fight it so they were not liable.

As I have put if you consider it unsafe, mention it or ask to be moved
