Football team without pitch to play on after travellers move in

  1. And it will be in no fit state to use after they move on either……playing in shite and broken glass is no fun…

  2. The eternal question why don’t travellers just fucking keep travelling. Why can nobody ever come up with a solution?

  3. There are always two types of people on this thread

    Those that think travelers are decent people like the rest of us and those that have interacted with them

    They are a group of people that the only major difference between them and everyone else is their refusal to interact positively with the rest of society

    I remember when they came round our bit they stole all the flowers from the graveyard to try and sell

  4. What exactly are ‘travellers’, that sounds like a euphemism or political correct-ism to me.

  5. I reckon you could put a caravan through with a couple of half volleyed Mitres if you catch it sweet enough

  6. There’s a free training ground in Inverness they could use

  7. It’s very hard to reasonably defend them when they think they have a right to destroy a bairns football pitch. They do themselves no favours and actually invite negative stereotypes.

  8. There are some travellers up outside Newtonmore that have never caused any bother and are part of the community, then there are travellers around Livingston that leave utter devastation when they leave. If the Travellers aren’t part of the community I think the place is going to be wrecked.

    Pictures once they leave would be good to show the truth of this particular group.

  9. Well with any luck they’ll soon be overthrown by the chickens again and leave.

    >It was about the same last year. They had a chicken coup and the waste was all dumped.

  10. Lock your sheds up, screw everything down. Install trip lights with notifications if they show up nearby.

    I’ll edit this seeing as being downvoted. – 🙃

    When they moved into a patch near me they refused to leave, shitty nappies everywhere, litter wAs everywhere, aggressive when asked to pick behind them, I’m not sure what they caravans were leaking at the time but it didn’t look great for the grass. Absolute wee wankers aged 14 and no older giving you dogs abuse. The gents had a prepared speech about racism.

    Anything that wasn’t screwed down was lifted. BBQ gas bottles, sheds broken into, locks broken and the usual things stolen like patio furniture.

    It is an offence to offend their dirty ways. I hope none of them pitch up beside as they don’t care about your way of living.

  11. The council run sites charge rent much like a council house. There should be a small surplus of free plots to accommodate movement between sites. There isn’t enough plots to keep up with growth, and hasn’t been for years. Also the European court of human rights has forced more than one council to supply the bear minimum plots to accommodate a small number of families.

  12. The honest answer is as a community they need to fix their image.

    A prime example was “60 days with the Gypsies” with Ed Stafford it should have been an easy good publicity for their community even then they came over as arseholes. (Including spreading shit on his windshield, breaking into his caravan)

    I suspect most people would be ok with them staying anywhere if they cleared up, left no rubbish. There is a feral group within their community that spoil it for them all.

  13. Are we still pretending these people are a race?

    Sorry but living in a caravan is not a race or an ethnicity. It’s not racist to dislike these people.
