The B-Ark / Re: Drugs, crime and Ashton United
« on: August 30, 2009, 11:11:31 PM »

Not sure if anyone else saw it, but I watched a fly-on-the-wall police TV documentary earlier today which showed a drugs raid in Greater Manchester. As the police were breaking down the door at the front of the property, the cameras panned across the road. A big sign stating "Welcome to Hurst Cross" came into view.

So we now know that you can buy illegal drugs directly opposite Ashton United Football Club!

Fortunately Boston don't go to Ashton again until February. But generally those people with drug problems get involved in crime to fund their habits. And it doesn't take a genius to work out that (a) a BUFC car sticker or a sticker with "so-and-so garage" of Boston will belong to people who are attending a match, (b) that the same car will remain unattended until after the final whistle, and (c) that in all probability it may contain a sat nav or similar gadgets.

All of this brings home the basic crime prevention sense to make sure everything is out of view, etc., etc., and perhaps to park a little further away from the ground and walk to it.

Unibond League fans are a friendly bunch and there's hardly ever any trouble inside grounds. But is there perhaps an argument for having stewards patrolling outside of grounds and looking after vehicles whilst matches are in progress?

The documentary pixelated the faces of the criminals involved so that they couldn't be identified. Presumably that's due to their human rights. But shouldn't Ashton United have more rights not to be identified?

Did you not go to Ashton last year? There was more than just one house I'd imagine. Some of the area around the ground was very much akin to something out of Shameless

Especially with Manure vs Liverpool on Sky!!

I remember feeling slightly uncomfortable in the "pub" when Gerrard scored and kissed the camera!

I can't make it tonight.  I was just looking at the Kendal forum though, and I see BBC Radio Cumbria are offering them full commentary tonight on FM, AM and online.  I assume BBC Radio Lincolnshire will be providing us with the similar coverage tonight?
Almost...

It still happens at Old Trafford, even on a bottle of beer you couldn't actually take into the stand anyway!

I did notice a couple of times, the Kendal full back would put the ball down, wait for the ref to get the wall back, then retreat the ball a yard or two..
