...particularly as the games are only over one leg and the team's final position determines whether they play at home. So the team finishing second will always be at home and the team finishing fifth (Dulwich last year) will always be away.

Ha! Having attended many of them, I have to agree with you, taper. However, I've noticed that - in recent years anyway - this has tended to happen when they've started the season strongly with good placings in the table. This didn't happen this season and so am hoping that an alternative pattern (hopefully the reverse) is emerging...


*feeling excited*

Finishing third is a great advantage because it would get Hamlet a home play off semi final, and just possibly a home final (if the 5th team wins at the 2nd in the semi). Let's all get there on Monday and help them home.


Worth mentioning also that Hamlet have following today's results (barring unrealistic goal difference swings in the last two games) qualified for the playoffs, though we could still finish as low as 5th. (This is because the 4th and 5th teams have yet to play each other, so can't both pass us.)

      That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring

      The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.

      Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!

      Does anyone know what time tonight's events, the second night of the new phenomenon of Halloween Fireworks, end? These do sound too major to be anything but large- scale organised events and they are loud, very loud. So anyone, for their own reasons, that dislikes or objects to this level of noise for the next x amount of hours, really has no choice in the matter! Could those addicted to loud bangs possibly have a kind of silent disco setup with the bangs sent through headphones, so the rest of us could be spared?
