Hi, we are considering buying a house next to the stadium of Hamlets FC, on the opposite side from tribunes. Can somebody advise on the noise in the area because of football fields? None of us is a football player/spectacular, we cannot even understand the FC webpage. The agent is saying that we should only worry about the noise from Saturday afternoons. Is it true? Are games always scheduled around the same time? Should we only worry about screams from tribunes or players as well? Thank you in advance

I am a resident living on that estate for the past 3 years.


The matches happen mostly on a Saturday afternoon, plus occasional games on Tuesday/Thursday evenings.


No usually not a problem with noise, their average turnout is around 200.

Occasionally there are pre-season friendlies where the place is rammed but these are very few and far between.

Tribunes?

I'm sure Sulla had one or two of them tortured, but I'm sure it's not enough of a problem in modern Brittania to worry about.


Seriously though, I wouldn't give it a second thought, the car wash in the car park probably generates more noise than the Hamlet crowd.

Yes, particularly dangerous in the winter when its got ice on it.

I live on Abbotswood Road rather than Burrow Road, so can't comment on the lane running down the side of the football club... but "kids riding and burning stolen motorbikes will leave your 2am slumber in tatters too.". Pfffft. Come off it. You are making it up. There is a noticeable lack of burnt out bikes round here for that to be true.

    • Eh? That wasn't "my quote"! If you look at your post above,it is clearly a quote by Rockets! None of us have any  idea what a Corbyn led government during Covid would have been like. But do you seriously think it would have been worse than Johnson's self-serving performance? What you say about the swing of seats away from Labour in 2019 is true. But you have missed my point completely. The fact that Labour under Corbyn got more than ten million votes does not mean that Corbyn was "unelectable", does it? The present electoral system is bonkers, which is why a change is apparently on the cards. Anyway, it is pointless discussing this, because we are going round in circles. As for McCluskey, whatever the truth of that report, I can't see what it has to do with Corbyn?
    • Exactly what I said, that Corbyn's group of univeristy politics far-left back benchers would have been a disaster during Covid if they had won the election. Here you go:  BBC News - Ex-union boss McCluskey took private jet flights arranged by building firm, report finds https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp3kgg55410o The 2019 result was considered one of the worst in living memory for Labour, not only for big swing of seats away from them but because they lost a large number of the Red-wall seats- generational Labour seats. Why? Because as Alan Johnson put it so succinctly: "Corbyn couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag"! https://youtu.be/JikhuJjM1VM?si=oHhP6rTq4hqvYyBC
    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
