I still hope they are not too badly hurt!

I asked police what was going on as my son often comes home at that time and the 185 was in the cordon, he said "someone was stabbed" I asked if it was a young guy, he said "Is your son black" I said no, then he said you've nothing to worry about, and he's not dying.

Would also be wrong to assume ppl are not responsible beings don't you think?


No need to come down heavy handed on us mere members admin for saying it as we're hearing and seeing now.

I have not said that, I am asking people to report anything they may have seen to the police.

Sorry if I appear "heavy handed", I am simply asking people to not post rumours as they can be detrimental to the incident, such as the "someone's been killed" "no one's been killed" posts.

Major or minor, it's still one too many.

maybe Im an old cynic, maybe not, but ultimately these things can have a "greater good". I hope no-one is injured too seriously, but if it means that the "clowns" involved in the incident change their ways long-term then maybe, just maybe, the world might be a better place for us all, them included. Better it didnt happen in the first place sure, but if it does lets hope it has a positive impact to those involved.

kel and theallseeingeye, i think admin is just trying to make the (very good) point that rumour mungering about something this serious isn't particularly constructive - i've seen relatives in hospital waiting rooms browsing the forum on PDAs and putting the fear into them on principle of freedom of speech isn't so helpful. Neither is knit-picking an attempt to encourage people to come forward.

    • The big difference, other than increasingly flaking paint, seems to be graffiti. The question is, will that/ can it be controlled?
    • I took back my 🤣 because I think the idea is unworkable expensive and would produce little result.  There seems to be people in the office next to the toilet but I don’t think they leave the office. I’m not sure what they do there.  The toilets have been in a disgusting state for months and months with many promises to repair they are not functional and they invite vandalism. I shall  try to add a couple of photos. The council doesn’t care why should we?
    • There will always be kids pushing the envelope as the saying goes, but having some boundaries should help most understand what they can and cannot do. I think dedicated, daily park wardens is exactly what is required...with a hotline to SNT teams on the beat. Is there no way money made from Gala or from Park parking fees can be diverted to provide that funding? I feel it would be a really good use of money. The principle aim being to maintain the park as a safe and relaxing environment for all. If funding really cannot be found I wonder if there might be funding to at least train volunteer park wardens?
    • Its almost the same as Grove Vale School , now Goose Green School.
