As predicted by George Osborne recently.

I am 69 and this has been going on since I moved to Champion Hill with my parents in the earlier 50's, why has the football suddenly become a problem. It never was.


Have people changed that much.


They used to let you in free at half time does that still happen?

"And we're talking about a club we'd like to see go up to new leagues etc which would involve the ground expanding from 1,000 to up to 5,000 supporter ground."


Now I really am puzzled by the lack of information from Cllr. Barber!


The current ground has a capacity of 3,000. As set by the London Borough of Southwark when the ground opened in 1992.


We were promoted to the Premier Division of the Ryman League in 2013. In 2013/14 our average home league attendance was 667. Last season our average home attendance was 1,070. And crowds have continued to grow this season, with this Saturday just gone being a season best of 2,249; for a home league average so far of 1,202. Our lowest league gate was a 555 figure, on a midweek night, when our crowds are lower, due to less of our young family orientated support getting out on schoolnigts, the crowd for the mythical drums night being only 617.


The proposed capacity for the new stadium is 4,000, as has always been mentioned as such in all preliminary public consultations with the developers. Perhaps Cllr. Barber could explain where he got the five thousand figure from?

    • 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?
