Hi folks,
There are thieves targeting football clubs at the moment, the following: Raunds, Cogenhoe, Olney, Irchester have been hit so far.
Clearly someone is casing the joint during games.
Please be vigilant.

This is clearly very serious! Thanks for bringing it to everyones attention.
Hopefully every club will take this warning on board and implement measures to ensure these theives prosper no more during the matches.
Hopefully someone will catch them and string them up!

Well said kpstar and monk. We had a robbery at S & L some years ago.
A 'character' was seen hanging around outside the visitors' dressing room. We presumed he was with them, they thought he was our man waiting to lock up. In the seconds it took to go from the bar to the dressing rooms our players were several quid out of pocket.
Luckily he was caught (months later) and admitted to nearly 300 raids on sports clubs from Lincolnshire down to the London area.
Check with visiting teams if unsure of any strangers 'hanging around'.

well let me help you with one cost - SKY Sports - it's on in the clubhouse and on 3 screens and it costs hundreds (around £800/month I think) to have the legal stuff - just so you can have the benefit when you want to get to the ground early and watch the Live early game and then watch the 5:30 game afther the 1st team game - there's no extra charge! And just so your clear again - the legal SKY Sports has a beer glass in the corner of the screen that moves around - take a look at wherever you go and see if you can spot it, coz there the ones that you will probably appreciate more mate. It costs money to do things properly! Acceptable level - you must need brain surgery Andy. They've invetsed well over £700 thousand to make your visit more enjoyable. You won't pay a pound extra for all that - you miserable tight fisted ... thanks for the support Kev, I don't know all the costs but I know it aint cheap like you say. Clearly If my warning hadn't been move to the section hardly anyone bothers about then you wouldn't be advertising what's in your club for thieves to nick! Let hope the £1 isn't the only daylight robbery at Yaxley?? |

I actually think your warning would have been more at home in Site News? Thefts from football grounds don't only happen at our level,they happen above and below,it has happened at premiership level right down to sunday league.It is no less of a theft to have that fiver stolen from your pocket,the one you had saved for after the game,than a £30,000 rolex watch.BE VIGILANT.

Anyway, the current spate has happened in the last week or so. So prompt warning to other clubs was needed. Well I would have thought so anyway................................Well yes I am bloody annoyed about it being moved and still, so there......grrrrr |
