Lincs Owl Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Unfortunately if you park on the lower end of Herries Road, it's obvious you are going to the game, especially if you have Owls stickers etc showing on your car. I park over a mile from the ground, overlooked by houses. Not obvious I'm at the footy. Long walk back but safer. Some people leave jumpers, coats on the back seat. Only takes a second to put stuff in the boot. I imagine it's the same kid doing it. Probably on drugs. I've seen a few cars with windows smashed. Seems worse between 5 Arches viaduct and Herries school (or whatever it's now called... on Penrith Rd). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't understand why people park on herries anymore with cars getting broke into every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justbeanz Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Been going on for years. Probably expecting a bit much for SYP to have done something about it by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cars parked further up nearer the houses always appear ok. I don't know if things are being taken from the cars or if its just scum being malicious. Just a heads up to fellow fans. Hardly a "heads up" years after you noticed it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
