Not interested in what happens in and around that hovel. Parking on the pavement should be 3 points and a £60 fine. Alternatively, a key right down to the metal all the way from the front wing to the back wing would be equally acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I no longer live within Sheffield but pavement parking is becoming an issue in many cities. I thought it was already illegal to park on a pavement but I read recently it is only a specific offence in Scotland. Where I live now most people park with two wheels on the pavement otherwise emergency vehicles like fire engines would not easily pass. I believe this is why most councils are reluctant to consider an outright ban. I’m guessing that in the current climate though, if you have a wheel on the curb anywhere around Hillsborough on match day you can expect a large fine. Fine for what offence? As long as the vehicle isn't causing an obstruction then what can they do? If you're parked illegally then you deserve a fine. Park in a no parking zone you deserve a fine. I'll be honest, I haven't read the star article cos it's blocked, but where are they going to clamp down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be honest, I haven't read the star article cos it's blocked, but where are they going to clamp down? Point being made by wheelchair/mobility scooter users/pram pushers on here is that cars parked on pavements do cause an obstruction, forcing them into the road to get past. There seems to be a move in many cities to clamp down on this and Scotland have outlawed it altogether. My point was that Sheffield council seems very keen to make an example of anyone they deem to be parking illegally around Hillsborough on match days. For that reason I would be very careful about parking with wheels on a pavement near Hillsborough any time on those days. Streets around the ground where parking is banned on match days were outlined in the confusing document sent to residents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m no expert in football ground safety, but I’m fairly sure that, and the confiscation of a 4 year olds Diet Cola bottle top don’t represent clear and present danger. Quite agree, ludicrous.

He's that desperate to improve his corner kicks, that he's resorted to wandering around S6 after training in the hope of catching a game on someones TV. I believe in this photo, he managed to stumble across a local resident watching the Real Madrid game over the weekend who had Toni Kroos on corner duties. Let's hope he's learnt something.

bobbycraig Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 My disabled wife is unable to use her mobility scooter on Parkside Road on matchdays, due to inconsiderate drivers parking on the pavement, and ignoring the no parking cones. Nobody takes any action against them. The cars are usually expensive 4x4s, apparently unwilling to pay to park in Hillsborough Park car park. We pay £70 for a season long permit to park in the Park. Emergency vehicles struggle to get through on match days, due to the cars parked on the pavement. Action is long overdue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musn't Grumble Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Well these two websites hardly clarify the matter either... https://www.askthe.police.uk/content/Q387.htm https://www.rac.co.uk/drive/advice/legal/parking-on-the-pavement/ Therefore, I'm supposing that the cars parking on the pavement on the Hillsborough Park side of Parkside Road are possibly causing an obstruction because they have to block the pavement to create enough room for traffic to go up and down Parkside Road. Otherwise, it's a case of park where you like as long as you are not causing an obstruction, the council hasn't put restrictions on the road/pavement/verges, you are not blocking access or you are parking in London. As ever, I am not a legal expert and not qualified to provide legal statements so I am only referring to advice given by acknowledged "experts".

I hate this council with a big H . Nice rant mate. It would have helped if any of it was factually correct. What is or isn't allowed into the ground is nothing whatsoever to do with the Council. You crack on though, if it makes you feel better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would disagree You were proposing unnecessary damage on a vehicle. That would have resulted in a criminal conviction, loss of job, loss of earnings, possible loss of house and a besmirched name in the local community. The QC for the prosecution would argue that your actions, at best, were cavalier. I think you may be World Champion. Champ. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ash76 Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 I agree that people shouldn't park either fully on partly on pavements for all reasons mentioned but anyone keying cars that do are far far worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
