When you say, "Nearly ran me over", what happened? How close to you were they? What evasive action did you have to take to avoid contact? Where were you, and where were the police, when the collision with you nearly happened? The car they were chasing. How fast was that going, and did that nearly hit you?

Not much detail for us to comment on zetagi.

All done ? Cool, so do you really think they would have run you over ? Really ? I doubt it, why rant at an officer when he is clearly doing his job ? You wouldn't be going off on one if it had been your car stolen would you ?

All done ? Cool, so do you really think they would have run you over ? Really ? I doubt it, why rant at an officer when he is clearly doing his job ? You wouldn't be going off on one if it had been your car stolen would you ?there was no need for a police officer to tell her to *******,and they are not allowed to speed in built up areas , remember what happened a few weeks ago when a car bieng chased ended up in a garden ,killing a young lad on the wybourn estate ?that is why we have the police helicopter,plus a radio contact could have blocked off the stolen car as there arnt that many ways off dagnam road

Why rant ? well it is a child friendly zone of 20 mph, when a car is traveling towards you at 100 mph it doesnt give you much time to get out of the way does it, there was a small boy of 5 years old on his scooter by the side the road,
The police officer was like a child with a new toy in that performance car (Dangerous) if he was doing his job darling , surley the muggers would have been caught,but they wasn't caught, but inocent people could have died, for their stupidity.

You should be arrested for your grammar and spelling - its embarrassing! :D

I often wondered how the police managed to do such a difficult job without cracking up and swearing under the strain.

Now I know they are as human as the rest of us.

100+ mph seems a bit fast as an estimate though.

Absolutely agree with you Depoix.We all have a job to do. How many of us would be allowed to speak to the public in such a way? We all have the right to question.
To the op-i really would make a complaint if he told you to f*******. You clearly know his name,so rather than wind yourself up-make a stand and do something about it :thumbsup:

pc ********* not only told me to cough, he also told me to get on a diet, and he hoped that i got robbed tonight, well pc ********* thankyou for that comment, its a good job the incident was filmed on my mates mobile phone, so watch the space

The officer said this car had been screeching around for 4 days mugging old aged pensioners, well if thats the case why has it took so long and after all this performance the muggers are still running free well done syp :thumbsup:

You sure ? How do you know what speed it was - 30 MPH can look very fast.

He has been driving those cars for years !!



if he was doing his job darling ,

Erm nope - Lindsey

surley the muggers would have been caught,but they wasn't caught, but inocent people could have died, for their stupidity.

Maybe if he'd been doing 150 mph he might have caught the muggers ..... but he was only doing 100:suspect: because that was as fast as he could safely control the car in the circumstances. And he got a rollicking for that!

He was going too fast, but he hasn't done his job because he didn't catch the criminal.:confused:

Just can't win can they.:rolleyes:

Missed the latest post about muggings..... Sorry 'bout that

the police do a very difficult,thankless job. Nobody is arguing with that. However,this pC was out of order. He should not have used that language and should not have made personal remarks to an innocent man who was shaken up and probably scared. I really cannot think or any arguement that will make me change my view. He was wrong.

whether understandable or not,he is in a position of power and is paid to remain calm when doing his job. if he cant remain proffessional,then maybe he should have a career change. :)

Maybe he and his pals are a little fed up with banging their heads against a brick wall trying to please everybody and their grannies, but never getting much gratitude for their pains ... only criticism.

They're human, and as long as they are out there doing whatever it takes to put the scum behind bars - despite the crap judicial system - then they have my backing and support with whatever methods they choose to use to get results. I will always back the police against the criminal, and those who complain about them when they are doing their best.

If someone had a go at me for simply doing my job to the best of my ability, I'd probably tell them to 'F' off as well, especially if that job was on behalf of the persons doing the complaining.

I have to agree with every word of this Saxon
Spot on.

Also just to add........ where is this Sommerfield ?
I want to know as I have never seen a carpark in my life big enough to do 100MPH .......... ???

you was not there mate if you were you would have need to sit down mate trust me that was horrid

i support the polce as well-just not blindly. I have a difficult job working with difficult people at times. It too is thankless,for a lot less money. Just because a man or woman dons a uniform and works with criminals,does not mean they are faultless. To blindly believe that because they are the police,they do not have to answer for their actions is dangerous. Where do you draw the line? Maybe the op deserves a wee slap as well as insults and abuse-after all he did question the police?

you was not there mate if you were you would have need to sit down mate trust me that was horrid
Sorry if they upset you zetagi, but I don't think a car doing a lot of miles per hour past me would have been a life-changing experience. The joyriders do it all the time. A police car, however, would have at least been driven by someone qualified to drive at high speeds in built-up areas.

Better they drive fast and catch the scum, than hold back incase someone is upset. Just do it safely [as far as innocent people are concerned] is all I ask of them.

-after all he did question the police?

Quote by OP: i asked the police officers why there were driveing around like nutters the unmarked police car was doing atleast a 100 mph plus & then went to tell them what a thought about southyorkshire police

More than simply 'questioning' their methods though.

you was not there mate if you were you would have need to sit down mate trust me that was horrid

Well on that note, I have to say I hope you are ok now, get a stiff drink down you.

Mod note: Zetagi, please don't personally identify anyone on this thread, including the officers concerned. Thanks.

thanks for that mod ive just been to moss way police station to make a official complaint against the sypd &the famous creep of a police officer but hey try stoping the 40 mates ive just told about it from posting on here. thanks alot

Zetagi, we don't allow naming and shaming and we afford that privilege to everyone, especially where there may be an investigation.

Thats a great name for a car, do you say it like 'missed a bus ay'? I'm sure its scary a police car going this fast in a built up area, but wasn't the stolen car being driven equally quickly? If the nutters didn't pinch cars and drive them at stupid speeds, then would the police be tearing about in pursuit - I don't think so.

SYPD? :hihi:

I personally think that the police should be congratulated for getting another scumbag off the street, rather than castigated for it...

In his defence he was driving a new car - he was stuck with the Volvo yesterday

well what ever happened to the abort police chase policy if it exeeds high speeds. then belive me if that had been you in the road & your kids & the police spoke to you like that would you just have swallowed it and not opened your gob:rant:

With that attitude toward the police I don't blame him for what he said, although I still think you may have 'stretched' it a little !

I'm sorry - I did not get a WORD of that........... ?

the chase on manor lane when the young lad was killed that was the police again pushing them to very high speeds

well i tell you what when a copper kills your kids we will have a party hey

thats out of order.

I do not wish to comment on the alleged remark made by a police officer to zetagi, as this is the subject of a police complaint investigation.

However, I do wish to make several general observations.

It is impossible to drive along Dagnam Crescent at 100 mph. The road is too short to achieve such a speed before ending up in the car-park at the rear of Somerfield. A sense of proportion is clearly required zetagi, as whilst the vehicles concerned may have been driven fast, they could not have reached this suggested speed on Dagnam Crescent.

I am delighted to learn about this particular police operation. The new Safer Neighbourhood Area Team are clearly responding to the concerns and anxieties of Arbourthorne folk about a number of criminals who think that they can nick cars and drive around the estate with impunity. I wish the police well and every success in trying to rid the estate of these thieves.

Now that's really silly, I dont want to get personal with you & I wont, this is all about perception, and I believe your perception is blown out of all proportion because you are emotional about it, you seem to be taking it very personal that a police officer was driving at 100MPH in a car park where you were present - Big Car Park that one - no need to get so upset about it.
Admit that you are wrong and then we can all play nice again.
Oh & stop ranting - it's not a good look :)

Hmmmm, I don't know what to make of this one. From what i have seen of pc ?,he seems to conduct chases in a very professional manner,taking in to account any possible hazards, particularly pedestrians.

no the unmarked police sports car was goin up dagnam road then it all ended in the somerfield car park & no its a small car park.

the chase on manor lane when the young lad was killed that was the police again pushing them to very high speeds

Neither the police, nor that poor lad who died in that horrible incident on manor lane forced those scumbags to "twoc" that car, or the allegedly stolen car in the incident you complain about tonight.

I say more power to the police's elbow. (and well done to them for reducing this sort of crime)

If they are stopping these little swines from twoccing, then it's a result:- one more person who can sleep easy tonight, knowing the car they paid hard-earned money for will still be on their drive tomorrow morning, where they left it.

PT

dagnam road is were the police were defo doing 100 mph as you will know there's a give way the police shot the give way up dagnam road then turnin in to the top of the crescent so get your facts right mate dagnam road is long you could do 150 never mind 100mph

doubt it, zetagi; my sister lived on there, and it's too narrow to do those sort of speeds on.

well i live on dagnam road & see it every day so your sister must have lived there in the day of the horse&cart.

Zetagi,

Please cool it a little - no need to start getting personal here.

Thanks.

well i live on dagnam road & see it every day so your sister must have lived there in the day of the horse&cart.

Do you think you were maybe dreaming ? You know like in double speed ??

Perhaps we can all just take a breather here now? I'm going to close the thread for a while while peoples emotions calm down.

Zetagi, please give me a shout later or in the morning by PM and I'll reopen the thread for you. :) I hope you feel better soon.

Thanks.

I'm not sure what kind of witness you'd make in court zetagi. Your thread title doesn't mention a police chase up Dagnam Road, but "Police chase on dagnam crescent ends in sommerfield car park".

Whatever your perceptions of the individual police officer you say you spoke to about the chase, I take strong issue with you when you refer to making your complaint at "any pig shop".

As one of your ward councillors, I have spent many hours touring Arbourthorne with the police, on foot and by car. Together we've met local people, looked at policing issues, and discussed strategies for making Arbourthorne a safer area to live. I would hope that you too would support police action to apprehend criminals, and tackle anti-social behaviour.

Like the majority of the decent, hard working folk of Arbourthorne, I want the new safer police team for the area to succeed. Hopefully on more mature reflection zetagi, you can drop this silly name calling of the police, and get on board with supporting your local police in making Arbourthorne a safer place for everyone to live their lives.

But if you persist with your offensive language towards the police - I'd begin to suspect that instead of you being part of the solution, you're actually part of the problem?

zetagi, i've been watching this thread and it would seem that you have a bit of a chip on your shoulder, have you been mis handled by the Police before.?

I doubt very much that your version of events is exact and would say that you are a typical wiifm person - how much you looking to sue the Police for when you trumped up compliant gets a 'tick in the box' response?

Let the police do their job and you do yours !! I bet if it were you that had been mugged you would have been egging the Police on, not moaning that you saw them scream past you (how close were they?) chasing the muggers and you nearly dropped your stella!!

Perhaps we can all just take a breather here now? I'm going to close the thread for a while while peoples emotions calm down.

Zetagi, please give me a shout later or in the morning by PM and I'll reopen the thread for you. :) I hope you feel better soon.

Thanks.

Kindly take your issues with the Mods to the HelpDesk. Your post has contributed not a jot to the discussion about an apparent high speed police car chase on Arbourthorne.

RazorSHarp raises an interesting point. If zetagi had been the victim of a crime, would he/she have adopted a different attitude towards the police? I rather suspect that zetagi would indeed have been screaming for the police to catch the thieves, rather than moaning on the side-lines about the way in which the police conduct their operation to catch the thieves.

The police are dammed if they do and dammed if they don’t

We need to support the Police not abuse them

Zetagi if you approached the police with an attitude like it sounds you have then what do you expect back from them

Try to treat people as you would like to be treated and then see what responses you get

Maybe he and his pals are a little fed up with banging their heads against a brick wall trying to please everybody and their grannies, but never getting much gratitude for their pains ... only criticism.

There are sometimes threads on here that renew your faith in the human race. I am impressed by the number of people who have taken the OP seriously enough to want to address his concerns despite his continuous rather rude rebuffs. The tone of the OP's posts have long since lost any sympathy I might have felt for his 'frightening experience.' Good on you, you patient folk.

The patient posts are fine, but the OP losing their temper is much funnier to watch. Thanks for the chuckle....

I must say I would like to shake that coppers hand it's hard enough to handle your car at 30mph on Dag Crescent due to crap parking and the constant turning angle. Just think if you had been a bit more vigilant and hadn't nearlly got run over, causing the police to stop and you to rant at them, then, they may well have caught the culprits in the car they were chasing.

I hear this all night in this area, and I tell you it gets me so mad that people have nothing better to do at 4am than drive like complete prats and keep people awake, who work or have got kids.

There seems to be no resepect for authority in this area and you heven't helped the matter. That little kid who you mentioned that was near by would have seen you ranting at the Police and taken that as 'acceptable'.

To be fair you seem to have been graphic on the details of what the PC said to you but there is no details of what you said to him! That would be interesting to know.

Now i have had time to reflect on the situation, i too feel that the police have got a job to do, with lots of responsibility, but the whole experience was not a nice one. and the muggers will still be mugging, innocent people could have been killed that day. The car he was driving was to powerful for him to handle, as clearly demonstated by his driving ability, with a turn in the road. with plenty of wittnesess, its not the job the police do i have a problem with, its the way in which they use there power as police. neither you nor i can abuse our positions as employees so why should they ?

If he wasn't able to handle the vehicle he wouldn't be driving it, most officers are trained to drive patrol cars, usually sub 1.6 litre, anything above and they have to go for the response car course and then for the traffic cops there is an even harder exam to pass. So you have assumed that SYP allow any bobby into any car to drive, untrained, at brake neck speeds, endangering the lives of the people they are meant to be protecting?

And one last thing how can you judge 'the power they use' whilst he was driving a car? or are you talking about once you had approached him calmly to let him know your thoughts on his driving, pointing out how he should be driving, then politely pointing out that he may want to get some training and revisit his Policing abilities.? Would you like someone telling you how to do your job? I bet you weren't raising your voice, wagging your finger, and getting so close to the bobby inquestion that he could smell what your last meal was!!

Met your type before mate...

Let the Police do what they do best and give them an occasional well done.!!

I see that your Avatar is a picture of Dominic Noonan. Maybe your choice of Avatar explains your attitude to the Police in general.
For those of you who don't know who Dominic Noonan is try Googling his name, he has spent 22 years out of his 40 years on this earth in prison.

The Police have a hard job to do and on the whole, I would suggest, they do a good job.

I think I have a plot for an episode of ‘The Bill’ – partly based on reality.

The best pursuit driver in the local force is chasing some muggers. They are negotiating the narrow streets of a residential area, and the police – in an unmarked Mitsubishi Evo - are gaining on the muggers.

The police are doing about 45-50mph - about the same speed as the car they are chasing – but it looks to be about 100mph to the bystanders. Especially one bystander who is walking her dog.

‘Bugger moving out of the way,’ thinks the dog walker, ‘They shouldn’t be going that fast around here!’

She stands her ground, as if to prove a point, causing the pursuit car to slow down and lose the muggers in a supermarket car park.

“F**k off out of the way!” shouts the pursuit driver in frustration, as he is forced to give up the chase.

“You are driving like a nutter mate, and The Metropolitan Police are a load of crap,” shouts the dog walker to the already rattled driver.

“What the hell do you think you’re doing?” asks the driver, “Didn’t you see the blue strobe lights or hear our siren? Why didn’t you shift and let us through?”

“Why should I? I had right of way. Anyway, you can’t expect someone my size to just run out of the way to let nutters like you through.”

“In that case, you need to lose weight madam. Because of you we’ve lost them again.”

“Not my problem madam, you shouldn’t be driving so fast, even if they were criminals you were chasing!”

“If that’s your attitude love, I hope you get burgled or something tonight, then we’ll see how you like it if someone like you assumes the same attitude and causes the burglars to get away!”

Bystander reports the pursuit driver’s attitude to his superiors …………….

'get your facts right mate dagnam road is long you could do 150 never mind 100mph'

To get up to 150mph you need a very long stretch of road. Even my M5 wouldn't be able to push that on Dagnam road. But if the copper was following a Citroen Xsara that wouldn't be able to hit 100mph its too underpowered on such a short stretch. Have the police got an unmarked Evo? I thought only the Essex lot had them.

my point exactly,

you'd be hard-pressed to get to 150 on a long, straight main road like carlisle street (with the mile long bit that folk seem so keen on racing along) let alone a narrow, cars-usually-parked-both-sides, residential street like Dagnam Road.

Not to mention the 150 metres or so you would need to stop in when braking from 100 mph to 0 mph - and that doesn't include 'thinking distance'!!

I have now been in contact with the Head of the Road Crime Unit, who is in charge of the officers being referred to in this case.

I have been assured that the officers working in this unit are all highly trained and skilled police drivers, using marked and unmarked cars to target criminals where they are most vulnerable - on the roads.

This highly specialised police unit target burglars, drug runners, car thieves and local prolific offenders.

This particular incident was a stolen car taken in a house burglary. (They are called 2 in 1 burglaries - where burglars break in to a house at night to steal the car keys, and then take the car). This is a big problem for the police at the moment.

The Head of the Road Crime Unit was on duty with his team at the time of this incident. They were working in certain localities, which I will not divulge for operational reasons, and made a couple of arrests that night.

I am assured that any official complaint will be investigated.

I am delighted to know that this specialised police unit are after the criminals who blight the lives of ordinary folk, and that arrests were made on this occasion. :clap:

zetagi - can I suggest that now you have had time to reflect and calm down, that you also stop digging a hole for yourself.

As a local councillor, I want every resident in Arbourthorne to get behind the new Safer Neighbourhoods Area policing team. They and their colleagues in the Road Crime Unit are doing a grand job. I'm visiting the police team next Monday with Meg Munn MP, and I shall take the opportunity of congratulating them in person on a successful operation. :thumbsup:

zetagi - can I suggest that now you have had time to reflect and calm down, that you also stop digging a hole for yourself.

As a local councillor, I want every resident in Arbourthorne to get behind the new Safer Neighbourhoods Area policing team. They and their colleagues in the Road Crime Unit are doing a grand job. I'm visiting the police team next Monday with Meg Munn MP, and I shall take the opportunity of congratulating them in person on a successful operation. :thumbsup:

well done south yorkshire police!!:clap: :clap: and may you catch many, many more of these thieving little gits!

Yeay!!!!!!!! :clap::clap::clap:
Good on the lads and lasses................ job well done, inspite of public harrassment.

I'm visiting the police team next Monday with Meg Munn MP, and I shall take the opportunity of congratulating them in person on a successful operation. :thumbsup:

Give them a pat on the back from me aswell :thumbsup:

It's nice to know that operations are still being run to be proactive and getting these bug*gers before they cause any more heartache and suffering.

Also robbo, do you know anything of the judicial reform that is taking place regarding the current sentecing laws and the propsed revision of existing statutes?

Give them a pat on the back from me aswell :thumbsup:

Will do RazorSharp :thumbsup:

It's nice to know that operations are still being run to be proactive and getting these bug*gers before they cause any more heartache and suffering.

The police have taken me into their confidence on a number of
pro-active operations that they are going to be running over time - and I feel sure that these will also pay results.

The local Safer Neighbourhood Area policing team hold monthly neighbourhood action group meetings in Arbourthorne (which cover Arbourthorne, Norfolk Park and Gleadless) where together we are beginning to get to grips with a range of crime and anti-social behaviour issues.


Also robbo, do you know anything of the judicial reform that is taking place regarding the current sentecing laws and the proposed revision of existing statutes?

In a short word - 'no'! That's because I'm only a city councillor, not an MP. But I'll ask Meg Munn MP on Monday what she knows.

Sarah Noonan,

i think not.

HERE HERE !
It makes a welcome and refreshing change to see positive posts about the police and everyones acknowledgement of the good job they do under very difficult circumstances . Who amongst us could honestly say they could do the job ? It must seem sometimes that there isn't an honest person on the face of the earth and no one appreciates the job they do ! Let me join the previous posters - well done all of you and keep up the good work !

As a resident of Sheffield my whole life and having lived on several estates, including Arbourthorne....it always makes me smile at the attitude of a minority of people...(like this thread starter)...

When a stolen car races around the streets, us residents are in uproar at it..complaining the police don't do anything about them..

and then when the police do chase the criminals...certain residents complain that the police are driving too fast!!!

If it wasn't so serious and stupid a complaint.:loopy: ..it would be hilarious !:hihi:

So what's the alternative.? Let the criminals drive about at mega speeds, but the police should tootle after them at 30mph..in the hope that they might catch up?:loopy: :huh:

Instead of going and complaining to the police chiefs about their men and women, perhaps you should be congratulating them on taking the initiative and dealing with the criminals that ruin our fine city.

I save hard to afford my 10 year old car, so that I dont have to catch a bus at 5am every morning....and if some toe-rag had pinched it...I'd hope the police did their very best to catch them........and if I found the police had been hindered by some muppet who had been standing in the road complaining about them...i'd be less than pleased....I tell you!:rant:

These boys and girls in blue (as my dear Mom would say)...do a fine job keeping us safe..and they no doubt have families of their own that they want to return to at the end of a shift...
Their jobs are dangerous and their shifts unpredictable and unsociable....I've worked at the same factory for many years....but wouldn't give it up to become a copper in today's society....so least we can do for these heroes is to support them......

I have read this forum for months, but never posted before...but this subject has incensed me enough to do so.....

One thing I have found pleasing from reading it through from start to finish..is to know that I'm not alone in praising and supporting the police..and it's nice and refreshing to know that there are other grateful residents out there too...

"Support your Sheriff's office" I say.....:thumbsup:

Welcome 'tallpaul' :thumbsup:

Nice to have another intelligent poster on board.

PS. Brilliant first post aswell. :thumbsup:

just been walking my dog & a blue unmarked police car mistabusi evo in dark blue nearly run me over& a five year old kid chaseing some muggers in a silver stolen citeron xarar i asked the police officers why there were driveing around like nutters the unmarked police car was doing atleast a 100 mph plus & then went to tell them what a thought about southyorkshire police & then they wanted to nick me well pc ********* you $ your collegues are abuseing your position has a police officer& they never even caught them i not gonna forget this in a hurry

And then you woke up...

I'd be very very surprised if the police car didn't have an on-board video system on board - when they review the tapes from this at the "pig shop", they will be able to see what actually happened...and my money is on it being worlds apart from your account of events.

Well done the SYPD!

Welcome 'tallpaul' :thumbsup:

Nice to have another intelligent poster on board.

PS. Brilliant first post aswell. :thumbsup:
Well said Tallpaul - and welcome to the Forum ! XX

Thanks very much saxon51 and Betty1 :)

Incidentally, my suspicions were correct....a person who complains about the police chasing people....is the very same one who once wrote the following (on this very same forum);


"2 mini bikes thats all your moaning about theres armys of the little gits on mini bikes were i am near city road the police do nothing at all dont even bother chaseing them no more you wanna try living up here for a week mate that will be the least of your worries if you think for a minute phoneing the old bill on the hundreds of brainless cycling cappers will do any thing then your mad all the police do is slame down the phone"


Hypocrisy as it's most transparent...me thinks...:suspect:

Just shows...some people can't be pleased...no matter what the police do...

he even writes that he doesn't like how RCA taxis drive everywhere at high speed... I wonder if he's gone to their 'cab office' as opposed to 'pig office'..to complain about them too...or perhaps the thought of getting a bit of 2x4 or a wheel brace around the sweed....for his trouble..isn't worth risking...:huh:

Hello Tallpaul, and welcome. :) Given the circs, all of us law abiding citizens should be pleased that the police are doing their best to catch car (or any sort of) thieves. :thumbsup:

Nothing funny going on with this username, is there! :hihi:

Just googled zetagi (http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=zetagi&meta=);)
Bit of a 'ham' then.

And NO! I'm not editing my script for 'The Bill' again so that it fits the part of a schizophrenic radio ham!

wow-im amazed at all the effort that has gone into exposing zitagi as a wee bit dodgy-i feel bad about my earlier posts now :(
Still,i hope it was clear that i was not putting down the police,just the way this poice officer spoke to zitagi.
Having said that,i reckon that IF the pc did speak to him/her the way they said,then its probably because he knew him?(i mean in a proffessional capacity!!)
Do you reckon we'll here anymore from zitagi?? :suspect: :suspect:

Probably the next time he/she has something nicked, or a neighbour bothers him/her, then they'll be back on to slag the police off for not responding quickly enough.:loopy:

i hope he/she does come back-i feel its all very dodgy,and would like to interogate them,for several hours :suspect: :D

And if this WAS just an anti-police rant, let's hope the named (removed quickly by the Mods) PC responds by coming down on him/her like a ton of bricks.:thumbsup:

Now i have had time to reflect on the situation, i too feel that the police have got a job to do, with lots of responsibility, but the whole experience was not a nice one. and the muggers will still be mugging, innocent people could have been killed that day. The car he was driving was to powerful for him to handle, as clearly demonstated by his driving ability, with a turn in the road. with plenty of wittnesess, its not the job the police do i have a problem with, its the way in which they use there power as police. neither you nor i can abuse our positions as employees so why should they ?

1) you're reflected because you didn't receive the support you wished for on this forum. Now you know how the police must feel at times, when they have to deal with the likes of you!

2) The muggers will still be mugging until the cops catch them. So let them catch them, instead of hindering them..both on the day and later...

3) People no doubt could have been killed...but more likely by the muggers in the stolen car...who haven't received the training that the police officer had.

4) "The way they use their power" you have a problem with? How can that be? The cops were doing their job, using their 'power' to try and catch the muggers or the car thieves...Why is that 'abusing their powers'? Or are you talking about how the cops spoke to you?

I think it's unlikely that you spoke to them in a decent manner...I bet you didn't call them 'd.i.c.k.h.e.a.d.s', did you? ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

I'm pretty sure that any bobby reading this thread will be very happy of the support given to them rather than the OP. Too often the OP gets masses of sympathy for their 'brush with death' and a an on slaught of police bashing starts.

Well done to every one on this thread seeing straight through zetagi's fabrications :thumbsup:

so what i can complain about any officer at any pig shop:rant:
And there we have it this thread finally managed to drag itself into the usual vein.

Pig shop. PLEASE :gag:

And there we have it this thread finally managed to drag itself into the usual vein.

Pig shop. PLEASE :gag:
This thread STARTED OFF in that vein, but was dragged into the realms of logic, reality, and truth by the more intelligent forummers.

And why the hell he/she/it thought complaining to the local butcher's would resolve the issue, is beyond me. :huh:

Saxon,

I only got to the bit where the pig shop was mentioned on about page 3 of the thread and just jumper in with both feet but having now read the rest of the thread I am pleased that so many forummers praised the police later on.

No probs tazman.:thumbsup:

I do that regularly mate.:)

Dont any of you corn feeders ever wonder that people live in shared accomodation. :loopy: at the end of the day,I know what happened on that day, i was present, you can only assume, and put your trust in the "sypd" like you always do, like your brain washed to beleive. Enjoy your lifes in the City of STRESS once was steel :thumbsup: Dont have nightmares please sleep well

there was no need for a police officer to tell her to *******,and they are not allowed to speed in built up areas , remember what happened a few weeks ago when a car bieng chased ended up in a garden ,killing a young lad on the wybourn estate ?that is why we have the police helicopter,plus a radio contact could have blocked off the stolen car as there arnt that many ways off dagnam road

yes we remember that we live round the corner from it

With the attitude you've displayed towards the police on this thread zetagi, you really do come across as part of the problem rather than the solution. I have friends and acquaintances who live on Dagnam Road, and my son's girl-friend lives there. I've recently done a 'wakabout' on Dagnam Road with the police. I've also been out and about on Dagnam Road to look at the decent home improvements taking place. Although I don't actually live on Dagnam Road, I think I can say that I am fairly familiar with the road. If anyone is attempting to 'brain wash', then it's you.

I've been in contact with the head of the car crime unit, as well as the Safer Neighbourood Team for Arbourthorne, and posted information relating to the skills of the police drivers, etc. Dagnam Road, like the rest of Arbourthorne, has speed bumps - and you still claim that a stolen vehicle and a police car shot along it at 100mph? :huh:

Readers will undoutbedly now decide who to believe. However, when you've been exposed as previously complaining about the police not chasing after off road bikers on a separate thread, and on this thread you're complaining about the police chasing a car - then double standards come to my mind.

As your local ward councillor, I am saddened by your attitude towards the police, and your unjustified name calling and slurs on the police force. If I should perchance come knocking on your door sometime in the near future, to solicit your vote in my next election campaign, would you let me know that you are zetagi. You see, because of your offensive diatribe about the police, I want to ask you face to face to do me a big favour - please do NOT vote for me. I have fought two elections already on a strong law and order platform. I'm right behind the police in preventing crime, arresting criminals and tackling anti-social behaviour. And frankly, with your appalling attitude towards the police, I'd rather not be embarrassed by having secured your vote.

Dont any of you corn feeders

What's a corn feeder? And in what way is it meant to be derogatory? I like the sound of the insult, tho, I might just start using it myself. It kind of sounds insulting whilst clearly having no meaning based on reality whatsoever. (Most of us eat corn in one format or other...)

"Oi! Will you bunch of corn feeders pick that stuff off the floor and go tidy your bedrooms." Yes, it sounds good to me!

:)

Well said Red, I agree 100% with your statement. zetagi comes over as one of those who only want the Police to be there when it suits them, and is only too willing to abuse anyone who stands up for the bobbies.

red,who would do such a thing ? any one on our council or is it straight from the government ? :confused:

red im sorry to inform you but all the oscar's have been awarded, so im afraid there's none left for you, awwwww, you obviously do not live in the city slums unlike some of us, its obvious my opinion will differ from yours and many more people on the forum, who cares ? not me. If you live in sheffield 10 and you see a bunch of herion addicts hanging around dealing drugs, you call the police, and most probably the police will respond very quickly to sort the problem,How ever if you live in Sheffield 2, You would most definetly be told "we will send some one round" IF WE HAVE ANYONE IN THE AREA but no responce ? hmmmm Do i really need to go on. I do not have a crimal record, so why do you insist on judging me as a criminal. i could go on and on and on but whats the point. :cool:

Zetagi i understand where you are coming from :thumbsup: i also agree that it depends on your postcode as to the service that we receive from THE SERVICES
give the guy a break. :rant:

Fair enough got name wrong. Three of the residents did see it and didn't pay attention to it for that reason. Police as usual can't be bothered with any type of enquiry despite having description of wagon, direction it went in etc Wont even check the CCTV at the bottom of Ecclesall road to see if the wagon can be seen on there. Hmm and we pay council tax for what, oh yeah to be clocked and fined doing 33 in a 30 or dropping a fag butt in the street. Working for safer communities my a**e

here zetagi here is someone else who is not happy with the police service we receive, we are not on our own :thumbsup:

Well spotted little_m :thumbsup: Let's await the :rant: from zetagi/xsarahx :rolleyes:

red .....you obviously do not live in the city slums unlike some of us, its obvious my opinion will differ from yours and many more people on the forum, who cares ? not me.

For your information zetagi, I live in S2. More than that, I happen to live on a street which is in the Arbourthorne ward that I represent on the council.

Along with the majority of Arbourthorne residents, I do not regard the area as a slum. You are entitled to differ if you wish, but that is only your opinion.

If you live in sheffield 10 and you see a bunch of herion addicts hanging around dealing drugs, you call the police, and most probably the police will respond very quickly to sort the problem,How ever if you live in Sheffield 2, You would most definetly be told "we will send some one round" IF WE HAVE ANYONE IN THE AREA but no responce ? hmmmm Do i really need to go on.

You have absolutely no proof whatsoever that the police respond to crime in a different manner according to where you live. This is a highly fictional account by you. You don't seem to have a clue what's happening with the police - just where have you been?

There are now 10 new Safer Neighbourhood Areas in Sheffield. Each is headed by an Inspector, with a Sergeant, various Police Officers, various Police Support Officers, a Community Safety Officer (who is employed by the council) and a Crime Reduction Officer making up the team. I have now chaired two meetings of the local Area Panel, where I have introduced the police Inspectors for our area. When Inspector Andy Male finished outlining his policing plans for Arbourthorne, (when he spoke at a public meeting I arranged for him at Arbourthorne Community Primary School last year), the audience of local residents broke into spontaneous applause. They are backing our own, local, Safer Neighbourhod Policing Team. Are you?

When I've talked to residents in Arbourthorne, Norfolk Park and Gleadless - they too are all backing the new safer neighbourhood police team 100%, because they are out to catch the criminals. Are you backing them zetagi?

When the specialist car crime unit chase a stolen vehicle through a part of Arbourthorne, are you cheering them to apprehend the thieves? Far from it. Instead, you come on SF and start moaning about alleged 100mph speeds - which is yet another fiction on your part.

I've been out and about with the new Safer Policing Team in Arbourthorne on 6 occasions so far. In that time I witnessed them arresting a youth for a public order offence, apprehend a woman caught fly-tipping in Norfolk Park, and uncover where a juvenile off-road biker lives. Remember off-road bikers zetagi? You complained on another thread that the police didn't even bother to chase them where you live.

I'm not calling you a criminal zetagi. But with your appalling attitude towards the police, e.g., "pig shop", it seems to me that it doesn't matter what the police do to catch criminals - you'll never be satisfied. That's why you appear to me not to be part of the solution, but a part of the problem. For safer community policing to succeed, it needs the backing of local people - but you've shown a total absence of support zetagi. Intead you do nothing but moan, invent highly fictionalised accounts of a police chase, and then have the temerity to make a complaint about the alleged police attitude towards you!

I'm not the only poster to recognise that huge chip on your shoulder.

However, I wish to be positive. So, here's the deal zetagi. I want you to meet me and a couple of the local police team to chat about policing on the Arbourthorne. PM with some spare dates and times when you are free, and I'll book a room at the Arbourthorne Centre. Over a cup of tea or coffee, we can talk in detail about how we aim to make Arbourthorne a safer area. I'll bring the biscuits. This is a serious offer zetagi. I hope you will accept it.

xsarahx........mmmmmmmmmm. is it a coincidence that zetagi has signed him/herself Sarah in some of his other posts and xsarahx has only just registered and posted in support of him. Curious indeed. :hihi:

xsarahx first registered on 17/1/2006, but has only come to light regarding this thread, the 'Monsters on mini-bikes' thread, and once enquiring about a Staffordshire Bull Terrier.:thumbsup:

Does it really matter what name anyone uses, the point is that the police abused their position in driving super fast cars in a 20 mph zone, doesnt matter if basil brush left a post, it would mean the same thing.
I have many names and many personalities, what does it matter to you corn feeders :thumbsup:

saxon well done what a wonderful peice of detective work you have acheived, you should give your services to the sypd they could surley do with your help, you should get out more sicko :gag:

You still haven't said what's wrong with being a corn feeder. Do you know? Or is it just a random couple of words that you like the sound of? Like saying 'wheateaters'? :huh:

Redrobbo is a really nice chap, zetagi, who puts in an awful lot of time caring for his community (of which, you are a member). As someone who clearly has issues about the local community and the policing of same, don't you think it would be worth meeting up with him so you can discuss your disappointments and views with your local councillor? You can hardly keep complaining if you don't even give him a chance to put things right for you!

I've reported to the Mods the post by zetagi (for the abuse against saxon51 with name calling).

Seems that the more zetagi posts, the more she can't resist name calling everyone. Apart from it being poor debating skills, it's also another sign
of an attitute problem by zetagi towards other people. Seems name calling by zetagi isn't limited to the police. :nono:

OK, people, please chill.

I've lost count of the number of warnings we've issued to this thread, and certain people dont listen, so a holiday has been given.

Let's just cool it. Unless anyone has any new insights to apply to this thread, then I'll close it shortly.

Well before any holiday was given, there was ample opportunity for zetagi to respond to my invitation to meet the police - especially as zetagi replied to other posts.

If zetagi wishes to take up my invitation to meet the police for a chat about safer policing in Arbourthorne, then, in view of this thread being closed soon, I shall await to hear via PM now.

xsarahx first registered on 17/1/2006, but has only come to light regarding this thread, the 'Monsters on mini-bikes' thread, and once enquiring about a Staffordshire Bull Terrier.:thumbsup:

The fact that the account was opened on 17/1/2006 does not allay my suspicions that Zetagi and xsarahx could be one and the same. Reading back through Chiptagi's posts it seems he has more personalities than Ken Bianchi and none of the charm. :D :D

I think this thread should be saved in an awards section. Can we start a Darwin section for this thread?

Also can I give Redrobbo a very big :thumbsup: for his responses on this topic/thread, I personally am outside of your ward Red, but I would almost move just to give you the extra vote back that you have lost on Dagnam Rd as a result of your passionate approach to what you believe in. Although judging from the OP's attitude I doubt they would go out and vote any how!!!

And a big well done to everyone who also saw fit to defend the local boys in blue from individuals like zetagi that make it their job to make the Police's job twice as hard as it already is, well done :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

XsarahX is Zetagi's partner (i'm a personal friend of them both) and i'm sure she has the right to register to the forum just like any one else and put in her view, i think this thread has got a bit out of hand and has turned in to a big farse, people have got a little hot headed and are provoking each other to name calling. Zetagi has being a family friend of mine since he's been young and is a nice chap beleive it or not (before you all make any remark). I'm sure this thread has got too much now and think it time to be closed because this disscussion has gone round and round and is never going to end anywere but in stupid insults which no one deserves. Lets call it a day MODS.
