Yes please do :suspect: I lived on there for 13 years without a problem, my parents still live there.

Parsons Cross isn't as bad as people say it is really.... there are worse parts in Sheffield.

Thought Sicey was more Firth Park anyway.

All Sicey car park is taped off with police tape. Yea Sicey is Shiregreen/Firth park.

why is it when someone asks a ? about something that has happened people get on the defensive about the area someones asked about and the original incident and the ? never gets answerd we all know there r good and bad people on the cross as there r everywhere else STICK TO THE POINT

Tell me about it! Not quite the same, but when getting an insurance quote I have found that its almost £900 more on average to insure my car in the S5 post code than a random one I found on google ( I think it was the address from a kabab house on ecclesall road) So unfair, in the past 2 years of owning my car it (thankfully) hasnt been so much as keyed, and its parked on the street.

I know its a bit late,but i've heard it was a stabbing.


It's a sad and dangerous world we live in

I know how the victim must feel having been through this kind of incident myself :(

I think we need to tighten down on people who willingly carry knifes around :rant:

nice, im meant to be working on sicey avenue in a week or so :(

Whoa, Whoa everyone. As anybody see the question at the top of the page please. Can someone answer it.:loopy:

At the Sicey it was three involved in stabbings I think.

The other incident I mentioned was a man with garden shears in his head.

This is the article that was on the link above yesterday.
Knifed man saved by pub heroes
PUB regulars and staff saved the life of a man who sustained knife wounds in an incident outside the bar.
Jack Hill, aged 38, received life-threatening injuries during the alleged confrontation outside The Sicey pub, Sicey Avenue, Shiregreen.
Two other men, named by friends as Paul Bradshaw, 34, and Craig Whyler, 32, were also hurt.
Pub landlady Lesley Tuckwood made the 999 call for help and also used a panic button installed in the pub to summon assistance.
Today Lesley told The Star Jack could have died if it had not been for the actions and bravery of bar staff and regulars at the pub, which she runs with husband Harry.
Lesley, aged 51, said: "It all happened in a flash, it was so frightening. There was blood everywhere. They brought Jack in here and they were pushing towels against his wounds to stem the blood flow.
"They were using everything they could, bar towels, tea towels, anything just to stop him losing blood.
"I was hysterical, I thought he was going to die, but they kept talking to him. They kept him alive. They must have saved his life."
Today Jack was recovering from his injuries at the Northern General Hospital where he was described as "making reasonable progress". He has undergone major surgery but has been moved off the intensive care ward.
Friends Paul and Craig were treated at hospital for knife injuries but not detained following the incident around 10pm on Friday.
Today Lesley said problems in the normally quiet area had increased after police introduced curfews in neighbouring districts, preventing gangs from gathering on the streets there.
"Police have got a curfew at Firth Park and one at Lower Shiregreen so gangs can't hang around there anymore, but there is nothing covering round here. They are causing me problems because they gather here," she said.
Det Insp Helen Tate said: "Three men and two women were arrested. One 17-year-old man has been charged with attempted murder, and the others were arrested on suspicion of assault and public order offences and are now on bail.
"The Sicey is not a pub that has come to our attention for problems of this nature before."
Police are appealing for witnesses to contact DS Matt Flemming on 0114 2964451, or Crimestoppers 0800 555111.
A 17-year-old youth charged with attempted murder was due before Sheffield magistrates today.

Do a Google search, and this is what we find from http://www.sheffieldpub.co.uk/news/archive/ March 2002......

The Sicey in Shiregreen suffered another attack as a number of petrol bombs exploded in its kitchen on Sunday 7th April. This fresh attack comes only weeks after 10 of the pub's windows were smashed.
Luckily a passer-by spotted the blaze and alerted the fire brigade. A source from Attercliffe C.I.D said it was "...a very determined effort to burn down the pub which could have resulted in death..."
Tenants Harry and Lesley Tickwood who only took the pub over in October 2001 have been left devastated by the attack. Their pub is the last in the area as other "trouble" pubs have been forced to close down. Fortunately Harry and Leslie are adamant that they will not let thugs close The Sicey!

Perhaps the Police should be a bit more honest!

Shiregeen ISNT that bad a place to live,like most places it has its good and its bad places,fortunatly i live on Ivy Hall Road which is very quite except for the odd pr*ck who rides up and down on illegal motor scooter.
Anyway regarding the stabbing at The Sicey,there was recently a shooting at The Sicey which was reported in "The Star" as a robbery but i have it on very good authority that it wasnt a robbery it was to intimidate a witness from the stabbing who was in the pub at the time

The reference to the curfews made in the article is causing problems in Ecclesfield now. We now have gangs of up to, I would guess, 50 youths hanging around the shopping centre. It never used to be like that.

all the curfew does is move them around - they'll all be up Fulwood and Ranmoor next :)
