  1. We've had them most nights for the last week or so here in Hackenthorpe. It seems we have some new morons on Dyke Vale Avenue who had a bonfire and fireworks a couple of weeks ago, up to 11pm, and are at it again tonight. Our dog is terrified and we have another 2 weeks of this most likely. It's called Bonfire Night, not Bonfire Month!
  2. If (a) it was never about him and (b) he hasn't been telling the whole truth, then perhaps he shouldn't be allowing this to happen? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-47474347
  3. It's clear that the South Yorkshire Police failed to do their jobs properly, and then lied to cover up their incompetency. Even though it was 27 years ago, those people should now be held accountable for their actions However, the idea that the fans outside the ground had no influence on what happened is questionable in my opinion. For anyone who went to games back in the 70s and 80s they most likely saw fans who turned up without tickets, some drunk, some sober, who then tried to sneak/force their way into the ground. It was part and parcel of the game back then, especially for the bigger and more successful teams where tickets were harder to come by. I saw this with my own eyes on numerous occasions. Look at the 1986 FA Cup final for example: http://www.gettyimages.co.uk/detail/video/ticketless-teenage-football-fan-desperate-to-see-match-news-footage/1B26058_0009 That was Liverpool v Everton but this behaviour was, in my experience, commonplace in that era amongst other teams. Evidence gathered in the original Taylor Report showed that Liverpool fans regularly turned up to games without tickets, but as I say this was not exclusive to them by any means, lots of teams' fans did the same thing. Reports from locals in Hillsborough on the day of the disaster also make for interesting reading It's also not behaviour that stopped in 1989 either: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/2314568/Liverpool-fans-stole-final-tickets.html So the whitewash of Question 7 doesn't sit easy at all: "Was there probably any behaviour on the part of football supporters which probably caused or contributed to the dangerous situation at the Leppings Lane turnstiles? Jury’s answer: No" However, justice has been done for those who lost loved ones in this awful disaster and that's the main thing to come out of this, despite reservations about what really happened outside the ground #JFT96
  4. I've always found a combination of anti-virus (such as AVG or Avast) and anti-malware such as Super Antispyware or Malwarebytes to be the best option. The free versions of the latter don't run in the background, so you have to update and run them manually but in my experience they have found and removed items that my anti-virus have missed I also use something called AdwCleaner which does a pretty quick scan of some of the more common places that these nasties will hide and removes them, usually on reboot. Again, that has detected numerous items that my anti-virus has failed to locate
  5. I can see Leicester City winning at Old Trafford at the weekend so Chelsea's influence may prove to be irrelevant. Go on you Foxes!
  6. Hi guys I've played local league football for the last 20 years but have recently suffered from back problems. I've decided against going back to local league football after a bit of a nightmare 12 months, but would be interested in something like this if anyone could PM the details? Thanks!
  7. Some interesting yet controversial comments in there! One or two I'd have to agree with to be fair...
  8. We've gone from sunshine to snow and back to sunshine again in S12, quite the afternoon!
