Fireworks fired at motorists and cyclists on Abbeydale Rd

What is that old saying, There will always be an England. God help us all the way things are going.

Of course it is.

He was targeting one minority group from an area where there are many races and intimating that they are responsible for the ongoing problems.

There are many Asian and European communities in that area.

I thought what he was saying was that if the Roma up in Page Hall had been doing half of what the kids down in Abbeydale/Nether Edge have been doing, they'd have had the riot squad in quick sharp. Because the coppers are not afraid to spotball them, whereas they're worried about the Asian's reactions. Is that what you meant, scrapper?

 

I think sometimes people on here are so defensive and their knee jerk reaction is always the race card. Why? If you don't fully understand, why not ask a follow up question before flinging the accusations around?

Hey guys (and girls!), I just thought that I would sign up in order to share the experiences I have had with these guys. They have now launched five fireworks at me, over the period of over a year. It's a disgrace. I can imagine that one day I'll end up arriving at Maplin (where I work as Store Manager) with a burned uniform.

 

As the holder of an Aeronautics Materials degree, I understand too well the power of fireworks, and their ability to harm, and, indeed, kill.

Well if they are going to enforce it they may actually have to pay the odd visit to the area.

To be fair, they are probably targeting you for your extortionate prices.

If they're too expensive, shop elsewhere. We live in a free market economy, after all. I personally believe (as do our thousands of customers) that we provide reasonable prices at a high quality service.

Translation: We have a niche in the market, and people are forced to pay our prices if Bardwells are closed. Who might I add, have never had a rocket aimed at them

If Bardwells were so great (never heard of it btw), then they would be able to expand and compete on Maplin's level. As it stands, they have failed to show the required nouse to make it in our free market economy.

You work in Sheffield and have never heard of Bardwell? You pass the store every day on your way to work.
