Pubs Closing Early Last Weekend - Willy Collins Funeral

[Runningman 148]

Some of you may remember a section of the Collins family living on Meadowhead Avenue.

The local Police work load increased somewhat by residents reporting botched and over priced building work.

Consumer Standards also became involved.

A young lad living in the house never attended school, he was caught shop lifting locally.

The wider Collins family have had a chequered history in Sheffield and have made use of many of our local services!

Some of the pubs would no doubt have closed by their own accord, regardless of any police suggestions etc. They just don't want them in their pubs, historically they take over, serve themselves and refuse to pay.

 

Despite the rules on limited numbers at funerals, how can the police realistically stop the travellers from attending/ With the numbers involved attending the event, theres nothing really the police can do to stop them coming. Even If they start arresting them then it triggers them to cause more trouble everywhere, and there aren't enough cops to deal with that, or police cells to put them in. Even if some got arrested, it wouldn't achieve anything as the rest of the travellers would carry on attending the event.

They came through Swallownest about 10 with the coffin on a tractor unit followed by about 20 cars as they hung out of the window blowing car horns.
