Bob Arctor Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Its this time of year when we see sports groups poping up and running sessions in local parks. What gives these groups the right to take over parks and can they be reported to anyone? If someone is running a small football coaching club and there are 10 kids who have paid £3, then that's £30 in the back pocket of the person running the session. So £30 to spend in the pub the following day rather than giving it to the tax man Should the Tax people not be asking questions? Can these groups be cleared off the parks? Down with this sort of thing! Whatever it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bodie Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 What I find offensive during a rigorous training session in my local park are those winos sat on a bench drinking alcohol, disgraceful. Do they pay rent for these benches??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pintor Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Better than seeing them hand over £3 or whatever for drugs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubaidani13 Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 No I won't they are a flipping nuisance. I'm trying to have a quiet drink of booze in my local park So you wind your neck in well lets hope one of the groups that use the park sees you the wino on the park bench and kick you out as an undesirable!!! go to a pub to booze:thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have them horse whipped! What gives them the right to enjoy the local parks facilities? Isn't this what our council tax funds? The £3 charge is probably to boost the clubs funds and fund equipment, not as you seem to think to spend in the pub on Sunday lunchtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biotechpete Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Most councils require permission or licensing of groups using the park I was under the impression that the council actively encourages things like boot camps through Activity Sheffield.

Waldo Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 More power to em! Who do I complain to about families with young children using the park? They just get in the way. They need to clear off my race-track, I mean, pathways in the park... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
