Parents warned over foul play

Football matches tainted by foul language and behaviour

Complaints of 'dreadful language' and a man urinating in a hedge at a junior football match have been received by Shillington Parish Council.

Residents from Bury Road, which is close to the Greenfields playing field, voiced their concerns at a recent parish council meeting that obscenities from parents watching games could be heard for some distance in the nearby area.

Notes relating to the parish council meeting in the Shillington newsletter said: "Coupled with the sight of one of the fathers relieving himself publicly in the dividing hedge, this does little to encourage support of more pitches on the new field – particularly when the pavilion was open and available for such calls of nature and is a public order offence.

"With such examples is there any wonder some youths are behaving anti-socially."

Karen Cousins, the clerk to Shillington Parish Council, confirmed that it had received a complaint regarding 'abusive language and urination' at the playing fields.
