Good point:

Would any planning permission be required for new floodlights given Moss Lane's location?

The residents opposite the ground have complained on numerous occasions about the intensity of the floodlights in the past.  If they were to be improved, any application to TBC would need to be notified to those residents.  However, if they are more efficient and do their job properly in that they illuminate the pitch rather than Moss Lane, Hale as a whole, they may be convinced of the benefit 

People who buy houses near a football ground thats been standing for near on 100 years should be given NO consideration, dont buy a f**king house near a stadium and then  complain about floodlights,traffic,parking,noise,superficial changes to the stadium, stupid people.Its like the "moss lane action group" one fella on sandleigh ave that had nothing better to do with his time apart from moan about a footballl club that he'd decided to become neighbours with!!!

I have, before now received a request to turn the Floodlights off as they are keeping the children awake!!

Of course, should we ever leave Moss Lane (heaven forbid) then I trust those neighbours who complain about the seasonal 5 hours a week of noise, parking, floodlights etc won't then complain about the increased noise and traffic that the future residents of Heathcote Avenue and Swindells Gardens would create on a daily basis, not to mention the drop in value of their own properties due to increased amount of housing available.

I cant believe some southern idiot who moved up here because his job demanded it thinks he can move in to our over-priced neighbourhood to improve his social status and then complain because of the floodlights?

If his spoilt, ugly and soulless wife and kids cant sleep at night its because their scared of the suburban 2.4 children nightmare that they live in, not our floodlights. Pathetic, get over yourselves.

And as for the semi-retired T**t who takes it upon himself to replicate norris from corination street by hounding the club with his incessant whinging, why dont you just come and watch alty? You'll then feel part of a community instead of just harrassing one. And you will appreciate the facilities instead of berrating the effect they have on your schedule of perving on the neighbours bored wife who cant sleep at night cos her boring bastard kids are crying again!

Sorry, feel a bit strongly about that one.

Rant over

Key point there is that people who buy houses near the ground are other the moon because there house price is marginally lower than others in the area, due to it being next to a football ground. Happy enough to take the bargain but not anything that goes with it. It makes me laugh at how stupid people are, did the estate agent shut all the curtains when he showed them round? What's that there? Oh it used to be a football ground, it's only used for kids games now and that's only every 3 weeks nothing to worry about really! FFS!!!

I also recall hearing that a local Councillor has promised the residents that having got rid of that night club he'd be sure to get rid of the football club next.......admittedly this was a few years ago but perlease

The lights shine into two of our rooms, we do not complain!!

New lights with shrowds to guide the light would be tremendous and urther brighten the playing surface.

We do need to keep down on the light pollution!!

[Altysmiffy]

If anyone living close to the ground would like to sell me his or her house at a drasticly knocked down price because of the inconvenience of a local football ground then i will put up with the lights & the noise.....


Because I would go to all the matches instead of moaning

[gazwarrington]

Just like those who buy cheaper houses on the flight path and then complain about the noise of low planes.

Its just silly but they seeem to always get their own way.

[altrincham]

If they kick up a fuss lets give them somthing to moan about and get the Golf Road to march around the culprits roads in full voice!

[man in the stand]

Can I add my praise to the board who have managed success on the field and sound financial management clearing the Inland Revenue debt.

Perhaps other conference sides should take note!

True cases:

People who bought into a block of exclusive flats near Prestwick airport then demanded compensation for the noise (they failed)
People who bought houses near churches & then compleined about the ringing of bells - and, astonishingly, got a reduction in the times the bells could be rung
People who bought homes near farms and complain about the noise, smell & muck.

Twerps

[Altyant]

Totally agree with all the above posts.

The annoying things is, is that I believe if there were any issues the club would probably be willing to listen to residents views, however the residents dont seem to reciprocate
