We only Played them on Saturday as well.

[Beachboys]

That is shocking !

[WackoJackoUK]

Wow unbelievable. We had a run in with them a few years ago before they left the league and they have a few shady characters down there but shooting someone ..... I hope it wasn't football related as it's just a game.

[Butts]

Played them in our first season with Bedfont green, they won the league and we can second, but they could not go up, because of their ground , so we were promoted instead.

Bloody scarey... you never know what is round the corner these days.

I see the alleged attacker rode off towards New Addington.

 

I'm afraid to say that that speaks volumes !

 

Not the nicest of estates with quite a dodgy undercurrent of gang culture.

 

My condolences to the family.

[bomaya]

That's shocking. And I agree with JR about New Addington which is a shame as it used to be a nice place.

[Teflon]

My Condolennces too, really shocking to hear, used to enjoy going to Coney Hall always a good battle against them and never any issues after the game, always left on the pitch.

I can't help thinking that the Roundshaw Estate may be involved somewhere along the line !

 

Not so many years ago that Metropolitan Police Sergeant that lived at Reigate was shot and killed on there at the estate post-office.

[Charlie Farleigh]

JR I don't think Roundshaw had anything to do with the Police officer getting shot, that was in Addington.

[Big J R]

My mistake Charlie F

 

For rhe life of me, I don't know why I typed Roundshaw.

 

It was at the Calley Down sub-post office, off King Henry's Drive, New Addington.
