Tyre Slasher Strikes Again!

[The Yonner]

Arrived late for the Hull match on Sunday, after being held up on the M62, so made a snap decision to drop anchor on Woodhouse Lane and leg it to the stadium, rather than spend more time heading for the official car parks - what a mistake!

Later on Sunday I have a flat tyre, which turns out to have a slash in the sidewall.

Four and a half years ago I had the same experience. That time I parked on Prescott Street, and then it was two tyres that got slashed.

I find it hard to believe that the same individual would be still indulging in his chosen pastime after four and a half years - although the fact it was only one tyre this time might suggest a certain maturation has taken place?

Anyway I was wondering if this problem has been experienced by other people - or am I just very unlucky?

Unfortunately, as a travelling fan from outside Wigan, I have another reason to make me think twice about coming to matches, as if there were't enough already.

I parked on the street behind farm foods yonner( walked up the canal)...... no problems for us tyre wise....... there was quite a few cars parked there as well

I am also a travelling Wigan fan, must admit I've been very fortunate so far. I dont use an official club car park and often park up side streets close to the stadium! Not surprised by Hull FC fans though, il never forget Wembley 2013, sat on the coach waiting to leave, Hull fans thought it would appropriate to start throwing glass bottles at the coach (without justification I might add)!

Thanks for the suggestion Firestarter.

Don't think away fans are the cause of this Cheshire warrior. Maybe a crazed Latics fan?

Most likely just a dunderhead with nothing better to do.

Wouldn't trust Hull FC or Latics fans Shame there's no street CCTV!
