Kids playing football



  BMW 330D
What do you do when you see kids playing football near your car? I saw some the other day and was fuming but my girlfriend and her mum made me feel like a grumpy old man. Was p***** off when i saw this the next day.

I do exactly what had been done to me when I was out playing football in the street...

Nothing.
 
Nothing you can do really.

Kids will play football and you cant really do anything about it, except move your car...

Pisses me off though when you hear the sound of a leather size 5 hitting the side of your car!

Not a lot you can do. Last time it back fired for me as next doors ball came haring through my rents fence and knocked the bbq over. I picked the ball up and kicked it back and it hit their 9 year old in the face.

Either move the car or tell them try not to hit it, I was the same when I was a kid and there's nothing worse than someone telling you you can't play here blah blah blah

You were a lad once. I'm sure you used to kick a ball around.

Don't be such a grump.

Annoying though that when i went out to my car and they had to stop they are huffing and puffing as tho they have to pay 150 quid every 6 months as foootball tax. Dont care if it makes me look grumpy i got a bollockin for it when i was a kid, plus these kids dont help them self dressin like run dmc and having a bad attitude.

Ace tht, did the dad kick off?
 
I usually tell them to f**k off - I never played in the street when I was a kid - I played on a pitch or playground

Last time I came home and they were kicking a ball about outside my house I drove over the ball in the 306 and burst it

I tried to ignore them for months and months but then they started knocking on the door and running off every 5 minutes. Lost my rag.

Hate kids.

I had a ball fall from great height & leave a crator in my bonnet on my first clio .... that was gutting! :(

Mine is the only car parked on the street usually cause the houses all have double drives but we have 3 cars. They never seem to go play down the bottom of the cul-de-sac, they always play near the top, next to my car! As long as they don't tw*t it at the car on purpose or dent it I'm not too bothered, it's a mess anyway.

I just ask if they'd mind moving down the street a bit or just be careful not to hit it, kids round here are alright though :).
 
I have two cars on my drive , my 182 and a escort cabby , the thing is they never manage to hit the cabby , just the 182 :mad: although it's not on purpose it's frigging annoying, the only comfort ive got is revenge, when the little gits get there own cars im gonna get a basketball or one of them medicine balls(steel toecaps ftw) and get a few lads round for a game of footy :D little t***s the kids on the street where i live....

Pisses me off badly. Spent hours cleaning the Integra one day, then kids decided to play football near it. Championship White + muddy football. Not good.

We're surrounded by fields and they play football on the street WTF.

Count yourself lucky, a guy on our street used to like to play cricket on the street up until a few years ago!

The fact his house backs onto the cricket field took the piss too.

Get a grip, it's a tiny mud splatter from a football?

Fair enough if they were booting at your car with intent you'd have right to moan but I doubt that was the case.
 
It's not tiny mud splatter as you say , a wet football(casey) will and does have loads of little stones etc stuck on it , i had a brand new megane scenic about 5 years ago a black one, by the time i got rid of it there was a football shaped series of scratches on the boot and loads of other minor one's all over the doors wings etc, all caused by wet football's, ok they was easy to polish out but it's not the point is it?...

I have a collection of footballs! If one goes near my house, garden or car, they never see it again! There is a playground and 5 a side pitch 100 yards away!

Depending on how good your footy skills are, and how much you care about potentially looking a bit paedo-y, next time they are playing, doing something outside, and when the balls comes over, do a few keepy ups, then give them the ball back. Depending what they are alike, they might think you are a decent enough bloke and not an old moaning fuddy-duddy. Then politely ask if they dont mind beong careful around your car.

Might work, if not, kids are kids, and am sure it was an accident.

Balls damage paintwork. All you lot saying "its only a ball", would you let anyone kick a ball at your car?! If you would, then you must not value your car at all. Balls scratch paint. Yes it can be posished out with some t-cut, but thats work for the owner of the car and money for the t-cut. I think footballs in the street should be banned tbh. I have a driveway and the balls still blood hit my car!! :mad:

Boils my piss when I see kids doing this near my car.
If they must insist on playing such a sh*t sport then why not play it in the park or on a football pitch?
