Really? I'm pretty sure the Shalford Cricket Club will have complained almost immediately. What I don't understand is what the process is to get rid of them and how long it should take. Surely there must be a law against living on public land? Aren't they at the very least trespassing and that is easily enforceable?
trespass to land is a civil issue, not a criminal act.
no criminal act = no sense of urgency
Other clubs never came into my thoughts once I knew Arsenal wanted to sign me.
