When I was a kid i used to visit Sheffield on school trips. Tonight i decided to take my nephew to a match, it was his first game and i thought it would be better than going on my own. We got there around 4pm and went to a little food stand that had very limited indoor seating, along with a big sign near the door that said, 'BEWARE OF SEAGULLS'.
Many people stayed indoors to avoid the aggressive seagulls, however, some families decided it was too crowded and tried their luck sitting outside instead. My nephew and I stood in line near an occupied outdoor table where a dad and little boy were eating lunch. The kid put his sandwich in his mouth, but suddenly, a seagull landed on the table. He grabbed the sandwich and yanked it out! The kid was crying, and I honestly think I would've been, too. I felt so bad for the kid, but I couldn't help but think it was hilarious that I literally just witnessed a seagull stealing food straight from someone's mouth.

In Brighton they’ll nick ice creams off people then fight over the molten slop on the pavement afterwards

Should see the state of them in St Ives Cornwall. Massive and will take what they want.

And they’re the size of small chickens.

Got mugged for a burger by a couple of them in Newquay, hate the bastards

Very clever but aggressive animals. Used to have lots of them where I lived. One of them once came at one of my kids. I started to go for them as they divebombed us. They soon stopped. But when walking with a mate they would go for him and leave me alone. He would cower from them as one cut his head open once.

Nothing but flying rats.

I mean it's working for them right?
They are successful and fearless, you have to admire that a bit.

One good thing about armaggedon is they'll probably become a food source.
Let's see how clever they are then!

I think when Armageddon comes we're more likely to be the food source.

As long as its not seagulls eating us I'm OK with that

When Armageddon comes religions across the globe will enthuse and then disappear into thin air!
No offence intended.
Well probably settle for that once we've reached full factory farmed status!

Australian magpies are also rather aggressive. I once got swooped while on a bike ride and ended up having to wear a helmet with cable ties poking from it in order to deter them.
They don't do it for food, just for fun.

Sounds like my kind of avian hooligan.

Sure it wasn't in their nesting territory? Lots of birds can get very aggressive when anything gets near their nest.

23 secs that goalie took to boot the ball out of his hands

Do magpies nest on footpaths? Or motorways? Or pedestrianised shopping centres?

Bikes in those areas make me very irritated.

@robbiethemole I assume you pooed on my post because you disapprove of such time wasting and inaction by referees, not because of the post itself?

Perhaps a new stat could be published. GKRTA (s). Goal Keeper Release Time Average (in seconds).. Retrospective red card for anyone scoring over 9 in one game, yellow card for over 6. 3 yellows results in an automatic 2 match ban.

While we are at it, anyone lying on the floor injured within a yard of the touchline must be moved off the pitch for treatment. Refusal = yellow card. Goal keeper goes down injured, any coaching to players on same team while GK receiving “ treatment “ results in players being coached get yellow cards and the coaches involved should be red carded.

All that should shut the managers of the “ top six”up in terms of complaining that their players are playing too much football.

NB distance edited.

Sorry to quibble, but shouldn't that be "...anyone lying on the floor injured within a yard of the touchline...", otherwise, what was the point of Brexit?

He meant an English metre not an EU metre.

Not now Trump has put bigger tariffs on everybody else's metre. I'd say we've had a proper result!

Like having a government who prefers to review lots of things rather than make changes delivering any significant benefit.
