I know,i just wanted to hear it from someone else. I'm having paranoid thoughts that i've been targeted. Surely they wouldn't target my car as it's only a 14 year old small Suzuki, so nothing flash that creates jealousy.
Where i parked up is about a 10 minute walk from the ground and in a 'nice area'. The Burton fans wouldn't need to go near that area. The sticker only says 'Accrington Stanley Redvolution and it's only about 5 inches long and 2 wide. The bloke who i was with and who's house i parked outside said there's never anything like this happened around there before in the 12 years he's lived there, to his knowledge.
I'm hoping that pun was not intentional!
I haven't driven to an away game for years but i remember the bad old days of football hooliganism when cars were attacked when those responsible looked at the car's tax disc to identify where it'd been taxed which usually indicted where the owner came from. I've seen cars with smashed windows,slashed tyres even cars that've been set on fire,but i don't think my case was football related. I certainly won't be parking in that 'nice area' again. Even though they say lightening doesn't strike twice in the same place i won't be chancing it.
I think i'll phone the police tomorrow to ask if there were any other reports of such incidents that day. If there were i'll feel a bit better knowing it wasn't a targeted attack. The funny thing is i usually check my tyres before setting off to make sure i don't have a flat or someone has let them down for 'fun'. Its just an old habit i have. Yesterday i didn't check them before setting off.
I'd parked outside a friend's house who went to the match with me. He gets on with his neighbours,so it won't be them. The road's fairly car free as well,with it being a mainly retired/pensioner area. I'd say every time i've been there there's been about 2 cars for about 10-15 houses.
