Kids’ football games cancelled after Travellers camp on pitches in Aberdeen

From the Evening Post

A COMMUNITY football coach in Aberdeen today slammed the actions of Travellers, claiming they are making youngsters’ lives a “misery”.


About 25 caravans are occupying the Aulton seven-a-side football pitches in Seaton, Aberdeen.

Their arrival has sparked outrage among football teams in Aberdeen after their games were cancelled at the weekend.

One boss claimed about 400 youngsters couldn’t participate in matches scheduled for the weekend.

Daniel Middler, 30, coach of Lewis United Under-12s who play their home games at Aulton, today said the actions of the group were “disgraceful”.

The group is currently occupying 10 football pitches, next to Seaton Primary School in Aberdeen.
