The sound of sighs and tutting can be overwhelming at times.

Of those 22, how many moved in before the stadium was built?

If you don't want noise then don't buy a property next door to a football stadium.Simple

On the Central line, we spent millions stabilising the embankment between Chigwell and Roding Valley to get rid of a temporary speed restriction (of 25 years duration) so we could run the new trains at full speed. Then the home owners put us through years of litigation because they claimed it was too noisy. Eventually they lost and several moved out.

Another hurdle to be overcome in the quest to make the Gaughan Group Stadium “ a fortress “! 😆😆🫤

When I played cricket new occupiers of bungalow next to ground tried to get us banned as odd 6 would land in their garden,,Club had only been there 40 years, bloody nimbys We had that this year down in Sevenoaks. The club has been there for 80/90 years or something mad like that. A single solitary house has been built next to it, almost the bottom left hand corner of the ground. The club put netting up 20 foot high approx and after a 6 went over and above the netting, it was a huge 6, hit the roof, bounced down, hit the conservatory and the women owner went absolutely ape s***. Lots of words were had, the game was stopped for about 20 mins whilst their captain tried to placate her. Why build a house next to a cricket ground and not expect to be hit now and again. Some people are mental.

Frankly I'm not surprised. When the Orient Ultras are in full flow and joined by the West Stand Warriors and the East Stand Firm, Brisbane Road is a cauldron of chaos and a coliseum of carnage

Once worked for a company with a warehouse on a massive amount of land. They sold chunks of their land for housing. Once the houses were built the new residents complained to the council about noise from the warehouse. The council supported their complaint and imposed time restrictions. Those restrictions ultimately led to the site not being practical and closed.
The point being in this case it didn’t matter that the warehouse operation existed before the houses were built and people moving in. All down to complaints about noise level.
Funny old world.

I can't see this coming to anything, a handful of complaints compared to the thousands that live in close proximity should be taken into account. If they keep complaining the club should threaten to give them season tickets, that should quieten them down.

Seriously, it's an absurd complaint. The football ground has been there ninety years.

If they keep complaining the club should threaten to give them season tickets, that should quieten them down. The risk is the snowball effect. People who normally wouldn’t go to the bother may well jump on the bandwagon. But I agree, what realistically can the council do? Can’t see tnem closing the ground. Maybe a bit of compensation is what is being sought! That wouldn’t surprise me. The increased number of evening games won’t help. Saturday afternoon noise in Leyton, so what. But working people coming home and having their rest disrupted I can see hacking people off. Living close to ground don’t make them fans, just people with jobs and families who object to an increasingly frequent event. So the ground was there first, but not the ever increasing number of midweek evening games. Maybe they have a point. I suspect many residents were there before all this frequent evening game nonsense started!

It's apparently not about crowds of noisy supporters but functions when the club let out their facilities.

Remembering we moved to Brisbane road in 1937,before that was Leyton amateurs and before that it was a recreational field. Possibly a covenant exists. But the flats were built before the current events snowball,the leaseholders of flats can get us for that and no doubt will. We need to be a freeholder of our own land for the first time in our history. Where are these investors coming from to move out?
