Travellers on football pitch scupper weekend fixtures

An Exeter youth football club chairman whose playing fields have been invaded by travellers has spoken of the young players' disappointment after all the weekend's matches were cancelled as a result.


The travellers sawed through a padlock to get on to Stoke Hill AFC's pitches at Hamlin Lane on Friday morning.

The city council is understood to be obtaining a court order to move them on.
