Dad fumes and claims neighbour 'tells off son for playing in garden'

An Edinburgh dad claims his neighbour of 25 years has confiscated his 11-year-old son's football as she attempts to stop him from playing the national game. EdinburghLive reports Lionel Wilson, 61, went online to look for possible solutions after claiming his neighbour told off his son Nathan for having a knock about in his own private back garden.

The dad says he would like to let football-mad Hibs fan Nathan play outside in peace without being confronted by neighbours. He explained that Nathan isn't the best at football, but absolutely loves the sport and he does not want to stop him practising.

It is not the first time the dad-of-four has had issues with the couple who live next door. His other three sons had similar problems when they were growing up, the locksmith even claiming he was warned about the neighbours when he bought the Grange house.
