Policing today

[Maybes]

Disgraceful what happened to you Tubes.

From what I have seen and when I spoke to you, you seemed like a right chavy tw@t

[Tubes]

Thank you everyone for the support it really is making me feel a lot better. Knowmatter what goes on at football the coppers are always going to pick people out to use as scapegoats to set an example, which to some extent i could understand as long as they were arresting people that were actually causing trouble. At the end of the day me and my father were in the wrong place at the wrong time and im just glad my dad was there. Imagine me going home and telling him i had been arrested for doing nothing ( rightly so he wouldnt believe me ) so luckily he has been through exactly the same and knows i have done nothing wrong.

My mother didnt see it and is threatening to kick me out my house (which i can understand to the point she is thinking that i wouldnt be in trouble had i done nothing wrong) so now i am in real shit for getting caught in the wrong croud.

Lofty, Joe, Ched, Lisa, Maybes and Bert on Facey just to point out I really appreciate the support from you guys and anyone else in this thread, it just goes to show how bad things are getting football related.

Cheers guys your all top people and will see you at Orient hopefully.

You owe me nothing, chum. I hate to see the why football fans are treated, and would (and have) stick up for anyone wrongly accused of being a hooligan.

[Poakey]

not being funny but if you shutup, sit down all game, watch the match the quietly go home, the police will not bother you.

If you sing outside the ground it causes trouble(sometimes). The atmosphere was always going to be tense today, leicester and milwall both have a repuation therefore policing should be harsh. Normal fans shouldnt be effected by this but if you act like a cock then your asking for trouble.

just my view.

What a fooking KNOB!!!

Show her this thread then?

[Dr The Singh]

Arrogant willy puller. You know who I'm talking about - Daggers, Lisa and Carl.

Town full of muslims,[/b. I believe was a favourite of the Millwall scummers.

Thick bastards, majority of Leicester's ethnics are hindu or polish!!!

[General Smuts]

Glad i missed all of this to be honest, my legs are still in pain so i would've had no chance to run away! On the other end of the spectrum - after a cheeky pint in the 1884 me and Fez ran into half the Leicester squad - Fryatt, Gradel, Powell , and the Bulgarians. Oh and Richard Shaw truly surreal.

And Tubes - fight that ****er till the death, thats utter bullshit and i expierienced something similar when my flatmate got arrested in similar circumstances for resisting arrest - for not showing his student id. How can you be arrested for resisting arrest!

[DanTheFoxBhoy]

They said at the station that it would be on my criminal record, bt on the back of my section 5 fine slip it says that if I pay the money then it will not be kept on record, so ill have to find out when I go to report it.

Anyone knw the best place to go and make the report? Quorn is nearest but dont know if i can do it there.

This has also killed my excitement about away games, its common knowledge you get treated badly at aways but if I get that treatmen at home games itll only get worse, as you say they will notice me now.

Take it to court mate. Bugger paying 80 quid for nothing. Unless they have a video of you belting the crap out of someone you'll get off - doubt the copper even remembers why he knicked you.

[SOCCERROO FOX]

Im so glad that our stewars are pretty cool, even when i accidentally while i was drunk spill beer on a coppers shoes once and the copper just said don't worry about it mate have a good night.

Coppers in Australia are brilliant. Me and my cousin nearly got arrested in Australia but they let us go because we pleaded that we were just "drunken pommies". Everyone likes to do a bit of drunken climbing after a few too many pints, but apparently it's not a good idea to do it on the ANZAC War Memorial in Hyde Park in Sydney

We didn't know what it was

hi guys my first ever post but having read what happened felt the need to tell what happened to me when i got arrested at coventry in february. i was arrested for consistently standing throughout the game taken to cov police station and kept there for 6 hours - by which time the last train home had gone - i was bailed to appear back at cov police station a month later, on answering bail i was told that they would be bailing me again as they were having problems downloading cctv of me standing!!!! in total i was bailed 4 times eventually i ended up in coventry magistrate court and having had my application for legal aid refused i represented myself (also knowing by now that they had no cctv footage). i had to cross examine 5 differnet police officers who had all given statements saying that i had been consistently standing - unfortunately instead of having 3 magistrates sitting on the bench i had 1 district judge who seemed to have made up his mind beforehand needless to say i was found guilty of causing an obstruction and failing to comply with ground regs and they handed me a £300 fine PLUS 120 hours community service!!!!! i am 38 years old and it was my first ever offence how do you think i feel??? i received no ban from any matches but as i work 6 days a week with sat being my only day off i have to do my community service then so cant attend the footy until my hours are done.

i wish you well with your case but make sure you have a solicitor cuz i'm sure i would have been fine if i had one - i like you have a really bad feeling towards 1. the police and 2. the justice system because of how i harshly i've been treated

all the best

Definately make a complaint and also I would contact the club. And I agree you shouldn't accept it if you take it to court it will definately be dropped.

Snap mate

I got arrested for being "Drunk and disorderly in a sports ground"

what kind of crap is that

a lad is not intitled to have a few drinks and have a laugh at the football no more its "illegal"

policing these days is just going to far.

they tried to shove a five year ban on me aswell just for being drunk its stupid

Everyone could argue about the police until the cows come home, but if they weren't at the game yesterday what would of happened?

A fair few people would have been kicked in I'd imagine, then would be complaining about the 'lack of policing'

It's a no win situation really

This is partly true.

But, when they pick people out who have done nothing wrong and just go out to make it known that they are the police, it puts a different spin on it all.

They're there to stop trouble not make some between innocent people.

Yep that justifies someone getting beat up for no reason.

We're not saying the police shouldnt be there, just that they should act like rational human beings.

Is that too much to ask Tommy G?

There's a massive gulf between lack of policing and the over-the-top policing seen on Saturday.

From a police prospective its difficult to deal with. It's easy to point the finger but when you're faced with keeping control (and protecting) a few thousand rowdy football fans then it must be a nitemare.

it's all well and good saying that all police should be rational, but no human beings are rational 100% of the time, add to this the situation of a football atmosphere and it becomes a problem.

If you got kicked in by a Millwall fan outside the ground then you would be straight to the police complaining, but then complain that the policing was too harsh? If the police weren't there then you can definately say there would be more problems than with them there.

The police were always going to be there. So your argument is rather pointless.

It's not really an argument.

Just after reading this thread, which is heavily dominated with people moaning about the police, they should perhaps think that it's not going to be all plain and simple?

No-one on saturday would have been arrested for no reason whatsoever. they must have done something justifying arrest

[The People's Hero]

I got arrested once for being so damn sexy that the police thought I must have been on sex-appeal drugs.

I wasn't though.

I'm like a walking, talking sex appeal drug.

But you can't take me - you've not got the stones.
