I read some of my uncle's war letters recently and in one he reminisced about  an fa cup quarter final between town and sheff utd. He commented on the amount of drink and the trouble between fans. That was in the 1930s but 80 years later we don't seem to have moved on

What a very strange and poorly written statement.

Seems the club has taken to the moral high ground and seem hell bent in antagonising the police.

IMO the previous comments about the lack of preventative measures by the police has some credit but the bottom line is these people are not football fans they are hooligans and due to their behaviour they should be treated as roughly as they treat one another

Nothing strange about that statement....the club making it quite clear that it was absolutely nothing to do with them...
No trouble in or immediately outside the ground as the club is run perfectly.........
Its everyone elses fault in a nutshell......

I think it best that I don't type what I'm thinking about that statement.

All a bit pathetic really, especially in this day and age and not what the club needed when they're trying to push forward the new stadium.

The complaints about the policing do hold some weight though. As much as the mindless scumbags shouldn't do it, how did it even get to the point it did in the first place?

Cocktail of disasters fans arriving early pubs open not enough police. It was  widely known a big away following would be there . Cleethorpes is almost a second home for Yorkshire in the summer.

Good point made by the club though regarding the section 35 notices, maybe the police could of given them the option of straight to the ground or back on the train, Lincolnshire police did this one year when town fans turned up on mass early one year.

Does anyone actually proofread these statements before releasing them.
