Roughly translated it says the club has the right to make a complete @rse of things by arranging a fixture they know is likely to attract trouble and it is up to the police to organise themselves properly and get the club out of the sh!t at no expense and embarrassment to the club. “If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.” ― John Stuart Mill, On Liberty."

We've had crowds four or five times bigger than this over the years with no trouble at all.

And going by previous statements on here, to me, it looks to have been written by JF and proofread by flipping nobody. Really?  It looks like the work of his son or some other 11 year old IF YOU PLAY FOR THE BADGE ON THE FRONT OF YOUR SHIRT THEY WILL REMEMBER THE NAME ON THE BACK OF IT You can change your wife, your house, your car, but you can never change your team. Chairmen come and go, boards come and go, but the fans remain. They are the one true constant Eddie Thompson OBE

Why do we have to settle for scapegoating the police because they should know it is going to happen. How about we solely blame the hooligans who engage in such activities.

I repeat only my opinion but I don't think Saturday was an accident I think someone somewhere wanted to gather video evidence and stop the Season for certain parties before it began.Job done on that score.
