Quoted from Mighty_Mariner
If the police were there anyway due to intelligence...why do the club have to pay for them to enter the ground? The police is a government/tax-payer funded public service! Perhaps I'm missing something here but I just don't get it!


BP is private property and the police have to be invited to come in. That’s why police presence in the ground costs clubs money. The same thing applies at places like Freshney Place. Any negligence here looks like it belongs to the club. Too much reliance on CCTV?


“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.”

Hearts, deaths occurred here and abroad simply because crowd control was not managed effectively. Do you think the events yesterday were managed effectively? Do you think we had enough stewards to contain the situation? Do you think a couple of parked transits is effective crowd control? Do you think allowing two sets of " fans" to converge on a public street to bash it out is good crowd control? Do you think as long as no one gets injured or dies as a result of violence in the ground it is acceptable and anyone who thinks otherwise is being a "drama queen"? FFS it takes one punch to kill someone!

It's true that the club could have done better, but can we not turn to criticing the club more than the knob heads who took part.

Sadly there are 'knobheads' who follow every football club, that is a known fact.

The club know that but failed miserably to put measures in place to prevent knobheads being, knobheads.

I walked back to my car behind a young lad (7/8 years of age) and his Dad who was explaining that he wouldn't take him to Lincoln next week because of these idiots.

The club ( rightly) tries to attract young fans with cheap tickets but once in attendance failed miserably to protect them and other law abiding fans. Someone need some to answer for this and not let it be swept under the carpet.

It will be swept under the carpet because I think we all know whose decision it was not to have a police presence in the ground. Vale played up and stormed the gates simply because they saw the stewards weren’t up to the job of maintaining order

Can't help but take issue with that comment. I lead a sad life and have a tiny c0ck but I've never behaved like that.

Crowd trouble never a nice thing.    But out of 5000 + people there was  only a small amount causing the affray. The police were on the scene quickly and there was not much going on  around the streets after the game. Don't let us give it too much publicity and let the powers that be get it sorted..


Really, from my view in the Youngs stand it seemed several minutes before plod turned up in the ground if they did.

My point being whenever there is trouble you never see 'shirts' (I think that's what they call them) people wearing the colours involved.
