Good to see he has been suitably assigned to old ladies and students protective work. They go down easier with one baton swing apparently.... My hero. That is a great spot! It's him isn't it!

Exactly the same - the only cop with baton already in his hand. Follow the **** - runs in just looking for someone to swing at. Rest of the police - no batons out. But Millwall thumping super-cop - is there baton in hand as usual. Wow A+S must have really told him off eh? How does this creep get away with it every time - 3 videos now - same 'officer' baton in hand looking to wallop someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is football not oh sssh the oppositions taking a kick like rugby . IM NOT CONDONING TROUBLE just put that in capitals so someone doesn’t misquote me. Football is tribal , territorial . We haven’t played them for years and a bit of edge is great for the game . People moan about a lack of atmosphere in modern football and the reason is it’s sanitised. We can’t sing this or that because we might offend someone ffs . Oh no we called them sheep shaggers I’m offended on their behalf . To sum it up , someone swore near me in the second half. The bloke sat next to me shouted . OH no someone swore what’s the complaint number (jokingly ) A voice behind said 2 ******* 7 ******* 3 ****** 4 No nor me. We would be super pissed off if we were given a reduced allocation at an away game so I don't quite get this give them less tickets arguement. 4 hours ago, Bristol Rob said: My favourite thing about that, is that during 'the battle of Parson Street' fans still saw fit to respect the painted yellow line on the platform. NTTDS will be very pleased. 3 hours ago, Spoons said: Great but why did you( police) decide to let out Swansea fans with city fans at full time,? Because once again, if we was at an away game we would be super pissed off if we were held back. I particularly remember an away game at Plymouth a few years back where the gates were charged as we were kept in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s hardly the JFK assassination is it? He wasn't trying to get at anyone, you clearly don't know the incident. People on here gave statements to the Police including dash cam footage of the incident and it went nowhere. No its not the JFK incident obviously, but nevertheless, it got swept under the carpet.. So yes, it was covered up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonBristolian Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 7 hours ago, Stortz said: So true. Like it or not, unseemly scenes massively intensify the atmosphere. And I have two words for the tosser who I've never seen before sat in the seat behind me moaning at people all around to sit down like he was at the theatre. The second one is off. To be fair, I’ve been in that situation before where someone has been desperate for people in front of him to sit down and it turned out the chap couldn’t stand for long periods due to a health condition. To me, one of the best reasons for bringing back safe standing is so people who need/want to sit for 90 minutes can do so and those who want to stand can do so without either affecting the other’s enjoyment. On which note, did anyone else twig that the area where the late arriving Swansea fans were standing first half was right in front of the away fans’ wheelchair users’ section? I would have been bloody annoyed if I was them and had my view blocked for the majority of the first half... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miah Dennehy Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Obviously I wasn't there, but one thing I can say with reasonable confidence (Although this wouldn't apply to some forces like the West Midlands a few years ago) is that when there is trouble at a game, it really isn't the police's fault as some have suggested. Nor is it the fault of the club for giving the away club extra tickets. The blame land squarely on the shoulders of those whose day is enhanced by a bit of a punch up. It really is that simple.

It was brought up on here because the same thug who assaulted a Millwall fan is seen in videos from yesterday. It was a miscarriage of justice if you knew what evidence was presented to the OB over it, which you clearly don't. Your last sentence is clearly the type of thinking said Police Officer uses....

It wasn't safe yesterday for me and my family to leave as per normal at full time so we left at 87 minutes, this would be avoided if Swansea were kept back 10/15 minutes.

Hittung him was OTT considering other officers reactions but I really don’t think it’s the scandal it’s been made into on here.

Can you provide me more details either pm or on here, where it took place, what time, what exactly you saw / heard, description of the officer and I will forward it to be investigated again. I can also check available footage to see if the incident has been caught . I am sorry I didn’t reply immediately last night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
