You could try reading it?

Or at least, read The Guardian article at the bottom, which I saw the other day and made me horrendously angry.

In short, there are plenty within the police who would like nothing more than it to all kick off a well as some of the more moronic fans, and they're not adverse to helping it along its way. Anyone who's been to a few away games will know the feeling...It's not all Police, just as it's not all football fans who get involved in the violence, but it's difficult deny some love it.

It speaks volumes that the majority of the recent 'trouble' talk stems from conversations started on that forum.

Oakleigh, I can only imagine you've not read the thread, as it simply isn't discussing violence or anything that would need to be reported to anyone . It's simply informing fans of their rights in regards to policing at football grounds, and warning that not every member of the Police will be absolutely dedicated to keeping the peace. It's not unlike much of what the Football Supporter's Federation do with regards to Section 60 Policing.

British transport police have a horrendous reputation for being a bunch of scum bags the fact that they are looking at giving them guns is fucking horrendous. 

Ok, very unfair to paint one and  all as scumbags but there is a real element amongst them that does thrive on shall we just call it action.  To be honest you can almost understand that some of these meat heads sign-up, are fully trained and spend most of their day showing old women and people like me where platform 3 is.  Slight touch of action and you can understand why they are prone to overreact or even worse actively encourage or look for trouble.

It all comes from our local police being complete fuckwits in the early part of last season. There was virtually no police presence at our early matches, then someone brought a decent number of hardmen (can't remember who, Aldershot maybe) and there was no-one there to deal with it.

Their response was not the common sense approach of actually researching and predicting away followings, potential trouble, the need for segregation and escorts. No, they just sent half the constabulary down to the next couple of games, against sides who brought about 200 placid fans with them. The police acted like complete dicks; searching, taking names and addresses, roughing up completely innocent home fans who were clearly not wanting to do anything but watch football.

So now some of our fans are keen to know their rights in that respect.
