My Mrs is from Madrid and the police are known to be pretty brutal! At recent demos they have been filmed beating innocent men and women with their batons. Politically they are a mess and the right wing government seem to treat the general normal public like utter shit. I mean you can personally face a 10,000 fine for attending demos and protests now in Spain, they are slowly eroding all basic rights. And it's these people who ultimately allow the police to do what they want.
There are also three types of police in Spain and the ones that police football are the local police, basically the lowest ones. There's a joke that anyone who fails schools goes into the local police.
It's a shame because Madrid is a fantastic city and the general Spanish people are awesome.
Let's see if our new head of Security takes it further.
Not that It will do any good, but it would be nice to know he's on our side.
I was at that bar when the Charlton chairman got battered and vowed not to go again
But as you do, went again, you hope thin
Strange, never heard this from anyone over there (just got back) be interested to know if your in laws could provide further
information on this, where/when.
Not sure what that's got to do with these shithouse Spanish pigs?city fans were fighting with each other in playa major
Yeah just sore and bruised now. She's ok with a few bruises.Serious mate, that's awful! Hope you're okay and more importantly your girlfriend is too.

So awesome they vote for a right wing government that are eroding all basic rights?
It's ironic when we have our own fans prepared to give up our freedoms so easily too, wanting the introduction of the ticket collection, subjected wristbands and herding to various places.Not all of them mate, that's why they have a hung parliament at the moment! Every country can become blinded by conservative politics when an economy is in deep recession. Look at the idiots we voted in!

There's always oneIt's nothing personal, as in to call these men "scum" is pointless as it's the lack of communication skills and tolerance levels that is the problem. Can't blame the trigger happy guardia here, just the way in which they are trained.
They're just doing a job, and are told what to do themselves.... So do as you're told and don't fuck about.
There is no reason to attack without imminent danger, but luckily it didn't escalate into a full blown riot.
Travelled all over Spain, watched city/England and Malaga CF plenty of times and never had any problems with Police.
What a joke. As if they would give a fuck. If the the club was serious they would put up the money for those who suffered unprovoked attacks to take legal action against these bastards. But don't expect a positive outcome the authorities in Madrid still refuse to prosecute individuals suspected of human right abuses during the Franco era.
Your right there,the club won't give a fuck about them blues who got a tanning off them spanish shithouses.Don't be so fucking ridiculous.

No they won't, he's right, the club won't give a fuck,why would they?I'm sure the club are bothered and will investigate. Expecting them to fund legal expenses to sue the police is ludicrous.
