City fans rushed by Spanish Police

Just seen a few tweets from Natalie Pike out in Madrid:

"Just watched spanish police batter city fans. A big group of about 100 of us outside a bar opposite the stadium and they tore in battons up"

"No one doing any harm at all. Very scary stuff. So out of order. @MCFC"

"Been going football 20 years never seen anything like it. On my life city fans doing nothing but singing and having fun"

"Women, kids, teenagers, all treated like scum. So out of order. Am so upset."

Hope everyone involved is alright and that it wasn't too bad, especially in light of all the Hillsborough reports this week!


What is her twitter name? There's loads of Natalie Pikes and I would like to follow her ;)
 
They recruited new police officers no one had seen before.

It seems police the world over are the same when it comes to football fans, wankers

Nlo, we were not treated like that in Gelsenkirchen against Schalke. Police were suited and booted and removed their helmets to put a human face on it. You knew that as a statement of 'you all behave and we'll stay like this, step out of line and it's helmets on and batons out'. Excellent and efficient policing and organisation of transporting the away fans back to the train station was top class.
 
Indeed the Shalke police were hard as nails but human and were great with us. Took us to a bar rather than the fanzone and were smoking/chatting to us even with the pineapple incident on the coach to the ground.
 
Hope considering it's the age of the smartphone a couple of passers by caught this on camera. Absolute wankers.
