GMP & the FA v City store

[Newlunar]

GMP have no lawful right to stop City from selling those shirts because they do not constitute a public order offence at all.

They have probably asked or advised the club to suspend sales of them until after the game, the club have probably decided to co operate with this request. The club would have been perfectly within their rights to refuse to comply.

Meanwhile, the knight of the realm Slur Alex Ferguson does all he can to get everyone at it unnabated.

I wonder if all the stalls on Busbyworld Way have withdrawn all their T-shirts that are ALL about City. I doubt it.

The Senior echelons of Greater Manchester police have long been in the pocket of Manchester United, why do you think Roy Keane got off with the assault charge?

However, nobody has made anybody do anything.

Went in the City store @ COMS yesterday to acquire a couple of the t-shirts there (local v tourist & Tevez ones) only to be told that both GMP & the FA had ordered all items relating to local rivalry or Tevez to be taken off the shelves & removed from sale !!!

How ridiculous is this getting now ?? These are items of clothing for goodness sake ! Maybe thru should have concentrated more on keeping the scum behind on Tues instead.

30 years of shit we've had to take of those cunts and now its time for them to take a bit back and GMP and the FA step in to ruin our fun, what a bunch of nob heads.

Does that mean GMP will remove all the anti-City tee-shirts etc from the shitty market stalls round the swamp then?

The GMP should concentrate on trying to find the thugs that found it acceptable to target families and OAP's after the game instead of taking merchandise out of the clubs shop

Does that mean United Fans have to take their banner down at the swamp?

You are spot on with this. Answer is no they won't. Everytime I have been there in recent years the stalls are full of anti city t-shirts and stuff. It will be just the same on wednesday and watch you'll see a couple of coppers stood nearby doing absolutely nothing. Absolute joke.

The GMP should focus their energy on trying to actually get their tactics right for once and try and protect the thousands of fans that will get caught up if a few hundred dick heads start to kick off.

Their policing last Tuesday was nothing short of pathetic.

Have the GMP told Primark and Wilkinsons to take their black clothes and bin-bags off the shelves?
