Spanish police

Even at the police station where all was calm I was met with a police officer and his rifle,
 
The police were a set of wankers last night from going into the ground to coming out of it, we were not allowed to use the toilets or anything at the end just shunted around like animals
 
Getting into the ground was a disgrace. Police way too fucking quick to wade in for no reason at all, the number of little turnstile things totally inadequate for the number of supporters and all of it compounded by all the frankly pointless "security" checks. Passports checked, tickets checked twice, two body searches. The whole thing felt like a disaster waiting to happen. Not good enough.

Shows the inconsistency of it all.
Took my passport with me like a good little sheep as we were herded from one security check to another. Two body searches, two! What the fuck did they think I'd managed to get hold of and secrete within the 50m walk surrounded by police?
However no issues getting in, unlike some others, but mainly becuase after nearly being crushed to death in Amsterdam we get to the ground early.
 
The pre match security was a joke. No wristbands even checked so God knows why we needed them. Being herded forward 50 yards at a time then held back all the time. Got in for kick off but that's by arriving at 8. Lots of city fans outside when the game started

Ever since we qualified for European games over the last five seasons or so I've thought about going to one or two places but in the end the gratuitous violence inflicted by 'law and order operatives' has persuaded me that I am better off not going. Too many of the Spanish police just use foreign fans as riot practice and if there is no riot they will manufacture one! If you could collect yer ticket from our Stadium and then go along to the match, and then drift off the way you do at The Etihad, I'd be interested, but this 'cattle rounding' and 'sheep herding' is something Uefa should be addressing!

There was only trouble in Seville because the Spanish press reported it was City fans leathering their lot in Manchester when it was fans of Slask Wroclaw. It was fine otherwise. We took taxis to the ground after a good drinking session and I didn't hear of anything in or around the match itself. Don't let fear of trouble put you off going for what's usually a damn good trip.
 
No problems going in. Had ticket checked three times and searched twice. Didn't seem bothered about wristbands and no-one asked for ID. Don't know why we all had to go out down one exit when there was another one available.
Does anyone know what happened to the bloke who fell backwards down some steps and knocked himself out?

You mean pushed backwards... He got up but wasn't in a good way ps the female steward/security grabbing this lad and then loads of others later was the one causing every bit of the trouble. She was a fucking disgrace
