Absolute fucking bollocks. 45 years I have been doing aways and some of the indiscriminate shit handed out to innocent football fans from our police force has been truly shocking. At least football fans pay to go to football matches, the police get paid to go, it is their job, and a lot of them are fucking awful at it, always have beenIf i was a cop I'd do exactly the same. Gangs of aggressive posturing chavs baiting you all day what you gonna do ? Come out swinging.
Just read that those arrested are still in custody. Can you imagine going to the game. Getting arrested. Spending 24 hours in jail so far and having to miss work today. Horrendous.

A mate of mine knew a copper who was on duty at Maine Road the day Millwall rioted in the north stand
They were given the green light to crack as many sculls as they could. He said it was one of the best days of his life
So it is true
