No, your eyes don’t deceive you, this actually happened. Forgive us for blowing our own trumpets, but it’s not as if the police are going to do it for us on this occasion

Last week saw an almost unprecedented apology from one of the country’s top policemen to a group of football supporters. Ian Hopkins, Assistant Chief Constable of Greater Manchester Police (GMP), attended a Fans Forum to personally apologise for the treatment of fans by his officers.
For more on this, see the full story: ##URL REMOVED##/news/police-say-sorry-to-fans.php

The Football Supporters Federation stands up for fans across the country, and it’s good to see that our work is beginning to pay off. We campaigned successfully against the misuse of Section 27 legislation last season, we’ve been working with Sunderland fans in an ongoing investigation into police brutality by Northumbria Police this season, as well as helping fans in individual cases week-in, week-out.

The FSF is there for when the sh!t hits the fan, but we’re far more than that – find out more about getting involved and join for free (and get yourself a couple of freebies) at ##URL REMOVED##/join.php

I think this situation of putting fans as a group is not unheard of , i was talking to a Bristol city fan you went to Millwall a couple of seasons ago,fans on coaches were put on them and all other fans were put on a train out of Millwall ,then the ones who had driven had to catch a train back again to get there car/cars, and the police would not listen an said you just have to travel by train to Millwall in future.
So its not an uncommon practice.
beware when going there!
