Is that right that they have been turning uo via recorded delivery?
If so, a mate of mine thinks he might have one - although he hasn't been to pick it up yet, which is bloody ridiculous if true because he's only been tugged once - for telling a copper to "f*ck off" outside the Valley before a game when he was a bit ... er ... tipsy. He wasn't charged or anything, and it's hardly the crime of the century but from what i've heard this letter is pretty threatening.
If it were me I'd make a point of calling them to find out why they were sending me such a letter, making sure they were aware that I was taping the conversation and, depending on what they said, back up my views in writing. The problem is that when you're on a list such as this - rightly or wrongly - it's very difficult to get yourself off it.
Seems to me like an absolutely disgraceful threat against peoples basic civil liberties.

I'm sure i'll be okay As I have just got myself fitted out for a police uniform from a fancy dress outlet.
I'll be bringing a decent size helmet and truncheon to keep you all in line.
SIDDARN AND SHUT UP.0 -
apparently it IS one of those letters and he's just not going to go now because he doesn't want/need the aggro. he's not even a charlton fan, he just comes along with us for the banter/booze.
it's f*cking outrageous!0 -
all cause he swore at a copper when he'd had a drink ?
unbelievable0 -
nanny state, what a load of cobblers Off it.0

Two and two obviously equals 22 in this case.
One blemish - not violence related - and no charges. At that rate I'm a bit gutted I never got one, in respect of my caution for weeing down a drain in an alleyway in Newcastle after we'd been playing at Sunderland about 15 years ago. Apparently that one went down as "unacceptable behaviour" - whatever that means - and was flagged up as football related because when the copper asked what I was doing in Newcastle I (stupidly) told him I'd been to watch Charlton.
I'm normally a defender of the old bill, but not when they act like this.0 -
surprised you didnt get one off it. We got filmed outside highbury last year when we were swapping cash for tickets.
spotted as a well known ticket tout.0 -
They should sort out all the other problems around the f#@king place first,
Kids killing each other and old ladies getting mugged and drugs being sold in broad daylight
and they waste money on this

The lack of a scouse accent proved his innocence.0 -

But football violence was a huge problem, so they are succeeding in keeping a lid on that and hopefully changing people's habits. It certainly sounds like they have gone over the top in terms of the people they are warning, but that's all it is a warning. If it makes for a safer day out then I am not complaining.[cite]Posted By: eeladdick[/cite]They should sort out all the other problems around the f#@king place first0 -

Thanks Smudge.
Sounds like the OB are bricking it, and quite rightly so considering Tango has whipped the Nigels into a frenzy!!
I'll be having a few beers at Ldn Bridge and then keeping my gob shut as we come through Stripeyland (even though I have no previous) as I think the OB will be a little "trigger happy" on Sat.0 -

I have got ????? to check with his brother-in-law who retired from the footbally violence unit last month - his opinion is that it is bogus
any letters sent out should have letter heading from both police and football club relating to and contact tel no. also they quote the wrong act it should be Spectator Act 1989 not football disorder act---- Forwarded Message
