More cops than away fans

This has been a gripe of mine for years,even when we played Truro a few years back ,you would have thought ISiS where about to come charging down Church Lane.The Pompey game this year was ridiculous,full body armour,shields the lot.Still standing around football grounds and watching soppy prats glue themselves to motorways is certainly easier than catching burglars and drug dealers.5

Last minute call by the police commander to bring in reserves.3 -

So you had all the Charlton fans squashed on half a road. Tried walking through to empty left with my kid and got shouted at to go back.The thing that doesn’t make no sense is if you segregate that road all the way to the end, everyone has to cross at the end of the road anyway.
Was some bizarre stewarding at the back of the East Stand at half time as well.0 -
There are some naive views about football violence nowadays. Most teams (including us) have a risk element and yesterday Doncasters decided to visit us. Obviously the Police were aware of this and acted accordingly.
Imagine if the 50 or so Donny 'risk' had turned up at the Oak?7 -

At one point it seemed as though he was being allowed to do whatever he wanted. Wandered right over to the east stand swearing and giving hand gestures completely on his own and isolated but nobody did a thing to stop him.
Instead we had 7 or 8 stewards pile in to throw out one bloke in the east that was giving him some back, whilst fully clothed I hasten to add.
It was almost as if our stewards had no idea how to deal with a pissed up northerner, and it was far easier to throw out one of ours sat in his seat than a big fella wandering about looking for grief.15 -
Giving it the biggun against all the notorious East Stand hooligans was entertaining, but the rotund fella clearly had, erm, 'issues', as well as a rather unhealthy BMI...0

I didn't see any of his antics until he was being removed by the stewards!
I heard all the chants of "you fat bastard" from the Covered End, but had no idea who they were talking about1 - Sponsored links:

He was clearly pissed, took his shirt off threw it towards the pitch, was giving coffee bean hand gestures to the East Stand, was the Donny crowds choirmaster, mooned before and during the penalty, then got hoofed out, despite trying to get on the pitch!
One of Donny's finest no doubt!!
ME clocked him early doors and then was there as he was led out! What a TWAT he was!0 -
Can you imagine being the unlucky sod squashed next to/into him for the entire journey back to Donny?3

I counted 260

Donny high risk ??? Really0
-
well the way he attempted to get on the pitch, he certainly wasn't agile for a fat bloke! They should have let him carry on and we could have timed how long it took him to run to the covered end, probably would need a calendar though.3

Noted that the police turn out in force when it comes to Pompey, Sheffield W and Donny. Yet last time we played Millwall they actually held the lot of us back together on Floyd Road - only the second time in my Charlton supporting life that I felt a tad uneasy in the environs of The Valley. The first was when some Spurs fans decided to throw a few bricks at the FA Cup replay back in the 80s. I know the Chelsea match in the late 70s when we thrashed them was more than tasty but I was away on a school trip and missed that one.0

I was at that Spurs game.
In the East Stand.
Some random fella scooped me up as the Spurs fans came at us.
The decision to hold back home fans against Millwall was when I realised all the work that had previously gone into policing football fairly had gone up in smoke.
Thanks Theresa May, you fecking eejit.0 - Sponsored links:

The fat bloke wasn't a relative of Thomas, surely?1

The wendies rivalry was reignited at the FA cup game a few years back at Hillsborough, even made it onto one of those Danny fake cockney Dyer type shows
We have history with both, but the Donny one is a new one on me other than a reaction to the play off result on their part3 -

Very few teams in this league will bring a large enough away following (or risk element) to require the amount of police seen on Saturday. Probably be 10 times total, compared to every week in the Championship. There was probably only one van's worth of OB for the visits of Cheltenham and Accrington, for example0
