Disorder at footy games
|
The number of arrests has increased and there is a "worrying level of disorder" at football games, says the UK's Football Policing Unit lead.
A UKFPU report, released on Thursday, shows 999 arrests were made between 1 July and 31 December 2022, a 10% increase on the same period last year.
There were also 343 new football banning orders issued, a 230% increase.
"Disorder at football has sadly not gone away," Chief Constable Mark Roberts said.
At 1,550 matches there were 661 reported incidents, the second highest figure on record, but it was a 19% decrease from the 2021-22 season.

I wonder if a single instance out of those involved someone actually throwing a punch?

Nearly 30 million people attend football games every season. The amount of arrests is negligible.

The number of cardiac arrests and 'medical emergencies' has definitely increased at football matches and everywhere else.
This doesn't need investigating or any action though

I'm right next to the away fans, which is always fun, but the European games have generally been feisty. Been a few arrests n stuff.

It's always made me laugh, we get pulled if we say the Y word or Rent Boys but when those lot call us pikey's nothing is said? surely that is of equal relevance? Not that I give a fuck but you can't have one rule for one and not the others.....

The number of banning orders always increases in World Cup years.
In an effort to stop the average Stone Island wearing mong from going to games.

I would say disorder is more prevalent at lower and non league games these says. Its all pretty sanitised at the top table where you can even text in to grass up the bloke sat next to you for saying a rude word. I guess cup games have more potential with larger away allocations and a lot more tickets up for grabs generally. I did however see a fella jump on the tracks at Stratford to get at some Brentford fans who were goading him last season luckily they got the power turned off just in time.
