Maybe everyone's turned over a new leaf and only go to watch the game these days, can't be anything to do with good policing can it ....... Surely?
The police were coming right up the aisle next to me in E1. I didn't see exactly what happened but the reaction from the stewards and the pigs afterwards was nothing short of a disgrace. The funniest thing was seeing one or two go flying when we scored and everybody was going mental Seriously though, they're a bunch of arseholes and something needs to be done. I saw a bloke being apprehended by three cops and a fourth was filming the event on a camera. They then had the bloke grabbed around the head and were using a lot more force than might be considered 'reasonable'. Oh, and surprise, surprise - the camera's disappeared by then. What utter ****s.
When I used to go to away games (I don't really have a problem at home games) I used to have a laptop with me to use on the train. Not wearing colours either it was amazing the way the police would treat me one way until I said I wanted their numbers to give to my editor for when we complained about them causing my report to be late. The train tickets to Dunfermline rather than Hull helped as well.
I sit in that corner....the stewards were thick as ****, if I had celebrated like that in the Kop at Wednesday I would have got my head kicked in! I don't mind away fans in the home ends TBH as long as they don't celebrate like those ****s! It was a 20 metre walk to the away end, kick them over there.
