ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

Status
Not open for further replies.

Manchester police are monitoring social media for signs of any coachbgatherings, have increased resources, and have warned fans they will disperse any gatherings of fans by the coach entrances - how to police properly in comparison to the LFC police force.

They should check with their counterparts here as theres clearly been an amendment to the law on the offence of lighting flares/smoke bombs in a public place. Apparently, its acceptable to do it here even in the midst of Police Horses and Mounted Officers though perhaps morons of a special persuasion get a special dispensation.

Always. It’s what their club is built on.

Not enough police to deal with it.
 

Load of crap . If Merseyside police told Liverpool that they needed to have more police on duty then they would of and Liverpool would of had to pay the bill . Merseyside police chose to ignore the blatant warnings and Liverpool didn’t give a crap

Where are these extra police coming from then and who’s paying for them?

It's far from acceptable; yet as @Del-boy mentioned, quite simply with the numbers present vs. numbers of police it's nigh on impossible to act.

If the officers present were to go and arrest one of the flare holders, then it would pull at least two off their actual role of protecting the route.

While I'm not saying it's correct, the more sensible option is reviewing CCTV and hopefully they'll be subsequently dealt with - locked up or banned.

The only other option is to go with much larger number of officers, potentially in riot gear, and drag them out, which will be heavily frowned upon.

the club pays for policing. Certain games that are high risk need extra police and stewarding and it’s been that way for years. The derby yesterday is an example with matrix vans still sitting on county road til after 8pm . That’s not a regular thing for every game is it ? Oh and the police love a bit of football overtime so don’t be so naive.
