    “What bans from attending racing were given to the people arrested on the so-called Ladies day, of which there were more arrested in one day than the 23 matches played at the KC that season?
    Or the Rovers thug captured on film kicking an FC fan on the ground, or the FC munter clobbering someone with her tasteful white stiletto?
    Amazing how the police manage to end up having a city fan banned after a pretty trouble free game yet when Millwall fans rioted and tore up seats, all under the gaze of CCTV cameras and a couple of hundred police officers Humberside Police didn't manage to arrest one.

    Of course a football arrest justifies the continuing overkill at City games.”

    “Hardly a story at all. Nearly 20,000 turn up for an event and one gets arrested.”

    “So this clown is banned from attending towns or cities where the Tigers are playing away matches and is also banned from entering any football grounds across the country.
    A much better sentence would be to force him to attend all away Grimbsy Town matches and keep his eyelids taped to his forehead so as he would not miss any of the exciting action.”

    “Watch this get completely blown out of proportion so the police can try and justify their over the top policing of city games.”
