Fan Behaviour

Rising

Alert Team
No doubt you’ve read the report of Billy Sharp of Sheffield United being attacked and hurt by a Notts Forest fan.
The PFA want a full review of stadium security before the start of next season because the instances of fan encroachment and violence have been escalating for some time now.
It wouldn’t surprise me if we had to go back to the bad old days of netting round the pitch.

Terribly sad especially as we are in the middle of seeing the successful return of safe standing areas in stadiums.

A reflection of the times since 2020 when the ties appear to have been loosened on what some people thi k is acceptable to say or do and so many people seem so angry about…….everything.

I think they have to act.
If they dither, something even more serious could happen (God forbid).
 
More problems last night after Vera apparently in an altercation with a fan after the Everton comeback and Swindon Town players being physically and verbally abused after their defeat in the L2 play off second leg :shake:

It looks like the Germans were causing the trouble?
Apparently there were problems with the home leg and the German fans were banned from buying tickets..... but some turned up anyway a d the Napoli 'Ultras' decided it was time for a rumble.

They should have started with the attack on the City Coach, where no-one was locked up and seemingly condoned by the Club
