It's to do with how the police can treat football supporters and incidents involving football supporters differently and how they can pursue a fairly serious charge for a very minor infringement when it suits them, an afftay charge for pushing someone with the tips of your fingers, jail for throwing a smoke bomb, theyre not a made up example, they happened.
I don’t get this argument. Should football supporters never talk to police? Women, minorities and teenagers all have similar problems, just straight middle aged white men should help the police now? Disengagement isn’t the answer, engagement along with strong action if/when things happen is the answer. If football fans are being mistreated raise it as an issue, but hindering police investigations is only going to embed that attitude further not help it.
Nice whataboutery.
You clearly don't understand the meaning of the phrase. My post was a reply to a statement you made.
Yet, you've clearly only looked at this one way. Football fans don't get treated any differently.
Police release images of 15 people wanted over Colston statue toppling
A criminal damage investigation has been launchedwww.standard.co.uk
Have them all hanged imo
Where did I say supporters shouldnt talk to the police?
But they need to be very wary. I've seen people jailed and lose their livelihoods afte4 getting caught up in very minor incidents that the police wouldn't have looked at twice if they'd happened in the Burgess.
This is essentially a minor issue but it's still on going months later.
There's been far worse disturbances than this since in pubs around Cov which arent been investigated with this sort of rigor.
I thought this entire thread was about the Police wanting to talk to people and people saying they shouldn’t because the police hate football supporters.
That’s all I’m saying. These people should help the police. If when they do they are unfairly charged then I’ll be right there with you complaining about it.
Help the police with what? What are they actually trying to establish here? If they want witnesses to a crime committed by somebody else to come forward, putting mugshots in the paper is a funny way of going about it.
If thats what you think fair enough I don't agree.
My last words on it will be this, when my son and his mate got mugged at knife point a few years a go I really wish they pursued it as doggedly as this Broadgate incident because they basically did fuck all.
And the BLM think is similar to be honest, high profile so it gets more attention. It's not the severity of the crime more how much it's in the public eye as most football related incidents are.
Again. It’s not a funny way of going about it, it’s standard practice. See my post earlier. It doesn’t imply guilt, I posted several examples of calls to talk to specific witnesses.

All you are saying? You've changed what you are saying about 5 times already.
List them

Isn’t that basically how they have been trying to find people for over 100 years?
No according to David that’s a bollocks line. He can’t tell you why though. Probably something in his waters.

Guess it comes down to nobody wanting to be a ‘snake’

Actually it comes down to Shmeeegal lying about what I said.
Witty
chris?
Why, aren’t there enough police in Warwickshire?Yes of course this is modern policing. I have no doubt if a curtain twitcher in Kenilworth sees next door invite 7 people to their house the whole of the WM police force will descend on them and bring along a TV crew
