    If you flip the statistic to Bans per average attendee - I bet we are top -

    Newcastle 51,000 - just just over 2 bans per 1000 fans.
    Wolves attendance 28,000 so roughly 3 bans per 1000 fans.
    West ham 56,000 fans - 1 ban per thousand fans.
    Millwall - 55 with 12,000 fans 4.5 bans per thousand fans (no suprise there)
    Manchester United 75,000 fans - 2/3rds of a ban per thousand fans - quite the goody two shoes the prawn sandwich munchers
    Liverpool 53,000 - 0.8 bans per thousand fans
    Barnsley 11,000 attendees so rouhly 4 bans per 1000 fans.
    Chelsea 43,000 fans - so one ban per thousand fans
    Bristol Rovers also about 4 with 9,000 fans.


    So in terms of the highest proportion of nasty fan's we're second. after millwall. Something to think about.

    I reckon most are away day morons, no point in looking at home attendances, in my experience there's a huge concentration of f**k wits on away games.

    I don't go away often.
    But over recent years I have noticed that if there's 400 away fans then on the face of it about 300 look and sound like they could cause problems.
    So these figures are no surprise.

    Question is - where are these fans at home games because I don't see many in TARN before a match - especially since Yorkshireman was demolished.

    We’ve been to many an away game and walked into the ground behind a group of hammered fans and thought “I hope we’re not sat near that lot.” At Charlton away a few years ago we were unfortunately in the mixer and the guy in front spent 90 minutes being abusive and following through. Horrendous.

    Behind the headlines above I'd suggest that our club is doing a relatively good job, especially when compared to certain others.

    The number of our 'supporters' arrested over the last three years has been falling (42 in 2014/15, 35 in 2015/16 and 28* in 2016/17) but the number of banning orders has been rising (7 in 2014/15, 13 in 2015/16 and 22 in 2016/17) to the point where we are one of the clubs with the most banning orders per number of arrests.

    The message being that if you are arrested and convicted of a football related offence following BFC, then you'll be banned - which is positive as far as I am concerned and seems to be bearing fruit in the lessening arrest numbers. It contrasts starkly with tomorrow's opponents who have had 129 arrests over the last two years but have only seen fit to ban a paltry 14.

    * - Of the 28 arrested in 2016/17, 15 were at home, 12 away and 1 by the BTP. 3 were for violent disorder, 13 for public disorder, 1 for throwing missiles, 3 for pitch incursion, 5 alcohol offences, 1 for possession of pyrotechnic, 1 for breach of banning order and 1 for criminal damage. (From this I am disappointed to learn that Mike Dean was not arrested for impersonating a referee :D).

    You do realise that the banning orders refer to civil banning orders that are not criminal convictions.

    The plod do not even need much of a reason to issue one, ironically v Leeds one lad got a 3 year ban for making a ****** sign..

    And they get 'paid' for every ban issued.
