who got stuck in the middle of all the fighting then, outside of the exit gates at the side of that burger van at the bottom of the hill and in the car park where the buses were, when the police came after about 15 mins and forced us onto the buses i asked well shouted where the f**k were they 15 mins before and the bobby replyed blame wolves for making it a police free match dont it just make you laugh</p>
Its a joke, they should at least just put a few police around the ground just in case anything was to happen,
well i was there mate it kicked of inside ground wi that ball boy n then outside near burger van then in car park
dunt make sense to me i had to make sure an old fella and some young kids got back ok my point being thats what the police are for doesnt matter who is playing there should be police at every game it only takes one idot to start it all
lets be reyt tho lads we had to stick up 4 our selfs yesterday we didnt get a kick in and did barnsley proud
got to agree with that how do we didnt take any cr*p of them we didnt go looking for it but when it came i bet they wished they had'nt
does anyone know if young matt rose got home ok he got left behind because the police wouldnt wait for him to get back on the bus so he got left behind
Amazing considering what happened there last week! WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS v BRISTOL CITY Saturday 3rd November 2007 - KO 3:00 PM COCA-COLA CHAMPIONSHIP MOLINEUX A large early arrival by City supporters in Wolverhampton Town Centre resulted in a number being escorted by Police to the stadium. During the match there were a number of minor incidents involving both Wolves and City supporters which were dealt with by stewards and the police. After the match, with all supporters exiting together, a group of Wolves ‘supporters’ engaged in disorder with City supporters as they were waiting to be escorted back to the coaches and railway station. Although no arrests were made at the time, the police were required to use force to keep the two groups apart.
What does make me laugh... </p> ....is that if this was a thread about racist name-calling it would be ten times longer by now and bursting at the seams with moral outrage. Apparently kicking someone's head in is ok with the wise and worthy of this board.</p>
22.231 people at a 'sporting event' and .......... .......... no Police, how can that happen? It's only a matter of time before somebody is seriously injured or worse at these so called 'low risk' football matches, that aren't policed. I asked a police woman why they weren't at the match or in the surrounding areas afterwards, she said it was deemed a 'low risk' game based on the fact that there was no trouble last season ....... absolute madness. Is this about the Football Clubs refusing to pay for the Police, or the Police giving priority to other 'jobs'? Makes you laugh really when every home game we have South Yorkshire's finest on every street corner, riot vans, dog vans, horses etc., even when there's hardly any away fans!!
Are we or have we got a bit of a reputation Seems like every time we go away there is a mass brawl Every home match there are police out in force and stood on every corner
We can't have a reputation outside of Barnsley ........ ......... cos places like Southampton and Wolverhampton wouldn't deem the games 'low risk' if we had, however, South Yorkshire Police must think we have, cos every home game is policed to the same level as Celtic v Rangers!!
Its to do with thw wigan and cardiff games the other year. Bit of barmy and up goes the budget to deal with absolutley nothing. Majority of the games at Oakwell are now over policed costing the club £1000's. The Wigan board have started to protest at OTT policing costs. It will only be a matter of time at Oakwell.
