Stoke policing verdict

The report is back from my complaint to Staffordshire Police, and I'm so angry I'm literally shaking.

They held us back but didn't communicate it. When everyone filled the concourse, the police opened the doors to prevent a crush, then immediately radioed to their colleagues that we'd "burst through". It never ****ing stops, does it?

They've found the organisation "unacceptable" but let off the officer who sprayed the pepper spray.

A PDF of the report is now attached further down the thread.

This still isn't over.

It says file deleted?
 
I can remember when Pink Ponce on here was wrongfully given an exclusion order (or something similar ?) He got legal help/advice from someone. A football fans group of some kind. Can anyone remember this/the contact person ?
 
There will be more to come I imagine. It was disgraceful. I never heard any announcements about staying back.
 
The investigator mentions how rare it is for fans to be kept back at Stoke but we were kept back when we played them in 2017 in similar intimidating circumstances
 
It was well organised beforehand by Staffordshire Police.
The Unit`s were well armed and tooled up.
Sounds like a "test" to evaluate the effect on crowd control using offensive weapons against innocent people.
Not surprised at all.
 
No surprise a F***ing white wash and they wonder why football fans have utter contempt for the police All this kicked off based on intelligence from Cleveland police it was high risk, was it really. If fans can't get justice then a protest this season should be made by the traveling fans with the stoke police ridiculed for their cowardice and in particular PC Pava
 
I was there that day with my 13 year old son. The behaviour of the police after the game was absolutely scandalous and without any justification or provocation whatever.
But, "nothing to see here"...utterly typical.
