Re: FANs not criminals!!!!
its all well and good pointing out ground rules etc but they count for nowt when stewards start throwing punches. Eject people by all means, and no-one is above the law, but it doesn't take 4 people and headlocks to do that. People WILL ALWAYS stand by their friends and family when undue violence is shown.

Funny how we all read it differently, I thought it was a pun with reference to Virginia Wade :D |

Re: FANs not criminals!!!!
yes the threat of jase n danny be banned is something we have to fight after everything jase and su have done for the club we can not just sit back....the display on wed wouldnt of happened without them both jase and danny put in the hrs preparing the display along with other members of su
but this is not just about their ban its about how we fans were treated as a whole the events where i was attacked by a police officer while a steward was allowing me pass should not of happened nor should a police officer refuse to assit a 16yr old lad when he has be kicked by a police horse refusing to even look at his injuries and telling another fan to call 999 he wouldnt the police officers words were"its a horse it can do what it likes" yes the fight to stop the ban is top but it also the way other fans were treated i am sure i was not the only one who was treated unfairly as the title says FANS NOT CRIMINALS |

Jase - good luck, mate. If you need any character-witness type support, you know where we are!
Your Morecambe mates. |
Re: FANs not criminals!!!!
Yonman thanks for clearing it up even managed to answer my own question :) To be honest i don't think it would placate some of the fans.
There are obviously 2 issues that need to be addressed and i have a feeling i may upset 1 or 2 people i apologise in advance 1 The arrests - it may not count for much what Jase and Danny have done for Stanley in the past and yes they have done a fantastic amount but If they are deemed to have broken any laws with regards to entering a football match then they will be punished. Whether that will be a ban or not remains to be seen! The club may not be able to do much yes they can send character references but if Mr Judge on the day is that way out then it might not make any difference and it's all well and good saying 1st offense etc sometimes football laws/rules do not take this into account apparently it seems all football fans are a completely different species to the rest of the human race!! In this day and age unfortunately previous good character does not seem to count for much. I am hoping that bans are not enforced as Jase seems to be the life and soul of the Clayton End :) The Stewards/Police - SOME not all have overacted and each individual that has been affected should do what ever it takes to make sure that it is dealt with in the correct manner Unfortunately what was seen by a few as harmless fun has now seen their actions escalate into the anger of how it was then dealt with by the officials. Arrest - correct if offense commited (and someone did whether it was Danny or not yet needs to be proved in a court of law) You can be sure that in future games that Stanley will no longer allow the throwing of till rolls onto the pitch!!!! |
Re: FANs not criminals!!!!
However laudable and deserved is the support for Jason, I'm not sure how many magistrates spend time on Facebook.
Find out who's actaully defending him in court and let them know you are willing to act as a witness for defence. As to the police, if you have a genuine complaint one, use their channels. Lancashire Police Authority .: Register Views But don't expect much joy. Without shoulder numbers and documentary evidence, you'll not get far. Email individual members of the Police Authority, who are supposed to respresent you, not the Police, and ask them to explain how the behaviour on Wednesday night satisfies the Police's pledge to you and me. http://www.lancashire.police.uk/admi...E%20Poster.pdf But the main thing to remember about this debacle is that throwing till rolls at people on the pitch, if this is what happened, is pretty stupid thing to do. Whoever did it (if at all) has screwed up Jason, not the coppers. |

Having thrown various fans out from various clubs (including some of our own) I can safely say that I never had to grab anyone by the head/neck to get the job done. |

It may (though I think it's a long shot, given the publicity this has already attracted) also persuade the CPS to stop short of a full criminal charge. This is a real 'there but for the grace of God' issue as far as I'm concerned personally. I was once grabbed by five burly coppers in London after watching my 'other' team Spurs win the FA Cup against Forest. They 'said' they'd had a tip-off that someone matching my description was carrying a knife (all bollocks, they just wanted to break up a rather big - but well-behaved group outside a West End pub and throw their weight around a bit). I refused to go with them round the back into an alleyway, where they said they wanted to 'interview' me away from the rest of my mates. I refused but, because I hadn't by that stage had much to drink, was able to do so rationally - explaining politely that they were frightening me and they could do whatever searches they wanted in open view of lots of people, with my complete consent (ie the only thing I was 'resisting' was going with a gang of coppers into an alleyway - I was careful to point out that I wasn't resisting 'arrest' because they didn't have any reason to arrest me until they'd searched me - with which I was fully prepared to co-operate). Had I had a few more - or had they pushed the issue more forcibly, I'd probably have a criminal record by now. Good luck, lads. |
Re: FANs not criminals!!!!
I was stood with the Ultra's and yes someone definatley threw till rolls onto the pitch after the whistle blew and continued to do so especially when Krul was taking his goal kicks. The police then came and walked along the front of the Clayton End possibly as a warning to say look enough's enough someone from the crowd then threw something towards said police. At the time the police did not take action (who would in such a packed and confined area) They waited til end of match and then made the arrest this is when everything escalated.
Up until this point no officials made any movement to remove any of us still chanting merilly away at the end of the game. The arrest is the instigator in all this, then the rush of some to try and find out whats going on hasn't helped, innocent people have then been caught up by over zealous officials |

Which would have called for an extremely 'good-arm'..and the navigational accuracy of an Exocet Missile !. |
Re: FANs not criminals!!!!
I noticed that two policemen were taking photographs with a telephoto lens and a video camera of the Ultras during the game. They may have some incriminating evidence of people throwing missiles (till rolls) during the game, more arrests may follow. (hopefully not)
