Absolutely WLD, couldn't agree more - my Bro-In-Law's a copper (thankfully escaped to be a Canadian copper nowadays), so I'm very much on their side.

Seems to me that the guilty few need dealing with much more severely than they currently are - and I can't see the logic of the 'Ban Football' Brigade whose solution would punish the innocent majority along with the scumbags.

There's a lot going on inside the game to combat hooliganism, thuggery, racism and the like - and unless you go to matches, you might not be aware of it - but every time some stupid editor gives the thugs the oxygen they desire by printing screaming headlines about their evil-doings, it's another set-back for those who are working to get the game its good name back.
