My friend was arrested after the game. He's 17 and looks younger than that. As the police started pushing fans away from the Swansea fans, he was sat on a seat. The police didn't even tell him to get up or move, they just grabbed him and dragged him away. Got taken to a station. He looked petrified and completely shocked. He did absolutely nothing to get arrested. Didn't goad the copper or disrespect him at all.
One or 2 of the other coppers looked a bit shocked by the force used.

I have an attitude of if you act like an idiot and get arrested then you deserve it. But I can't explain this. Unless they wanted to make an example of him as there were a few around who were taking the mick. Just hope that's the case so he can avoid a ban.
If the police do take it further, then there will be stadium cctv to back him up.
Johnny, I don't know anything yet, but I'll let you know. Other than that, the policing seemed ok to me!
