Or have a couple of old bill stood at each end like every other club does for a derby fixture
Thats the problem GMP won't just provide a couple of PC's it used to be a minimum of a Sergent and 7 or thats what it used to be
I worry about the lack of stewards as well all very good getting them from other clubs for a couple of games
but there is at least 8-10 high profile games it won't take long for the volunteers to get pissed off if you
keep bringing in hired help and they still get nothing.
I can see why it'd be annoying. To be honest though, paying a hefty police bill is just one of those things you have to do to protect spectators safety. you shouldn't have to of course, but you do. It should be mentioned that this is only necessary where clubs bring 400+ fans so we have plenty of profit to pay for the police.
And on a spate note, it protects the stewards too. I don't want anyone taking a smack in the face for me, leave it to the old bill. These knobs turn up, see no police and know they can act up. See some police and they just have to mutter under their breath and watch the game. We're not talking about lining up a load of police horses in front of them.
Amazed I even managed 4 lines on that actually, it's such a no brainer that's it's barely even worth talking about.
