home office figures

by jonboy29red » 30 Nov 2010 21:24

from the OS:
Reading Football Club's supporters deserve significant praise after the Home Office's 2009-10 football policing figures put Royals fans among the very best behaved in the country.

The club work extremely hard to maintain a safe, friendly atmosphere for supporters, as proven by our recognition as the Football League Family Club of the Year in 2010.

We did not have a single banning order placed on our supporters during the season, and Doncaster were the only other club in the division to be without a banning order.

In addition, only two Reading supporters were arrested at Madejski Stadium in our 29 home games in all competitions - the second best figure in the division.
A total of 434,907 Reading fans came through the turnstiles in our 29 games, so the two arrests represent a miniscule 0.00046% of our attendance.

Just five of our fans were arrested at our 25 away games in all competitions. The majority of our overall arrests were for pitch incursion (3).

So, being passionate means that you have to be so passionate that you get arrested? Brilliant :roll: .

There were some Coventry hoolie kids interviewed for a documentary a months or so ago. Their attitude was "we fight for our club and our fans...."

That, presumably, is the "passion" we're talking about here.

TBF Perhaps they just meant they are active in lobbying the club/council for what the fans want - a seemingly vacant position at our club!

As this was in the context of the Football Banning orders these kids had just been given ... no.
