Did anyone get offered compensation that didn't get in ie petrol or train costs repaid ? really think they'll do a lot better than that.
If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities. |

There was incorrect information from West Sussex Police and this is deeply embarrassing for them.One suspects they will deal with this internally. But there were other issues which were raised, like numerous ticketless fans, pyrotechnics, flares etc etc so one shouldn't assume that our fans were totally blameless on the night. One suspects nothing of the f***ing sort. They have peddled their lies, snuck out a quiet apology after the dust had settled and will now carry on behaving in the same outrageous way as if nothing had happened. I'm pretty sure the fans who were kettled and missed the game were totally blameless. Why should they get punished because of six people who committed arrestable offences? Five of whom BTW turned out to be weed. Why should they miss matches on the pretext that the police made up a pack of lies about knuckledusters and knives? Proof that Sussex Police won't deal with this internally or otherwise is given by today's news about the ticket allocation for the FA Cup match and its scheduling. This is a cadre that covered up one of its greatest outrages and was only outed after 27 years of hard work, determination and expense by the families of nearly 100 football fans that they killed. Why you trust people like that to "deal with it internally" confuses me completely.

Yeah, they have done, Pierre. Very commendable and definitely deserve something in return for their hard work.

I'm amazed that this police chief gets away with this s***e. "We confiscated knuckle dusters." "No, I never said that. It was someone else." "Oh, er, OK, it'll delete my tweet. Are you happy now?"
It's completely unprofessional. He's not even a good liar. How can anyone so incompetent be a chief inspector? What must the people below him be like?

Are you suggesting we should turn a blind eye to the police brazenly lying about Palace fans? A steward on the night told me that the door was left open by a steward going for a fag as the game had started.

As you will see at the start of this thread...i was told similar by the police after the game...it still doesn't absolve those trying to force their way in...but then who's to say they didnt have tickets ...it could've been that they simply didnt want to be searched as there was a long queue. It simply comes down to a shambles between Brighton and Sussex Police...blaming each other for the mess and those that didnt go swallowing what was reported verbatim rather than taking on board various personal accounts from those of us that went and were there.
