Tailgating at matches to become criminal offence


First time I ever saw it was at Wembley.
Yeah, suppose Wembley is a bit different as it's the entire ground and not just a couple of turnstiles for the away end. Obviously this has come about after the euro final there. Just like I guess it's always been comparatively easy enough to get into the SOL home end if you really wanted to. Or any home ground really.

There will always be younguns from bigger teams that try it, cos they have no chance getting tickets other ways.

And i've deffo seen the smallest amount of it happening at lower levels
 
Apart from Wembley (where stewards/ security were taking back handers and it got out of hand) it doesn't happen especially in the premier league..
That and the fact there are loads of student stewards at Wembley. Either not arsed about stepping in or physically scared to. Disgrace really.

At the Wycombe final bunch of coked up idiotic kids in front of us up and down the stairs with pints pitchside (not allowed itself) the whole game banging on seats. Stewards near us who looked about 20 at a push and 5 stone wet through just stood there.
