Is 8 regarded as multiple like?

 

[toxic tracksuit]

I bet 8 arrests out of 60,000 drunk people on a Saturday is a world record low

I bet one was the Sunderland lad in the anti Saudi gear who was refused entry.

Was thinking the same

8 out of 48,000 is unbelievablely small tbf. Especially when the home team are beaten 3-0 and have the piss taken out of them with the home end away end, the photo etc

If only 10 were arrested at a SJP derby the local press would be wanking themselves daft in praise for the home support and not describing it as “multiple” which whilst technically true is a misleading headline. But when they lose 3-0 there’s mass disorder and horse punching

Anti Saudi gear?

I saw somone lifted due to holding a red smoke cannister around the time the team coaches arrived. Cops sought another but i shouted to the holder to drop it and walk. I was half way up a gate at the time. Th lad avoided being liften by about 5 seconds

 

[herra soul mob]

The spokesman said the event otherwise passed largely without incident .

Would make Goebbels blush.

Why would they be lifted for that? It was outside of the Stadium so surely wouldn't be covered by those regulations.

I saw one go off near the Colliery Tavern, also in a crowd of people. They weren't lifted and plenty of coppers were there.

Was a bloke in the east stand watched full
Match with a panto horses head on

Nobody arrested for violence or football related offences at Wear Tyne derby just isn't as good a headline though.

Oh no he didn’t

 

[Mantobar]

The vast majority of idiots trying to cause trouble weren't even at the match

 

[CBA with this]

Oh no he didn’t

Oh yes he did. And for some reason or other he was fairly heavily told off by some older bloke at the end - tbh the horses head was taken by others in good spirit etc, plenty of photos taken - perhaps the old fella was a closet mag!!!

I know the kid lifted for the red smokie.

f***ing ridiculous but the arseholes had to justify their presence somehow

What’s the punishment for this kind of thing outside of a stadium? Arrested and released later without charge or will he be charged and progress down a legal and banning order route
