Disgraceful infringement of freedom of expression.

Makes you mad doesn't it. Union of European Facsist ********s.
Also, I noticed they showed the flare, and away supporters sttanding up in the Liverpool away supporters at OT last week, to show the great atmosphere. When they arent allowed to, because of modern premier league rules.

"...and there were banners with offensive messages aimed at Manchester City, Chelsea, Red Bull Salzburg and Red Bull Leipzig."

What were these banners? Seems more likely they were what prompted the fine.

footballs governing bodies at all levels are pathetic, self serving idiots

Prices like that are unsustainable for most sports or entertainment. I know people are still paying it at the moment but Arsenal have a different fanbase to most clubs (including a lot of people who got rich off the back of a property bubble and dealing in debt!) and it'll end up other clubs copying them....clubs like us who have got mostly a working class fanbase who'll get into the habit of not going every week. Not really much fans can do, we're a captive market.

Why didn't they mention that in the report?

Sounds reasonable to me.

The sooner the grounds are empty the better, it is the only way. The sad thing is the fans know it!

Always said, if enough fans cared enough to organise themselves properly they could have the game on its knees within 6 weeks.
