I doubt the police will plant anything, they had their chance when asked to provide evidence of knives, I expected them to come out with something "found" in a bush close to the ground.

Totally agree that FYP deserve a lot of credit.

It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.

Well done FYP and others for not letting this go. It shows the arrogance of the police they probably thought Palace fans are knuckle draggers who can't read. This could have been killed off with a simple apology. All the officer in charge had to do (the day after) was say I was misinformed and it would have died a death. The more the police drag this out the worse it gets. C'mon plod don't you know it's always the cover up that does for the criminal.

One more point

Why don't FYP invite Dominic Hyfield and other media to go to the December match with them? If this were possible I would happily contribute to the cost of tickets. Alternatively, as away tickets are so much in demandand may be sold out , would a regular away traveller give up their ticket for the media to go?

Or maybe be they’ll go anyway, it just remains to be seen if the Sussex Plod have the foresight to invite them as guests or misfire on your useful suggestion MP.

So I manage a Workshop which provides a safe learning environment for blokes struggling with PTSD and other mental health issues. Being a Palace fan isn't listed yet.

Fifield will almost certainly be covering the game anyway for the Guardian, but probably from the press box.

Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time.

What makes you think football is a requirement for police corruption?
