barrybear1690 0 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Was emailed this by a timmy from work, cant say i believe him as apparantly it will be on Crimewatch tomorrow but this was the email: POLICE today revealed a "rogues' gallery" of dozens of football hooligans who ran riot in Manchester during last year's Uefa Cup Final between Rangers and Zenit St Petersburg. Greater Manchester Police have identified 49 people they want to speak to in connection with the "shameful violence" that injured 30 police officers and left shops and bars vandalised and looted. The officer leading the investigation said one of his constables could easily have been killed, such was the ferocity with which he was attacked. • Picture gallery: The fans who police want to speak to The force will make an appeal on Crimewatch tonight, broadcasting images of the 49 and show CCTV and YouTube footage of the mayhem. Links to the gallery of images on the force website will also be highlighted on social networking sites, while Rangers will publicise the appeal in the club's match programme against Dundee United this Saturday. Det Supt Geoff Wessell said PC John Goodwin was knocked unconscious and suffered swelling to his brain after being repeatedly punched and kicked. Det Supt Wessell said he hoped the appeal would result in prosecutions for a number of incidents, including serious assault, criminal damage and looting. He said: "The footage of the attack on PC Goodwin is like watching bees around a honeypot. He was repeatedly punched and kicked in a horrendous attack. If they ripped off his helmet he would have died." About 150,000 Rangers fans travelled to Manchester city centre for the match last May. While the vast majority were well behaved, a small but significant minority of "main players", aged 18 to 25, are believed to be responsible for the disorder. Widespread trouble flared after a big screen in the largest fan zone failed to show the game. The resulting violence saw groups of supporters clashing with police, with officers suffering dislocated shoulders, broken fingers, and bruising. In the ensuing chaos, individuals were even seen pulling others who had been arrested out of the back of police vans. Since then, a team from Greater Manchester Police has spent six days a week scrutinising 4,500 hours of video footage frame by frame sourced from CCTV, YouTube, camera phones and television companies, as well as more than 800 still images, highlighting those suspected of being involved. As well as using facial recognition software, the force showed footage to almost 1,200 Scottish police officers in an attempt to positively identify people. The images show supporters, some barechested, chasing and fighting police, throwing missiles at police vans, and running through city centre streets. Det Supt Wessell said he hoped positive identification of the 49 worst offenders would lead to other arrests, pointing out that "several hundred" were involved in criminal behaviour. He said the force has already made several positive identifications, but would not divulge how many. "These people are not genuine fans, they are thugs." Big-screen failure led to trouble THE scale of the violence surrounding last year's Uefa Cup final led to several reviews of crowd management and policing. Manchester City Council commissioned a report that found 99 per cent of Rangers fans had no involvement whatsoever in the antisocial behaviour in the city centre, with many rival fans and neutrals gathering together to celebrate the occasion. The local authority attributed the disorder to a "number of hundreds" of Rangers fans, mainly in the Piccadilly Gardens area of the city, one of three designated "fan zones" for those supporters without match tickets. Fighting and looting in the afternoon escalated into assaults on police and stewards, after a big screen failed to relay proceedings inside the City of Manchester stadium. The council said the sheer weight of numbers of supported far exceeded the amount it had planned for. As a result, toilet facilities were overrun, and Rangers fans were seen to openly urinate in public. Greater Manchester Police was the subject of dozens of complaints, with allegations that its officers were unprepared for the trouble and had insufficient numbers of vehicles to deal with a large-scale disorder. ..................................... Hope it's not true as i was there & drunk. I never started any trouble but a mate of mine got skelpt by a polis and i stood up for him. It was totaly unprovoked and uncalled for but i now have brown trousers that i'm on whatever video they are talking about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Manticore* 1,893 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 why dont they show a video showing lack of toliets, bins, overcrowding in the fanzones. piss poor arrangement and setting up of the fanzones etc I remember commenting on the day how dangerously overcrowded Piccadilly was. I'm no expert, but surely their was potential there for a crush. You had about 25-30,000 people packed and fenced into an area smaller than George Square. Not to mention about 20 toilets servicing them, and no bins. My thoughts exactly, I was there in the afternoon, it was dangerously overcrowded then. The emptiest bit was the bar,,,, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianBacon 2,088 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I fully expect to see the faces of the children molested under the Celtic Boys Club regime adorned on their big screens before their next home game. Fair is fair. Wot?? You mean they're gonna' show photos of Alan Brass-till, Big Shirley Aitken, Paul McSidewayspass and Charlie Nickerless (to name a few) on the big screens at the Paedo-dome?? Wow!

Get this T*** cunt off our board! His other two posts were: 1 -No way we could attract a player like this. Linked with Real Madrid last year, more importantly apart from our fianancial worries the management team seem to have a real issue with talented players as they seem to not work hard enough can't roll up their sleeves when required and so on. 2 - I can't understand all the hype about our european run, lets face it all the teams in that group including us were and are all shite!
