No not us, the inferior BCFC...

BBC said:
Court papers have been served against a police force amid claims officers breached the human rights of a group of football supporters.

The 10 Bristol City fans say they were detained by West Midlands Police and put back on trains ahead of a game against Birmingham City in 2015.

The case is being backed by the Bristol City Supporters Club and Trust.

West Midlands Police has until 22 February to respond to the claim and said it was "seeking legal advice".

The group was among 51 supporters who were allegedly surrounded by police as they walked to St Andrew's stadium in Birmingham in September 2015.

It is claimed they were publicly accused of being hooligans by an officer with a megaphone, detained for 90 minutes, before being returned to New Street Station and put back on trains to Bristol.

Eight of the 10 were issued with dispersal notices under anti-social behaviour legislation.

All 10 are claiming false imprisonment and a breach of their human rights on the grounds they were deprived of their liberty.

West Midlands Police has until 22 February to accept liability and offer compensation or the case will go to the civil courts.

A spokesman said: "Court proceedings have been served against the force and we are currently seeking legal advice."

I fully support them, the WMP are the biggest organised hooligan group in England, about time someone made a stand against them, complete law unto themselves.

The way they police football fans in Brum is an absolute disgrace, that’s home fans included, if they were to treat the local minority groups the same way they treat the average law abiding football fan there’d be riots on the streets and protests nationwide.

Fully behind this, I'm so glad the 10 people out of the hundred odd that were turned away have taken it to this extreme.

I remember the day well reading about it on the way back, was an absolute disgrace and how it was ever allowed to happen I'll never know.

I've said on here before but we have more trouble with the WMP on our travels to the midlands than we do with any other set of supporters, seems like an ongoing war.

Trouble is these police personal will be non-football fans who class us all in the bracket as "thugs out looking for trouble "

The WMP have always been shocking in our games too, remember them hitting your fans with batons...

Scum. Strangely enough, away at Walsall was the worst I’ve ever witnessed them.

They've had a vendetta against us since Walsall 1988. Unfortunately they've targeting normal law abiding fans ever since. Scum.

Somerset and Avon weren't much better a few year back but since I've found them to be fair, if you don't act like a twat.

Back in 2004 S&A were doing a lot of stop and searches and taking names, annoying as owt.

The Subway Army and WMP work together, as witnessed first hand in 2001. Inside the ground as well, shrugging their shoulders as piss and coins fell on young children in the away end.
