Victory For Fan Over Section 27 PDF Print E-mail
Friday, 03 July 2009 09:31
Stoke City fan Lyndon Edwards, 38, has been awarded £2,750 in compensation following unlawful police action in Manchester last year. Greater Manchester Police (GMP) used section 27 of the Violent Crime Reduction Act to round up more than 80 Stoke City fans prior to their club’s Premier League tie with Manchester United at Old Trafford on Saturday, November 15, 2008.
The Football Supporters Federation, together with the civil rights organisation Liberty took GMP’s use of section 27 to judicial review.  GMP have conceded that the legislation was never intended to be used on large groups of people.
The Trust supported the "Watching Football Is Not A Crime" campaign because we believed that the issues raised by the Stoke City fans' case affected ALL football supporters. We're delighted that Lyndon's case has been won thanks to the campaign.
Read the article about the case on the FSF's website for more details.
