Hi everyone, I'm a Bristol City fan and was amazed watching your game v Leeds tinight on TV. No, not amazed at the choice of kit, but the high number of Police on duty. This was a league 1 (Div 3 in real terms) game played on a Monday night with crowd segregation, but clearly visible were whole clusters of Police in ALL parts of the ground, not just at the ends. By playing on a midweek night and being on TV, that probably reduced the number of both home & visiting fans through the turnstiles. Add to this the cost of floodlighting for the whole game which would not have been necessary on a Satdee afternoon and then add in the Police charges and despite the TV money, the Latics probably made a loss on this game through no fault of their own. Anyway, rant over, all the best for the remainder of the season!
