Respectfully disagree Wolfy. It's entirely their own fault, and they have been allowed to run roughshod over "the rules" for too long.
And the rules aren't even that extensive.
Rule 1: no flares
Rule 2: don't be dicks
Rule 3: see rules 1&2

They didn't have to punch on with opposition fans, wreck seats and throw flares. If they kept their hardcore element in check, they wouldn't be in this predicament.
They could have been passionate and well organised, without all that other bollocks they carry on with.
But they thought they knew better, and were too busy posting photos and updates on ultrastifo for internetz points.
So their cops have had enough.

Thankfully we seem to have a much improved relationship with Newy LAC
