    If they have applied s27, then I guess you cant argue about not leaving the area its a lawful request. But I would like to know what power they used to confiscate the ticket, as as far as I was aware that specific act didnt allow for that.

    Hard done by by asking to leave in the first place as that is literally just banter and can not even be construed as homophobia. Asked a gay mate what he thought and he said that the song was pretty funny. It's not homophobic at all and it is a joke that they are trying to say it is.

    On the other hand, by not adhering to a section 27 you are asking for trouble.

    Did you get charged with anything then? Was it worth spending 10hours in the pokey for?

    What was the food like? Did you meet Charles Bronson?

    Oh FFS! It's "banter" between you and some mates in a pub, it might even be "banter" between two opposing groups of fans in a stadium. It ain't "banter" when you're just shouting out random crap at passers by in the middle of the street - that's just "being a loudmouthed dickhead".

    If I never hear the word "banter" again it'll be too bloody soon.

    I have a friend who is a lifelong Brighton fan and straight. We talked about this subject of "homophobic" chanting and he said that fans only started getting offended when they moved to the Amex. He reckons they picked up a lot of plastic fans who are trying to change their club, a lot of people used to like Brighton as they could take the joke and give it back (responding with chants of "you're too ugly to be gay"), he thinks it's ruining the reputation of them as Brighton fans and making them overly appear to overly sensitive when in reality the bulk of the support have heard it all before.

    No police power, the club would have delegated the right to the plod. I took this extract from CAFC's ground regs but I'm sure they are all much the same.

    1 Notwithstanding possession of any ticket the Club, any police officer or authorised steward may refuse entry to (or eject from) the Ground any person:

    1.1 that fails (or in the Club's reasonable opinion is likely to fail) to comply with these Ground Regulations or any reasonable instruction issued by a police officer or authorised steward; and/or

    1.2 whose presence within the Ground is, or could (in the Club's reasonable opinion), constitute a source of danger, nuisance or annoyance to any other person.

    As stated by others, I think you were a little naive to do what you did after the plod advised you to leave town. Then again, there are many worse crimes out there which people seem to ridiculously get away with for whatever reason.

    In the eyes of the high horse/leftie brigade on here you'll be bombarded with legislation talk and talked down to, but you're not the first and won't be the last mate.

    Oh well done sir. You got "high horse", "lefty brigade", AND "talked down to" in one easy to understand sentence. Total bollocks of course, but what the hell.

    Hmmm - could this apply to Sordell, Church or Thuram-Ulien, then? ;-)

    No, Croydon. I don't think you understand what I was saying.
