Sit Down, Shut Up; Are Football Supporters Discriminated Against?

[FSF]

The Football Supporters’ Federation has assembled an expert panel for a free event for all football supporters next week in London.

 

'Sit Down, Shut Up; Are Football Supporters Discriminated Against?' is a Question Time-style discussion, involving key figures from the world of football journalism, civil liberties, the police and the legal profession, and is your chance for you to have your say about the way the game is run, and share experiences with other football supporters.

 

The event is to be held at Brick Lane's Vibe Bar at 7pm on Thursday, 4th March. Registration is free, and all those who come along will get themselves a free pint (or soft drink) on arrival.

 

The Times' Football Editor Tony Evans is onboard to chair the event, along with Observer columnist and civil liberties campaigner Henry Porter, and representation from the Crown Prosecution Service's national lead on football, Nick Hawkins. They are joined by James Welsh who is the Legal Director of Liberty, Roger Evans, a former match commander at Highbury and current Superintendent of the Met Police, and Spiked online's sports columnist Duleep Allirajah.
