    Thank you SW for your comments & thanks for the PMs sent everybody.
    Safety was the issue particularly our younger ones 'herded' into concourse with their parents and the fact our fans were let through without any security checks bearing in mind the terror threats around London - Football fans are members of the public too and this was the point being forwarded to the Met !
    Leeds United actively encourage U12 kids to attend matches and supporter groups wish for various Police authorities to take this on board when 'herding' large groups of travelling fans to & from stadiums,drawn batons,snapping dogs & holding bays are not acceptable and this point has been comunicated to all concerned particularly concerns over personal public security which Leeds supporters on that day were denied.

    Thank you for your comments WTF11.
    Great post and you cease to amaze me with your opinions on all matters Leeds United and the Universe from your perch in gentrified Hampshire.

    As a member of Supportergroups we have to look after all age groups within a vast array of huge support even the 'naughty' ones who can find themselves in trouble.So yes your ethos of "family" is apt - just not sure were within the family you'd be 'tho ?
    The wise old Uncle ?
    Or the dreaded Mother in law !
