I agree I wasn't there and haven't seen the video. I still don't believe that having gone to the trouble of sending officers overseas that they would stitch up innocent bystanders that were simply defending themselves. Maybe I am just naive but I happen to truth the police in most circumstances...

They were given notice on 27th June, next excuse?

OK so you don't enter a plea but they didn't contest it. I would have done if innocent

Not patronising at all. I am 29 but realise that £3k is a lot of money to most people. I know it sounds like I am condemning people but I can't see why anyone would not contest the charges if they were just acting in self defence. I wasn't there so I don't know but I would put forward a...

So they were not filmed throwing chairs and confronting Russian fans and the undercover police as described in n the article? I don't buy this 'defending themselves' excuse as if I found myself being charged at by a mob of hooligans I would be off faster than Usain Bolt. I can understand that...
