Details of the ticketing allocations for Villa v Blues matches can be confirmed.The away allocation for each game will be 2,100 - a five per cent increase on last season in recognition of the behaviour of both sets of supporters.This decision has been taken after consultation between West Midlands Police and the safety teams of both clubs.The derby fixtures have already been put back to the Sunday - Blues v Villa on Sunday October 29 at 12noon and Villa v Blues on Sunday February 11 at 12noon.
And yet Strathclyde Police can handle 8,000 Celtic fans at Ibrox and vice versa. If our police are too incompetent to handle large away contingents, maybe they should be sent North of the border to find out how to do it.
Using a game where this happened probably isn't the best example
The Noses last time were loitering in a disused pub. 50-60 of them if you were curious as to why you were held under the railway bridge for so long.
