It was a real pleasure taking part in the below.
Hopefully it shares an insight into the Policing of games in the UK.
The World Cup journey might start for England tonight…but we’ll be back to Football stadiums over here before we know it! ⚽️

Yesterday was a sad day.
Smithy will be missed by everyone that ever met him or worked with him. I had that pleasure for a few years.
Always smiling, always with a story to tell and always a joke being made!
“One for the road” mate!
Great travelling numbers of 1032 at a freezing cold Cambridge tonight.
Good point earned on the pitch but sadly 1 supporter arrested from the stands.

A Colchester United supporter was yesterday issued with a 5yr Football Banning Order.
This followed an incident of Racial Abuse before the away game at Oldham earlier this season.
There’s no place for it in football or society.

All done after a lively trip to Bristol Rovers today with 603 U’s in attendance.
Travelling numbers increasing as the good form continues, plenty of new and old supporters enjoying the ride!

I’m being told The Wellington Pub will NOT be open to Col Utd supporters after today’s game

Great finish to today’s game and a great start to 2026.
Excellent crowd at the stadium today too, looking forward to more of those as the year continues!

A cold and damp Saturday today in Walsall.
Excellent away performance though to send 318 very happy Col Utd supporters home!
