Il Manchester City di Mancini, dato per moribondo dopo l’eliminazione dalla “FA Cup” che ha mandato in archivio l’ ultima possibilità per i “Citizens” di alzare un trofeo in questa stagione, è imprevedibilmente risorto sul campo del Chelsea cogliendo un clamoroso successo per quattro reti a due. La squadra di casa, ridotta in nove, ha ceduto alle doppiette di Bellamy e Tevez.La polizia dello Yorkshire ha messo in campo un ingente spiegamento di forze per contenere al minimo gli incidenti in occasione del derby tra Huddersfield e Leeds ( supporters in foto ). Per la cronaca la partita si è conclusa sul due pari. Lo scorso anno le due tifoserie entrarono ripetutamente in contatto. Non sarà certo da meno la stracittadina di Glasgow di domani tra Rangers e Celtic. Si è appena celebrato un procedimento penale per dei fatti che hanno coinvolto alcuni tifosi delle due squadre che si sono trovati a viaggiare sullo stesso treno nel giorno di una precedente sfida. Mc Gregor, nonostante la rissa che lo ha coinvolto in settimana sembra destinato ad essere regolarmente in campo mentre nei Celtic c’è apprensione per la condizione precaria di Keane. Intanto gli Hearts hanno ottenuto una vittoria di prestigio al “Pittodrie” di Aberdeen.

Manchester City inflicted Chelsea’s first home Premier League defeat this season in a game which began with Wayne Bridge refusing John Terry’s handshake.
Frank Lampard’s low strike put Chelsea ahead but Carlos Tevez equalised after a long ball was not dealt with, before Craig Bellamy shot beyond Hilario.Tevez scored a penalty after Juliano Belletti saw red for a trip on Gareth Barry before a Bellamy tap-in.Michael Ballack also saw red and Lampard scored a consolation penalty.City had failed to score in their previous seven visits to Stamford Bridge, while Chelsea had only conceded eight at home in the Premier League all season.

Police outline crowd management plans for Huddersfield Leeds Derby clash
Feb 25 2010 by Kevin Core, Huddersfield Daily Examiner
POLICE have defended plans to delay the exit of some Huddersfield Town fans following Saturday’s Derby with Leeds United.
Officers say they have considered “all the options” and believe their plans for the crunch fixture are the best way to ensure the safety of fans.Kirklees Superintendent Mick Wharton says while the obvious solution would be to detain away fans after the final whistle, this would increase the pressure on resources.Instead home supporters are being asked not to move from the Riverside Stand to the South Stand car park as controls will be in place.Police want to avoid a repeat of last season when there were clashes after the game.The police chief said: “We have discussed with the club how to manage the end of game at some length over a number of seasons and different approaches have been taken.“The overriding consideration in these deliberations is public safety.“At first glance the solution may appear obvious in that we could hold back the Leeds fans until the majority of home supporters clear the site.“This has been seriously considered, but to ensure the Leeds supporters stay in their seats would require a massive stewarding and police operation when these staff are required elsewhere.“If we try to hold the large numbers of Leeds fans on the stairwell exits we also raise the chances that someone will be seriously injured or worse due to the steep layout of the stand.“As our overriding concern is public safety, we cannot consider this option.“This season we are trying to keep the two main groups apart simply by asking home supporters not to come down the Riverside to the South stand car park as there will be control mechanisms in place.“Home fans can exit the ground at any time they wish from the Kilner Bank stand, or they can walk towards Leeds Road from the Riverside. Clearly for those who are parking their vehicles on the South Stand car park there will be some delay, so asking them to consider waiting in their seats rather than elsewhere seems a sensible request.“We will, however, be working with stewards to clear the South Stand car park as quickly as possible and let everyone go home safely.“At the end of the day I am asking for 20 minutes of patience from a relatively small number of people so that everyone can enjoy the match and leave in a controlled manner at the end of the game.”In terms of policing operations West Yorkshire Police called it one of the biggest events of the season.Huge numbers of police and stewards will be on duty at the Stadium and on approaches to and from the town centre before and after the match.In an email to the club operations director, Ann Hough, season ticket holder Chris Watts wrote: “Would you not accept that on reflection, the irritation/inconvenience caused to 4,000 away fans being kept inside the Pink Link stand for a period is far less than the irritation/inconvenience caused to up to 16,000 home fans being kept inside the Britannia/Pink Link stands and that therefore the safety risk and risk of adverse fan reaction (and Public Disorder) is therefore less if you detain the away fans?”A spokesman for the club said: “Our primary responsibility is to ensure safety.“It is understood that people have complaints but the superintendent has done his best to explain the decision.“A key factor is that away coaches are allowed access straight to the back of the stand so it is easier to get them away and we have conveyed that to the fans.”SUPPORTERS travelling via the motorway are being asked to use Junction 24, following signs for Huddersfield rather than Junction 25.Motorist should consider alternative routes using Brighouse and the A641 Bradford Road.Expect delays if travelling to the event via the A62 Leeds Road corridor.All routes into Huddersfield could be busy and congested in the lead up to the game

Old firm fans’ train confrontation lands men in court
Feb 2010 by Alison Lowson, Perthshire Advertiser Friday
A VIOLENT confrontation between rival football supporters brought a train to a halt between Perth and Stirling.
The guard and police became involved as fans made their way to an Old Firm game in Glasgow and C. M., of Dunsinane Drive, Perth, was arrested. Perth Sheriff Court was told yesterday that a number of Rangers fans were singing songs which annoyed the 50-year-old Celtic diehard.Depute fiscal Robbie Brown said M.’s companion asked them to stop – and that had some effect.But the accused was overheard telling his friend he was “going to be in hospital” as there were 10 of them and only one of him.At one stage, another fan wearing a Rangers’ top appeared and the accused told him to “f*** off” and said he “hoped he drowned”.Mr Brown added: “Thereafter the accused was standing near the toilet when another person appeared and asked to get in but the accused ignored him.”An argument developed and the accused became involved in a fight after he was struck.Other people became involved and managed to separate them and the train was stopped after the emergency cord was pulled.A solicitor for M. said the altercation involved up to 10 Rangers supporters in one of the carriages.The accused left to try and get away from trouble but someone tried to trip him up and gesticulated at him in a threatening manner.“He was in fear he would end up in hospital but accepts he should not have let matters escalate,” the fiscal added.Although he was going to watch the game in a pub in Glasgow, M.had not been wearing football colours at the time.He pled guilty to committing a breach of the peace on the train on October 4 last year.Sheriff Lindsay Foulis imposed a fine of £125.
