Poole Town FC Condemn Anti-Social Behaviour

Poole Town FC condemn the unacceptable behaviour of a small number of individuals who caused distress and disruption following the conclusion of the match against Basingstoke Town.

At this point in time, three individuals that were involved have subsequently been identified and arrested for violence and assault and have had bail terms of not attending games in any league from the Southern League upwards.

The irresponsible actions of a minority of fans intent on causing disorder are endangering and ruining the matchday experience for other supporters.

Dorset Police are currently continuing investigations regarding the recent incidents, and as a club we will continue to support their efforts in identifying any individuals responsible.

Anti-social behaviour of any kind will not be tolerated, and we urge all fans to support the team passionately, responsibly and considerately, as most supporters do every week. Anyone who is deemed to have put the safety of fellow supporters and the local community at risk will be investigated and sanctioned accordingly.
