[QUOTE="Barrie Jay, post: 771394, member: 1163"] Didn`t hurt that much as I had eaten far too much anaesthetic, lol - quite funny watching everybody neck whatever they had once they knew it was all going to end in tears. The compensation thing was a bit odd. I decided to sue the bastards just to cause as much hassle as I possibly could. Getting paid off was a bonus. Turns out that my Solicitor found 4 other similar cases and three were from Fleetwood and one nearby I recall. Glad we decided to fight back. The enquiry was a bit of whitewash - carried out internally by the Police themselves. In those days riot Police had no identification other than a code from the unit they were from on their helmets. How the fuck are you supposed to identify someone from a bunch all dressed the same hiding behind face masks? To my knowledge not one copper was charged and although I would not defend the action of a few out of control idiots leading more than a few revellers into behaving like a mob, the actions and reactions of the police were outrageous. I witnessed one of the girls from Fleetwood being hit several times very hard with a truncheon. The charges they threatened us with and reason for locking us all up - a breach of the peace. Err.......you fucking dumbwits we were in a warehouse on a trading estate miles from anywhere. Just whose peace were we disturbing? I am unsure about the 8 charges and would like more information on that. I have done a bit of searching on the net and not come up with anything worthwhile. If anybody knows where there is any additional information please post the links. Someone someday should make a documentary about this. [/QUOTE]
