Increased Police Presence At Redditch For Hereford Game

Police are expected to be around in numbers when Redditch United play Hereford on Monday afternoon.

"There will be a visible police presence in the town centre as well as within the football ground itself," Inspector Mark Chappell told the Redditch Standard.

“This match will see an increase in the number of supporters attending this fixture and we hope it will be as safe as it is memorable for all those who attend.

“Not only is this match an important event for Redditch United FC but the wider community and local businesses who will benefit from the increased footfall.”

Supporters may be searched on arrival at the ground.

"We don’t want to ruin anyone’s enjoyment of this fixture but disorder in any form will not be tolerated. Enjoy the match safely, responsibly and in the spirit of good sportsmanship."
