This is a story from the FSF archive – the FSF and SD merged to become the FSA in 2019.
Following incidents of disorder around this weekend’s fixture at the New Den between Millwall and Everton, the FSF has issued the following statement:
We condemn all football violence and we’re sure the police will seek to identify the perpetrators. There’s no room for complacency but the actions of a small number of people shouldn’t mask the fact that the overwhelming majority of fans want nothing to do with such behaviour and don’t want these people in stadiums. Football arrest figures are at an historic low and supporters are very unlikely to encounter such incidents.

Following reports in the media today that 15 of Europe’s biggest clubs – including Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea from the Premier League – have agreed to form a breakaway European Superleague, the FSA issued the following statement:
The Government today announced the launch of its promised fan-led review. The Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport secretary of state Oliver Dowden told the Commons that the recent European Super League proposals left the Government with no other option than to act.
Earlier today, the chief executive of the FSA Kevin Miles, along with other fan representatives, met with the prime minister Boris Johnson and secretary of state for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Oliver Dowden. Joined by senior figures from the FA and the Premier League, the meeting was called to discuss the response to the threat of a European Super League – below is our statement on the meeting.
