Default We Are Top Of The League

Manchester United supporters have been involved in more football-related arrests where racism was an aggravating factor or feature than any other club in England in the four seasons to 2017-18, data from the Home Office shows.

Per head, we're probably among the lowest tbf.

This is why I don't read that shit rag anymore.

Id say the overwhelming proportion of cases is racism against us. It's absolutely relentless.

Not quite, in terms of percentages we are still higher than the others, but we're talking 0.0001% higher

So in real terms, it doesn't matter what team the support base is from, around 0.00025% of the fan base has probably been arrested for offences relating to racism.

Exactly. Nothing story about nothing statistics put into a pretty dress, all tarted up, and then presented as some sort of meaningful article.

Gonna need some bona fides before accepting your assertion.

A level?

Didn't go to college and barely went to high school, but I'm shit hot with Excel

I actually agreed with your assertion that we'd be less than the rest of the clubs and started compiling the stats, we worked out at 0.000321% with around a total of 27 arrests from the 8.4 millions fans between the 14/15 - 17/18 seasons.

I then went with Leicester who are the next highest from the Premiership in terms of arrests, but would have a lower attendance when compared to Chelsea who equaled their arrest record. Leicester total attendances between 14/15 - 17/18 seasons is 5.2 million fans, with a total arrest record of 14, which gives a percentage of 0.000267%.

I stopped there and didn't bother with the rest, as it was obvious that they would be around the same, if not lower then Leicester. Millwall and Leeds may be higher than ours, but to be honest neither are worth my time.

When you're talking about breaking a single arrest figure down to the 4th decimal place, over the course of 4 seasons, then it's definitely fair to say there's not much in it. In the grand scheme of things, you have to say that the numbers for all clubs are shockingly low, and that it should almost be considered a good thing.

All figures obtained from this site

Actual attendance numbers between the 14/15 - 17/18 seasons:
Man United: 8,410,303
Leicester: 5,240,791

I remember against Leicester years ago united fans were singing who is minding the corner shop to a group of asian Leicester fans. pLus there was the usually paddy comments and Yids stuff to Spurs fans but it has all stopped.

Never heard anti Irish at Utd in my life. Heard plenty of Jewish (to Spurs) and the odd idiot shouting black stuff back in the day, but not once Irish.

Seems to be you following us around, attempting to provoke (see: your initial response to lazlo). Not surprised at your lack of self awareness though, it's a common theme among racists.

It’s becoming a parody (a thunderously shit one) now with you two.

And no, I have never heard anything anti-Irish at Old Trafford. I’ve heard lots of anti scouse and cockney, is that racist as well?
