Football-related arrests and football banning order statistics Season 2013-14
11 September 2014
FOOTBALL-RELATED ARRESTS AND BANNING ORDERS SEASON 2013-14
Statistical Commentary
During the 2013-14 season, the total number arrests by Home Office police forces in connection with regulated international and domestic football matches involving teams from, or representing, England and Wales was 2,273. This represents a decrease of 183 arrests, or 7%, on the 2012-13 total.
The 2013-14 football-related arrest season total is the lowest on record, continuing the general downwards trend. However, these arrest statistics should be considered in the context that they reflect police activity. Not every incident of violent or disorderly behaviour results in an arrest. In other cases, arrests may be a preventative action. There remains a significant risk of escalation if efforts to prevent and tackle football-related disorder are reduced.
The number of football banning orders decreased by 7% to 2,273 on 3 September 2014 from 2,451 on 20 September 2013. This represents 678 new banning orders imposed during the period. Orders are time limited and expiring all the time.
The statistics cover all arrests designated in law under Schedule 1 of the Football Spectators Act 1989 reported by police to the UK Football Policing Unit. This includes football specific offences (e.g. pitch incursion, throwing missiles inside a stadium) and a range of generic criminal offences committed in connection with a football match. This covers such arrests at any place within a period of 24 hours either side of a match.
This is the second season it has been possible to include British Transport Police’s football-related arrests (total 325, a 3% increase). These have been integrated as far as possible (tables 7, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13). It is not possible to include these arrests in tables 6 and 8 because some of the incidents resulting in arrests involve followers of two, or more, teams that were not playing against each other that day, nor in table 14 because detailed data are not available.
Total attendance at regulated football matches during 2013-14 season in excess of 38 million spectators. The total number of arrests represents less than 0.01% of the total attendance, or 1 arrest for every 16,800 spectators.
During the season an average of less than 1 arrest was made per match inside and outside of stadia (Premier League1 1.57 arrests per match, Championship2 1.02, League One 0.51, League Two 0.29).
More than 60,000 English and Welsh club fans travelled to Champions League and Europa League matches outside of England and Wales. These 36 matches resulted in just 18 arrests of away fans.
1 380 Premier League matches 2 552 matches in each of the Championship, League One and League Two
Statistics on football-related arrests and football banning orders – season 2013-14
During the football season, police Football Intelligence Officers submit a range of data, including arrest information, to the UK Football Policing Unit (UKFPU). The UKFPU contains the Football Banning Orders Authority which administers all football banning orders. The Home Office collates and publishes football-related arrest and banning order data annually.
