Police accused of 'bullying' Man Utd fans

The Greater Manchester Police have reportedly been accused of 'bullying' Manchester United supporters on away trips.

United fanzine Red Issue are said to have compiled a dossier of evidence claiming that a number of officers illegally confiscated tickets from the club's supporters.

According to the Daily Mail, the dossier makes reference to eight away fixtures, the majority of which were around Europe, including trips to Lyon and Celtic in 2008 and Marseille in 2011, where alleged confiscations had taken place.

The dossier is believed to have been sent to Police Commissioner Tony Lloyd, with an investigation expected to take place.
