Not sure how many of you know this, and it was only bought to my attention yesterday when I saw riot cops at our match against NWS Spirit.
So our youth played Hakoah Sydney City East at our home ground yesterday, and there was cop presence from 8am till the last match of the day at 5pm. Hakoah have their own private security, and the police helicopter circled Edensor 3 or 4 times during the course of the day. Our club only got notified the day before. Apparently, this happens to all their away games, at the expense of the taxpayers.
Talk about over kill.
