In that regard, the police presumably took control of the fixture in terms of ticket allocation, kick off time, policing in and outside the ground.
If that was the case then I'm afraid they came up short on all fronts.
It doesn't absolve the nutters who disgraced themselves in and outside the ground and hopefully they are never seen in a football ground again.
The game should never have taken place at night and if we have the misfortune of a repeat draw in future competitions, 11am day time kick off and no away fans should be the basic pre-requisite.
If a replay is needed, then the same arrangements should apply even if it means postponing a league fixture.
If they ever meet in Wembley, then God help us all.
