Stuart Niven, a police officer from Altrincham, was seen burning a Manchester United flag at Wembley earlier this month. Had he been seen by officers policing the match, on April 16, he could have been arrested for a public order offence.
After the game, this thick blue put the picture up on Facebook and now admits he could have blown his career.

Well, even if you were not drunk, you’re stupid already enough for being a shitty fan.
I think you’r fucked up STRONZO !!!!!
I fucking hope he does lose his job. If your a cit-eh fan and your a pig surely that offends cit-ehs owners!
One word “CUNT”!
I really hope he loses his job.
Stupid fucking idiot
Send in some complaints. Double standards from a policeman. When will those cunts in blue (this time I mean coppers) realise your job isn’t just another job, you have a responsibility just like footballers apparently do. I wonder how many people he’s arrested for being drunk and not acting to the same level of Neanderthal status. Then posting it on facebook. Seriously, do the police employs fucking idiots these days. Seems so, thats why this country is one big fucking mess.
where do i send the compliant? lol
anyway, it would be sad for a guy to lose his job over something that is pretty much nothing, but do we need idiots like this policing the law? hhmmm. tough one.
OHH so your admitting you were drunk in a public place now as well as burning our flag
Bitter blue bastard fuck you CUNT
35 years
35 years
hahah be fking worried you wing nutted fker… made me choke on me sugar puffs this morning when i was reading me paper… deserves all he is about to receive!!!!
Look at all the tats lads think we found the cunt with ROONEY SHITTY LEGEND on his back . . . . . .
35 years FUCK ALL
Anyone stupid and uneducated enough to have tattoos all over his arms should never be allowed to be police officer in the first place! You could say the same about anyone being stupid enough to support city should never be allowed in the force either!
He should loose his carrier. Wonder how may matches he has provided security for. Bet United means more to his annual income than Ch*tty.
How is ‘I was drunk’ an excuse for setting stuff on fire? If there’s some sort of legal loophole then I’ll just nip over to the wastelands and have a few cans while I torch the place. Obviously I’ll have to do it on matchday when it’s empty so nobody will get hurt.
Sandrooooooooooo!
@ RedLife. Burn a cit-eh flag before the game next time we play them and watch what happens. Its hardly nothing, We don’t need people like him policing people. Sends out the wrong message. Which paper picked this up by by the way.
Brainless classless fucking cunt.
Belter of a goal from Sandro!
Not the brightest spark is he?
Fucking refs help Chelscum more than Barcelona.
hope he dies simples
what a twat some other copper a scouser in the paper as well today
posting munichs on his facebook fucking bonehead
does make me smile with there scouse moral outrage rgds Hillsborough
didnt seem to be so bothered 70′s and 80′s
when they use to sing about munich constantly
“Sometimes people do stupid things when they’re drunk. I’m now worried I’m going to lose my job.”
What does he mean by stupid, burning the flag or putting it on face book!!! And this cunt is a copper, yeah we really need more fuckin neanderthals in the police, I wouldn’t to see anyone lose thier job over summat like this but he deserves all the ridicule and weekend nightshifts coming his way.
Should make the cutbacks a bit easier. LOL
One less prick that my taxes have to pay for.
No doubt he is one of the “Munich” singers aswell. I hope he gets re-assigned to dog shit collection with the council.
How did this guy pass the tests to become a copper?
100 % idiot!
This is not only why I hate city fans, but why I hate the police.
daft cunt.
“Sometimes people do stupid things when they’re drunk.”
You sound just like your mum.
Im from Altrincham and see the thick berty all the time don’t worry ill cross the road to give him shit
I Just hope he’ll die very soon u bitterbluecunt…!!
I Just hope he’ll got shot from some mobs while he’s doing his job! bitterbluecunt…!!
Loving the hate for this blue bastard
Sort of sums a bitter up really,desperate,Ugly and Retarded,just find where the Twat lives and constantly order Pizzas at all hours,I notice theres no Reds near so it was a brave thing to do wasnt it,someone will spot the Twat somewhere and Bait him good,sad Twat!
no way a fucking lowlife like him should be allowed to be a cop,twats like him with the power to effect someones life,don’t you need a education to be a cop,fuck me a cunt like that in a cops uniform reminds me of a clockwork orange.
simply – DIE, you fuckin cunt!
u represent your ´comedy-club´ in the best way!
If he claims to be drunk whe doing this, why didnt he delete the pic when he was uploading them the next day stupid citeh cunt!
Goes to show cunts come in all sizes.. all this twat can do now is hope for a “power shift” that’ll land him a higher rank.
Och lads give the Old Bill a break! We all do and say some real stupit things when we are a bit bladdered, do we not! I call it the Wkid, influence.Mind my tipple is, White Lightening, its eye opening, and brain cell crushing.
But wont defract me for my love of all things United.
Tm, buckfast.
You just cant get the correct staff! Its all in the interviewing process!
ROFLMAO
As scan74 points out, its the dipper twat & his munich stuff that offends me, all whilst no doubt demanding justice for the 96. As much as the scousers try to pass off the Munich stuff sa just a few mindless majority, its fully ingrained in the pricks. As scan also rightly says, they were a lot more vocal in the 70/80s about it too. Though in fairness, that was probably chelsea infiltrating the kop as well.
And before I got distracted by the dippers, as I meant to start with, this guy doesn’t offend me, he just makes me laugh, proving what a tool he is. Does make u wonder about the police n their double standards tho, public order offences & all that.
This may just be a technicality, but if he does get the sack, will he have to become a dippers fan????
It’s about time we got free speech in this country. Burning a flag is not a crime. It has no impact on his ability to do his job. Do you think he’s going to show unfair treatment towards united fans? Doubtful. It’s just part of group polarization that when you get a large group of people together under one opinion, they tend to get more extreme. It’s part of the nature of football fandom. Let’s be rational, if it was a picture of a United fan burning a city flag we’d all be defending him. Those commenting “I hope he gets shot” are the ones that offend me.
@john johnson problem is mate if he was in his cops uniform he’d arrest someone for doing the same thing,thats a double standard,if he wants to be a cop then he can’t be a drunken thug at weekends,if you don’t get that something wrong with you
A copper and a City fan? Double cunt.
Thanks for the money and supporting Man United, is what I think.
Just look at the cunt. Typical fucking Babylon, bullied in the playground so joins up so he can become the playground bully. Every filth you meet these days is a fucking arrogant bastard. They drive round breaking the speed limit , not wearing seatbelts and generally stopping me as I drive a white fucking van. Now burning flags in public. No surpise whatsoever. No wonder this country has gone to the dogs.
Oh surprise. First off “John Johnson“ defends the munichs chants and that article in the guardian. Now he is sticking up for a bitter at the expense of United. ,
One of the biggest negatives of EPL is that people hate their own country men than they do hate Germans, what for ? call football being your life and all that bullshit,its after all a sport and you are after all a supporter, all that you can do is shout from the stands thats it. why hate and throw such vitreous at your own country men?.Its not even worth a penny
Blue Moon,
You saw me standing alone,
Without a dream in my heart,
Without a love of my own
you fairy copper…
i would have punched the fuck out this cunt, copper or not, he be bleedin like the cunt i got hold of last night, faggots the lot of em….
Shitty fan! Hope he loses his job, duh!
@Nick
What do you mean by ‘Anyone stupid and uneducated enough to have tattoos all over his arms should never be allowed to be police officer in the first place” I cant see what that has to do with anything?
I have 2 sleeves as do one of my pals who is a police officer?
Fuck me what a fucking moron. What the fuck is up with City fans. I use the word “fans” lightly cause anyone that burns flags or takes part in sick chants is not worthy of the name. It’s fair enough expressing your dislike for another club but there should always be a level of repect and a line that should never be crossed. Yes I hate Liverpool, Yes I hate Arsenal, Yes I hate City, but Yes I repect them as football clubs and what they have achieved or are trying to achieve. This cunt must have the IQ of a gold fish. The government should really review the criteria for acceptance into the police force.
Get that P45 on his desk!
Typical Shitty fan full of hatred and bitterness. Why the fuck did Monsour buy that club?
No wonder this countries in a f***ing mess…..A copper burning a flag. VERY MATURE!!! Fucking typical blue too……Gonna be blue for many more years to come also!
35…………..
the fucking Bastrad pig cunt wanking pigs wanker….
A serious error of fundemental judgement by a public servent . Proving he has no ability to seperate his support of his club and his duty . No doubt he will NOT be sacked. Point is just hope, when you have dealings with the Police its not this particular nasty little man !!!!
How are we any better than the ones calling us Munichs if we make comments like I hope he dies?
If this was one of our fans, whatever his profession, we would be putting up for a knighthood or Police Chief.
We don’t need to be bitter, we are Man Utd and we win what we want!
And people have the nerve to say 9/10 coppers are THICK AS SHIT CUNTS.
You can forgive stupidity,but not those who are proud of it.Posting it on facebook?Do the secret services have cut back costs due to the influx of people freely giving out their most intimate and personal details on fb?
What a daft git. It turns out though he is NOT EVEN A COPPER, but works for the M.O.D. as one of THEIR Policemen. Bet he told everyone he was a poper copper though!
Goes to show how dumb he is. He shouldn’t be allowed to have his job back after being setting such a poor example to others esp kids. If I ever see him walking the streets I’d run him over
Course he won’t be sacked he’ll probably be promoted to CID with the other Cunts. You’ve got to run over AT LEAST two pedestrians before you get a slap on the wrist from the IPCC.
I mean, personally, I couldn’t think of a single football flag I could be arsed to burn in the street. Might light a BBQ or something with a mates rival scarf if he’s not looking, but walking down the fucking street on match day burning a football flag? Give it a fucking rest pal, the STUDENTS gave your lot a RIGHT GOOD GOING OVER. Brought a tear to my eye. So never mind United you wanna get ready for Summer you twat. Now Fuck Off.
MiddyRed – Should of known better coming from a CITY supporter, course he’s not a fucking Copper he’s probably not even MOD. Probably just some two-bit community support officer with a bright Yellow uniform.
he’s a fucking mall cop.lol
Drunk, stupid, and bad tattoos. Hell of a way to go through life.
STUART NAIVE Hmmmm, WHAT A FUCKING ROTTER! this is what the intelligent majority of the red persuasion of manchester laugh at ,and a fukin blue copper setting himself up for a new mcdonalds job is the nipple on the eccles cake, he probably had the usual slaps at school, not bullied just hated,even by other blues, who could write a script like the city show? they are all related as we know, one big family from the back of stockport and bananas and own goal balloons, blue tomato sauce ha ha on derby day, champions of diversity! remember? tapping into the gay community for the hope of bigger crowd, and fukin ‘snoods’ it will be screw in flip flops next..and not to mention “the glory days” fuck me slowly with one of the 19 premierships! now they have a deadline to overtake manchester united in worldwide popularity,thats support, financially,commercially,yes, as soon as you can fill your ground you will be off-ha ha ha the ribs you’ve tickled..go and get a history and then you might just get a few flags burnt because no-body knows your name..ps what the fuck has blue moon got to do with your team, hey,hey c’mon coz its blue in it? snurrk,snurrk,snurrkle…
