My little scrote of a nephew got "pushed " onto the pitch and was taken to the cop shop and released at 1a.m without charge ( His version not mine )
I've never understood why anyone is held that long. Hold them till the games finished if deserved, but what can anyone do at 1am, away from their home town?

Common police tactic. They ask you to admit your guilty, and be released there and then, but if you don't, then they release you when there's no public transport. I had a run in with Penrith's finest many moons ago, they promised me a lift home so I didn't bother taking a coat, released me at 2am, the driver had since clocked off and they couldn't give me a lift home, and I had to walk home 4 miles in the snow, in just tracksuit bottoms and a tshirt.
They said if I admitted on tape I was guilty they'd release me, but if I wanted to get a lawyer and all that, it would take a few hours. I told them I didn't care, I wanted a lawyer. Lawyer was barely there for five minutes, told them that I hadn't broken the law, and they released me without charge.
