Not quite so random...
It actually went to Parliament, the club, the local MPs and the local press pushed for it because the FA were still adamant to hold the game midweek despite the trouble.
We have pretty much the entire Dorset police force out tonight, most clubs and bars in Bournemouth and its surrounding area are either closed or ticket only and season ticket holders who rarely miss a game won't venture out of the house.
You might laugh and say it was seventeen years ago but the most of the fans from both sides will be made up of those who don't normally go to games and weren't even born seventeen years ago and will get very nasty.
