Fifteen people have been charged following disorder after Bradford City's away match at Swindon Town last year.

The individuals were charged on Tuesday in relation to violent disorder which saw home supporters attack a coach carrying Bantams fans following the game on October 23.

Those charged are:

Ben Stephen Allen, 18, of Sandhill, Shrivenham, Swindon

Archie Bowman, 20, of Elgar Close, Redhouse, Swindon

Connor Carpenter, 21, of Akers Way, Moredon, Swindon

Dale Clark, 27, of Barrowby Gate, Swindon

Shannon Patrick Power, 33, of Purley Avenue, Swindon

Darren Roberts, 19, of Redhouse Way, Swindon

Callum Teal, 18, of Bourne Road, Moredon

Corey Joe Wise, 19, of West View, Nythe, Swindon

The charges came after Wiltshire Police announced in January that 13 people had been arrested in relation to the incident near The County Ground in Swindon.

The chairman of a Bradford City supporters’ group, Steve Gorringe welcomed the action taken by police and said he hoped anyone who was ultimately proven to be involved in the trouble would "get what they deserve."

Speaking about the wider issues seen at football grounds this year, he said: "I feel like youngsters are trying to reenact what football was like in the ’70s and ’80s and nobody wants it.”

Mr Gorringe, of Shipley Bantams, added that he was at the match on the day of the attack and although his coach didn’t get hit, a few things were being thrown by some of the home fans which could have caused serious damage. 

Swindon Town Football club wrote a statement on their website at the time and said that any fans found guilty of attacking the bus would face a lifetime ban from the County Ground.

They added ‘this kind of behaviour will not be tolerated by Swindon Town Football Club.’

Sgt Connor Crespin, who is the operational lead for Operation Defender – a police response to keeping football safe – said: “We are fully committed to ensuring that football remains safe and accessible to all fans.

"Football related violence has no place in the game and we will continue to work closely with Swindon Town Football Club to ensure fans can enjoy the sport safely.”
