Football (Disorder) Act 2000
The Football (Disorder) Act 2000 is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom enacted during the premiership of Tony Blair. It served as an amendment to the Football Spectators Act 1989, and strengthened football banning orders (FBOs), a civil order imposed to those convicted of football-related offences. FBOs may be issued by courts in the United Kingdom, or following a complaint from a local police force. The Act has been criticised by civil liberties campaigners for being "draconian", fearing it may result in profiling based on fan appearance.
