Correct, basically. There are nuances around what is chargeable and what isn't. It gets quite complex at bigger events and lawyers get rich arguing about it on both sides.

But police get around this basic premis to an extent by insisting at the safety advisory group meeting which 'authorises' the fixture on X number of officers in the ground or primarily being deployed to be available to deploy into the footprint of the ground. Even if they don't get sent in, they are there as a public safety contingency.

And if the club don't pay for the additional ones, you do, from your council tax, whether you attend or not.
