No Ticket, No Entry: Tailgating Now a Criminal Offense at UK Football Matches
A new law in the UK now classifies attempting to enter a football ground without a ticket as a criminal offense. Fans caught tailgating face up to five-year banning orders and £1,000 fines, with the legislation coming into effect ahead of the Carabao Cup final. The move follows years of concerns about safety and security breaches at major football events.
