I don't think the Police can revoke licenses
They can make recomendations to the licensing board but can't act as jury, judge and executioner.

Yep, but I am also very, very lazy. If you are going to post accusations like this at least provide a source so I don't have to expend any more energy than strictly necessary.

I'd disagree, part of their responsibilites as a landlord is to do everything in their powers to reduce crime. If teams of shoplifters use pubs to openly sell stolen goods or drugs are sold and consumed and the licencee condones it or turns a blind eye it's nothing to do with licensing laws but the Police wouldn't be happy about it.

I'll save you the bother, I seriously doubt that information would be recorded. If you want to ask about spikes in violence during football matches and their aftermath and by people under the influence of alcohol then feel free.
