    In the grand scheme of things it's something you'd probably see outside city and town centre bars every friday and saturday night and I pretty much doubt those involved receive any kind of custodial sentence .

    If they did then the prison system would have problems .

    If he gets the full 6 months inside and a lifetime ban from all football grounds then it's reasonable to say justice was served in my opinion .



    I wonder if he gave up his season ticket voluntarily and agreed to give up attending football altogether would there be any need to prosecute as it could be argued that "would it be in the public interest" to do so
    Now doesn't that sound ludicrous
    Well it worked for Phill Windsor

    It's a social problem, football clubs do their bit and there's only so much tha can do wi art fencing us all back in which is not a solution. As animal said in an earlier post tha can't legislate for a few idiots arta a 30,000 crowd but unprovoked attacks happen in most towns and cities every Saturday night.

    Dooali sed abart stewards but they do a good job on the whole in my opinion. Them stewards at Wembley did a manful job that day. They were being coined, pushed, punched, abused and spat at by the millwall yobs (i saw this with my own eyes as i was sat right on the divide that day) but the stewards under unrelenting strain managed to hold most of em back till the old bill made an appearance 10 minutes later. A can't say ad a been as keen as they were that day to do that horrible job holding back the Neanderthals on minimum wage. Credit to em.

    A few recent unsavoury incidents in football grounds have got people nationwide talking far too negatively in my opinion. These incidents are unfortunate to say the least but but we must remember that they are few and far between. It'd be nice to hear some positivity about football supporters for a change. The game has come a long way since the 70s and 80s when the fenced in dilapidated grounds were the last place many run of the mill fans wanted to be when hooliganism was at its peak. The game was dying back then but since better facilities were built the game has cleaned up its act on the whole. Attendances have gone back up, the vast majority are there to enjoy the spectacle and trouble is kept down to a minimum. I think some credibility should be due rather than talk of fences etc.

    The fact is though, the game will always be tarnished by past misdemeanors and heavier sentences handed out because of association or involvement in football when these incidents occur. Two separate rules for the same crime in other words.

    There isn't a solution bar upping the security at football grounds. I don't agree with that by the way because I'll reiterate that the vast majority go about their business in an orderly fashion. Points deduction is wrong too. SB hits the nail on the head in that respect. We're talking about idiotic individuals here and not football supporters in general who deserve commendation imo.
