    Birmingham could enter relegation race

    The thug who assaulted Grealish has got a short spell in pokey but there is more pain to come as Birmingham could be docked points for failing to control the fans. They are also in the frame to be docked points for FFP offences, a decision is imminent. They have no sympathy from me as I could see many hundreds behind the goal cheering the idiot who thumped Grealish in a cowardly attack from behind. Financial penalties are not enough to stop this behaviour, we have witnessed this at our Derby games against Burnley and got away quite lightly but there have been three instances this weekend and the time has come for much firmer action and in my mind a points reduction is the only way to make the crowd police itself. Discuss.

    Lets not mention the Burnely fan who got on the pitch to attack Robbie Savage at Turf Moor in the FA Cup match
    A Burnley fan would never do such a thing!!!

    The season we went down, Huddersfield played a weakened team an Brum, who had not won one game in the 2nd half of the season, got a win!! And stayed up, on GD. This will be sweet to see them go down if it happens. I can't see it, but it would be great.

    Going back many years, around 1963 , a Rovers fan ran on the pitch from the Blackburn End, some say he had a knife, the Burnley Goalkeeper was Adam Blacklaw who grabbed his arm, threw him down like a wet rag and he was carted off by the police. I don't recall what the outcome was but I don't think points were deducted.
