This happened in 81 and that happened in 78. You keep going on about what happened in another century. Come out of the cave Sir Henry!

I'm surprised you haven't complained about the crowd surge at villa yet. I'm sure if you write a nice letter to david cameron he'll launch an enquiry into it to stop those nasty ruffians againIceman29 wrote:Its not 84 but 2010.

My views on it are clear. Its dangerous and could lead to injuries to less able people. I am able to look out for myself during such instances. Experience is the best teacher in life and once things go wrong people will learn for themselves. Also with reduction in allocation in the coming years as a result of such behaviour (villa and stoke have done it already), the surges will automatically die down or become less of a concern. I don't need to come on a forum and voice my disapproval for something.

I am sure they can read english and the words that coming on the pitch is a legal offence. I paid money to watch football, not some teenagers having a run about on the football pitch. They can go and do that in Hyde Park. Thousands of people over there as well.Irish Gooner wrote:They are teenagers it even says so and has pics in the gazette!M-50 wrote:They ain't kids.

And then what do you do if it starts happening in every one of our home games?Radford149 wrote:radford says no ban for all. move on and he's more for on the pitch fun
You can't then ban the next group, as they can refer back to the initial 'non-offenders' who went unpunished.
As far as I'm concerned, if they've committed a criminal offence, then they deserve to be punished for it. I've had enough of this country's flimsy judicial system allowing youngsters off purely because of their age. Teach them a lesson now, maybe it'll teach 'em some respect.

MORE SURGES, MORE PITCH INVASIONS, MORE STANDING = MORE FUN

Personally I not overly bothered about these kids but more the long term effects.
If if was just the one kid a don't think we'd be having this thread but there was 5 kids in total. (?)
The real issue which BPP mentioned is the safety aspect what if the kid was a nutter or Sid!

It was a criminal offence and they unfortunately should face the consequence.
A short term ban (5 years) plus a fine for the parents.
