Other than bringing back barriers, there's not much a club can really do because one fan sees red. I think in these derby matches though the stewards need to be much more on the ball - he shouldn't have been able to reach Grealish.Just a matter of time before someone did that, and just a matter of time someone's armed with a sharp object.
Really need to punish clubs with point deductions for this stuff.
Yeah I said that in the gameweek thread as well, came to think of it as I posted here. It's a tough one really, but that guy should be jailed and banned for life from football. fecking prick.Other than bringing back barriers, there's not much a club can really do because one fan sees red.

If clubs started getting points deducted then what's stopping opposing fans running onto the pitch in order for the home club to hit.
The guy should go to jail for assault though
Common assault and battery, he'll get a community order and also be charged with running onto a football pitch.What a piece of shit. Hope he enjoys his jail cell as he’ll be going down for quite a while.
Burglary in a dwelling is the more serious offence, he'd be sent down for that.Absolutely disgusting cowardly attack from behind. If he really felt that way he should have just burgled his house.
Has it been confirmed the guy is originally from Liverpool?Absolutely disgusting cowardly attack from behind. If he really felt that way he should have just burgled his house.
Football stuff seems to get much stiffer sentences. The guys having a ruck with scousers in the Europa all got sent down. Happens outside a pub and feck all happens.Common assault and battery, he'll get a community order and also be charged with running onto a football pitch.

They would have been sent offWhat a coward - I hope one of the villa players gave him a good punch in the mouth
Not yet. We'll soon know if he also claims to be the victim.Has it been confirmed the guy is originally from Liverpool?
If people went to prison for throwing a punch we'd need to build a lot more prisonsWhat a piece of shit. Hope he enjoys his jail cell as he’ll be going down for quite a while.
Yeah but they don’t so...If people went to prison for throwing a punch we'd need to build a lot more prisons
I imagine the wind blew him out of his seat and across the pitch.Not yet. We'll soon know if he also claims to be the victim.
Not often someone storms a pitch to punch a footballer in the face on live TV though. Pretty sure assault can be punishable by time behind bars, and in a case like this they'd want to make an example of the twat do that.If people went to prison for throwing a punch we'd need to build a lot more prisons
Or if he says he was just watching and the wind blew him on the pitch and into Grealish.Not yet. We'll soon know if he also claims to be the victim.
Spot on.Should play their home games behind closed doors for the rest of the season and their away quota should be cut in half.
