Why do you think the incident at Arsenal was a copycat? A) I remember Chopra scoring a winner against the jacks and there was one fan on the pitch joining in the celebration and B) there was sufficient negative press that the person surely would have thought again.
If jail time and significantly fewer life chances afterwards doesn't put an individual off (because that's what this person is facing) then I think you're looking at wider problems in society. That won't be sorted by moats or fences.

The £350 includes the £100 compo.
And BCFC have banned him for life.

A more harsh punishment would be to re-instate his season ticket and make him watch Birmingham every week - they are shite
Whats to stop him sneaking in a year from now to watch games when everybody has forgotten about it - that idiot from Leeds who attacked Kirkland a few years ago brags on social media he regularly watches them after his ban

I think he has to report to a police station in Birmingham every time they play at home. The Leeds lad had his ban lifted apparently

Re: Jack Grealish punched by Birmingham fan
Anyone else find it weird how we had 3 instances in one weekend when we've had nothing in years? I can't help think fake news. Shouldn't think this way but I trust nothing nowadays. We live in a twisted world.
Re: Jack Grealish punched by Birmingham fan
Why should Birmingham be punished? The answer is very simple. If a bonehead runs on the pitch, it should be an instant 2yr in clink, and a lifetime ban from every football ground in the UK.

What does 'fake news' mean to you? As I'm not sure it's the same as everyone else.
Re: Jack Grealish punched by Birmingham fan
Haha I wasn't suggesting it didn't happen. Just find it interesting 3 incidents in the same weekend after none in years. Wouldn't be surprised if these were planted.

I think that he's suggesting that some kind of conspiracy could be underway.
I must admit it did cross my mind, without any kind of notion as to why it's happening now all of a sudden.
Is it just that a few simpletons are copying each other as they have nothing better to do or to lose?
..or is there more to it than meets the eye? :sherlock:

Copycats is far more likely.

Copycats more than likely, that’s why Americans sports don’t show pitch invaders, they cut away and refuse to mention it or give the person screen time.
Re: Jack Grealish punched by Birmingham fan
Copycats is the most likely reason but I wouldn't be surprised if there are darker forces at work. Don't ask me what. I wouldn't know.

Exactly. Anyone with an ounce of sense can see that they were plants by Sky TV to get all games played behind closed doors so that they will further increase their revenue as arm chair football will be the only football available to anyone. :hehe:

Russian state sponsored pitch invasions?
