Personally, after that sickening, cowardly attack, I think repercussions should be brought against them.
3 games behind closed doors
Possible points deduction
Even ban their scabby fans from Wembley
What’s your thoughts ?
It's one dickhead, I wouldn't punish the club.
Stick a pound on the next away ticket as is traditional
Apparently sharp and maCpikie were winding the forest fans up behind them throughout the game, just banter but why bother?
That's a nasty assault
Being shouldered at speed by a big bloke could have caused serious injuries
That's the sort of thing rugby thugs used to get away with
15,000 people ran onto the pitch and there was 1 incident which couldn’t have been prevented. Not sure why Forest should be punished.
It should be easy enough to work out who it was and fine/ban/jail/etc him.
The alternative is stamp out pitch invasions and put up 10ft fences around the pitch and ruin the game and excitement for every fan base in the country.
As has been said, thousands of Forest fans ran onto the pitch but there was only this one serious incident. Just to give this "fan" a lifetime ban would be a nonsense. If he had done that to anyone in the street outside he would be charged with assault and taken to court - inside a football ground should make no difference.
The fan should be charged with assault and banned for life. Dint think the club should be punished because of the behaviour of one thug.

6 months
If he had broken the players jaw or cheekbone or fractured his skull he could have been looking at 4 years
What an arsehole
Wow, that was quick work by the courts fair play! I expected it would be several months before the case came to court by which time the severity of the act would have diminished and he would get a slapped wrist and a paltry fine. No reason given for why he did it as far as I can see?
A lenient sentence I reckon. Some of our lot had far severe sentences after that Chelsea set up a few years ago.
