I really hope Grealish posts a picture of the cheque or whatever on his Instagram. |
Then burns it for maximum lulz. |  |

Probably about 15 years ago in fairness. I was bottled and stabbed, from behind. 10 stitches in my arm and glue to the head.
Ok, I take the point that the two (knife crime and player attacks) aren't necessarily correlated, but I still maintain my last point that you can't have people running on the pitch tooled up or not, and that a points deduction would be a huge deterrent to over zealous supporters. |
I think a points deduction for one idiot running onto the pitch & slapping a player is too severe. At least the buffoon has been quickly convicted, jailed & banned for 10 years.
IMO, points deductions should be reserved for the mass invasions such as Leeds against us at Elland Road a few years ago.
However, the intimidating pitch invasions when Birmingham scored against us in a League Cup semi final in 2001 still rankle. |  |

It was several youths. I had to look at mugshots at the police station and while some looked familiar I couldn't say for certain (or which ones actually hit/stabbed me as it was from behind) so none got caught. They didn't rob me, no. I legged it. Didn't actually know I'd been stabbed until the police who picked me up spotted it. |  |

Stabbed?
Whatever you do Dolly don't overreact will you. |
Mind what you say to Dollers; he ate a whole pig-lion yesterday. |  |

I think it's a really sad incident for football. I really rate Grealish as a player and thought he conducted himself well around the incident and to score the winner takes real guts.
Got to say I rate him a bit as a person now too. Not least because he's one of the best players in the league and gets kicked at least 6 times a game. |  |

maximum sentence for the charges brought were 6 months, so take off some for the guilty plea, even if you think its a bit of a nonsense that part given the evidence he could hardly plead not guilty unless his solicitor thought the charge was completely wrong, so theyve halved the max plus added 2 weeks as I think they do take into account extent of injuries caused, presumably first offence etc etc etc.
but then last Birmingham fan who ran on the pitch to taunt Peter Enckelman, the Villa goalkeeper after he had conceeded a goal in 2002, got 4 months, though we dont know the full details of that
so its probably about right for the charge brought, even if it might feel lenient. |
Who said? You don't know under what section he was charged with do you? I haven't seen it reported anywhere. |  |

Maximum custodial sentence for a magistrates court is six months, according to the reports of the trial. |
Yes it is but it can be moved to Crown if deemed that magistrates sentencing isn't adequate. | |

Hmm
Will have to turn a blind eye to our promotion winning pitch invasion then under Lyall. |  | | |
