If that's the case then he's got off lightly, out in 6- 8 weeks with a tag for the remainder of his sentance. What really concerns me over this is South Yorks police never learn do they, the Miners, Hillsborough, this seems to be run by a bunch of Mickey Mouse fuds on silly salaries. Just imagine if this dafty had a blade on him, we could potentially be talking about murder here. As a teenager in the 80s who was heavilly drawn into this scene we never wanted to hit the players, opposing fans yes but players why?

they did blink an eye. Celtic had a European Cup win in the 80s over Rapid Vienna overturned because someone attacked their keeper. Celtic did enough to get through but the match result was thrown out and they had to replay it (behind closed doors IIRC???) anyways, they went out on the replayed game.
a pedant writes, it was the cup winners cup. everton near rapid in the final. words you're unlikely to hear for some time was the replay at old Trafford?
It was at Old Trafford and I was there that night, with my cousin who was big into Celtic at the time. Celtic had to replay their home tie after a rapid Vienna player said he was hit by a bottle at Celtic park and Celtic got beat that night. The bloke who attacked the 'keeper came from near where I was standing in the Stretford Paddock.
cheers Andy. Knew it was something along those lines - knocking 40 now and memory is going actually do remember the OT nets now you say it when he attacked the keeper. Vaguely recall the Rapid goal as well. @NEFC - aye CWC was it? wasn't sure.

Doubt he thought that fast, he dived like most players seem to be trained to do nowadays.
In this day and age you must be completely thick to go on the pitch and attack a player. And I agree with Jonah and Wadey, it's one thing being a lad and doing things the way it should be done and it's another having complete muppets knocking about doing this, every club has them though its not a new thing.
He s young and very silly. He was lucky to get 16 weeks. As for Kirkland, he didnt deserve to be pushed in the face, but if his first reaction is to fall over and curl up in a ball, then I hope he never gets attacked in the street...

Maybe you could write about it one day. Put it in the new sitcom yeah. Be amazing.

Quote: nefc wrote in post #62^^ maybe i will. should i be flattered that you remember things i have written on here? were you in 'a firm', the individual?
I think you should, you could set it in the late 90's and use your last what are you wearing today photo to model it on. What with your sarcasm and wit I'm sure it would be great la'
Quote: nefc wrote in post #66^^ are you picking on me here? on the internet? is that what's happening? oh dear!
Sorry mate, I just assumed that seeing as you are usually first to put ya 2p in that you could take it as we'll as give it. No worries now I know you only like things on your terms. I thought you liked banter and humour on here.
^^ what have i given out there? lets have it right, you've got a bug up your arse about me for reasons i can't fathom, and you don't seem to be able to explain. you put up some shite about hoolies and i respond because, to me, the idea of some hoolie code is laughable. then you make some lame dig about something i posted before. you just seem a bad snide.

Calm down la'
You was being sarcastic and I returned the favour. Like I said now I know you don't like it in return ill leave you alone to make little sarcastic remarks in your own. Have a good snigger to yourself.
My favourite part was after he shoved kirkland when he tried to leg it he slipped and decked it, shame he didnt go down harder, cant beat a point and laugh moment
