Never mind Viveash, Clough did that to an invader in pretty much the exact same spot
More Headbutt than shoulder charge .. deserves jail tbh if its a headbutt
Football fan behaviour has been pretty shocking since we came back from Covid.
Disagree. There were incidents before eg on Grealish. I think we're more aware of stuff with social media but I think on the whole it's better. We have our share of bellends home and away, but we always have had.
Football arrests 'highest in years'
With fans back into full capacity stadiums this season, BBC Sport has seen figures showing record levels of arrests and increasing disorder.

Definitely seems to be more people trying to enter the field of play, more stuff being thrown on the pitch at players and an increase in racist/hate crime too, as borne out in this report above.Football arrests 'highest in years'

It is concerning for sure.
It’s always uncomfortable viewing when the pitch gets invaded like that, especially when the opposition players are still on the pitch. Just a matter of time until something like this happened. Might be a knife one day.
I see so many, SO MANY, more incidents and dickheads within our own support home and away since fans have returned. Literally a stark difference to before. Covid/“Lockdown” is actually used as an excuse for fucking dickhead behaviour.
Its not just football, but in general. Its like people have forgotten how to behave after being in lockdown for so long.

Personal responsibility but when the leaders of the land have no intention of doing the right thing and when found out make excuses it’s hard to not look forward to some form of anarchy
Bang on.
Huge rise in general selfish & cunty behaviour on the roads, in the shops & in the bars & pubs too.......and no, its not just cos I'm getting old!
Chucking flares on the pitch is the one I really don’t get. In Europe the ‘pyro’ is all in the stands
Probably. Though if he done that anywhere else the police wouldn't even be looking into it.
Also it’s not just the assault it’s supposed to be an offence to enter the field of play. I know it’s different with play off wins
Not even allowed to take in a bottle of water up at the CBS…unless you remove the top
The authorities are going to have to start dishing out massive fines and/or force clubs to play behind close doors (if a player is assaulted on the pitch) to nip this in the bud, otherwise it’s only going to get worse. This situation has been coming for a while
Usually because it’s too much effort to identify who did it. Here it’s about as easy as possible

Unfortunately in my experience even when it is easy to identify who did it they don't want to know.
You are right though, to assault someone in a football stadium when the surveillance and cameras are there is just brain dead.
Fk me. Even a thread on Billy Sharp being assaulted on the pitch isn't without someone trying to make it political. This place is getting beyind parody.
After Hillsborough no politician would even consider it.
That doesn't mean there aren't less controversial draconian measures that can be introduced.
I've nothing against a celebratory pitch invasion but it looks like this one cretin might have ruined it for everyone.

Can anyone explain the logic behind that 'removing the top' thing? I've never understood that.
You can get more whip on it when filled with piss and flung at juvenile Sunderland fans with the lid on.
