Good for them and hopefully a lesson to be learnt it is so easy especially at 14 to “just” throw a stone. I don’t know who caught him but if it’s old bill and it’s acted on the minimum for the kid is a police caution and a three year ban.

One of his friends recorded it,and his Mum saw it on his phone,and alerted the parents of the others involved.Absolutely ruined the coffee morning apparently.

I bought a new Stone Island winter jacket a couple of weeks ago, I’m a bit worried to wear it now in case I start lobbing bricks around.

We’ll I’m glad, and glad it wasn’t the cops a 14 year old with Sky Blue blood getting a three year ban would cripple him. Both my grandsons at the moment live and breathe Sky Blue a ban would mortify them.
Perhaps you could explain to him exactly what a ban is. Can’t go within a certain defined area of a ground when a game is on three hours before and three hours after home or away in England, Scotland or Wales includes internationals. I’m not sure if you still have to hand in your passport too or report to a police station when internationals are on, I know you used to. It is pretty stringent.

Without going into too much detail my dad got a criminal record for some shenanigans at a Cov game when he was about 14. Nothing major but nonsense like last week.
It massively affected him in later life when he was due compensation for a life changing injury from being attacked in the street. Instantly halved the compensation, which he needed as he’s unable to work due to the injury.
There’s so much more to it than just a football ban. It’s not worth it.

And you have to go into toilet cubicles in pairs. Don't forget that bit.

And there’s another consideration a criminal record for violence which is what it would be you could struggle to be allowed into the U.S. and I think Aussie. A mate of mine wanting to take his kids to Disney was turned down his offence was fighting at football years ago.
And I know three lads who went over for a Ricky Hatton fight were denied entry and held in a dodgy New York jail until their return flight.

Just do what I do and buy plain clothes from George at Asda and slap a Stone Island badge on the sleeve.
I've got Stone Island boxers and flip flops too
(Legal disclaimer: I don't actually do this...)

Coventry City have issued the following statement:
"Coventry City Football Club have reviewed the allocation which had been given to Birmingham City for the game against the Sky Blues on Tuesday 23 November, following advice of West Midlands Police.
Birmingham City had been given an allocation of 5,000, but this has been reviewed due to additional safety considerations for the game raised by West Midlands Police, following incidents at the Sky Blues' home game against Derby County in October.
The allocation for Birmingham City will now be capped at 4,076. We apologise for any inconvenience caused to Birmingham City supporters."
The Club has now sold out of our 4,076 ticket allocation for this fixture

Hope the guy who ran over and kicked the fan is proud of himself and the others who have directly led to this lost income

Oh and the police and club for not managing the situation as they should. Fundamentally though if fans would behave it wouldn’t happen

It’s a bit small time really from all concerned to give a club tickets and then reduce the number.

Now you will get some travel without tickets paying on the night in our seats.
Assuming the club don't make the fixture all ticket and no pay on the gate, resulting in more lost revenue.

So our plod signed off on one number. Saw how shit his colleagues were and then said we can’t handle it.
Shambles.

Walking back through Tesco car park after the game one derby fan had decided it was a good idea to start goading a group of about 10 cov fans, brave or stupid whatever but he got a bit of a slap then pissed off, fair enough.
What I couldn’t get my head around was this bloke probs late 30s with 2 kids under the age of 10, getting involved, shouting at the fan doing the pathetic pretend to run towards him and then stop, the kids were visibly shook up, little girl started crying.

Either that, or perhaps he has prevented an even bigger disaster against brum as clearly we were unable to distance a pocket full of idiots even when there was a 1500 seat exclusion zone.

True I’d also add that the club hasn’t had to deal with this for a few years so are really dependent on the expertise of the police and they may well feel a little let down

I imagine we’ll get reduced at Derby now on “police advise”

Probably not because they only give 2700 anyway. They can handle big crowds unlike us.

Yep. This is it. The fact there are no shuttles to the ground from the station is an absolute shambles.

Didn’t it happen the second trip to Sunderland? I know it was the away game but Birmingham have had theirs reduced for no part in it, WMP will be having their say…

It was but that was after trouble in the previous match up there, rather than what happened at the Ricoh.
There's been no trouble at 95% of CCFC away matches in the past 10 years. Look at Hull and Blackburn. Decent followings and no issues.
