Good. On the WBA incident in particular - I’m not sure there’s anything in life that makes me cringe more than a football fan getting drastically wound up by an opposing player or referee. How can a simple game of football get the better of someone so much?

Agrees. However, Tuesday’s bottle throwing was the result of high stakes on the pitch. Middlesborough fans were very loud at times.

This thing called ‘banter’ nowadays boiled over into their fans not being able to control themselves when we scored both goals late on. I’m of the opinion that Middlesborough fans started the bottles. Some City youth threw some back and pushed stewards to attempt to reach a Middlesborough guy who was stopped, wrestled down by stewards. Then the bottles kept coming our way. A lot was going on with stewards both sides. City fans were being hit with bottles. Others were fending bottles off or saying ‘incoming’ around me. I was 12 metres away from our perimeter. I hope the offenders get what’s coming to them (Both sides)

Didn’t see the WBA incident but I’m with you regarding Middlesbrough. The bottles started from the home fans and were thrown back by Cov which is no excuse. Wonder if Doug has called Jack Rudoni into his office……

It blows my mind that someone might think ‘my nerves can’t take this tension, so I’ll throw something or be a gobshite outside’

Stuff like this is tribal and pathetic. Get them banned and miss the season we finally complete the redemption arc.

Football is pure emotion, we all feel it, but we don’t all revert to caveman behaviours.

Only idiots throw things onto the pitch and at players, they deserve a ban.

We’ve probably all had one too many at a game but normal people don’t throw things at other people.

Disgraceful behaviour to be honest, get ‘em gone.

People on Facebook whinging at Doug
They need to get a grip, why defend idiots?

Footballers are entertainers, they don’t deserve to have scumbags who feel like the can throw stuff at them when doing their job.

Banter, throwing the ‘Vs’ or even swearing at players, fine. It’s a part of the game, not throwing coins or vapes at people.

Nope they woz their and it was all boro
Even at the West Brom game it appears
I have to say the police response at cov was instant the one at boro was non existent

Grant for Albion is a prick, but I'm not sure that's an excuse for throwing vapes at him.
Wasn't at Boro but my mate said it was bad from the boro fans but I'm not sure'they started it' is going to get anyone off the hook.

Though the modernday police method of letting incidents play out then watching cctv footage before getting involved is a dereliction of duty in my book.

Coppers we’re standing pointing at City fans instead of getting Boro fans who were chucking bottles and stuff. The bottles on the pitch were from home fans after Ellis ran into the corner to celebrate

Absolutely and I’ve no doubt from the videos I’ve seen who caused it and who are most at fault it was having a go at the statement as if doug should have blamed grant for provocation and then said our fans only threw back what was thrown at them

The ones at West Brom should be banned for life.

The ones at Middlesborough isn't as clear cut as Doug is making out. Their fans tried to get over the netting when they scored at 2-2. So when it went 3-2 some of our lot returned the favour (then suitably flapped it when they realised they're a bunch of wet wipes that aren't going to do anything). This started the bottle/vape throwing from Middlesborough fans. As a middle aged man, if something is thrown at me then I'm not throwing it back. But if I was young impressionable teen/young adult, my response might be different. Doesn't make them in the right, but Doug making out like it's as clear as kids just throwing stuff, isn't a true reflection.
