With any luck this woman's callous action will ruin her own life. She deserves all that is coming to her.

Absolute disgrace hope no one purchases it off her - selling it on Gumtree for 1500 quid!

Beckford is meeting the fan which is good.

Seems to me a case of the social media losers have smelled blood & are now desperate to ruin someones life over not much at all.....

Unless I'm going blind, I'd say a different boy first caught the shirt.....so "poor little Tom" must have snatched it off him first....then lost out to the woman & fella in the grey trackie.....

I think the saddest thing in this whole rather pathetic saga are all the pompous pricks on twitter & facebook sending vile abuse & threats.....but hey, what ever floats your boat.....

Some people have no scruples.

My daughter is very bright and also quite confident, so quite often will at a Subway's or at a till to pay for something and on a number of occasions adults have just pushed past her and taken her place in the queue, even though she will be quite clearly holding the money to pay for the stuff in her hand.

Bit harsh, jimmy. There is quite clearly a cut in the video, just at the point you have alluded to, so I would say it is impossible to say what happened after the shirt was thrown and before the adults got their filthy mitts on it.

Whichever boy had it, the woman quite clearly comes in and snatches it off him.

Anyone who would want to pay £1,500 for a smelly football shirt wants their head looking at! Where's the provenance to say it was the ACTUAL shirt Beckford wore anyway? I could advertise one of my old footie shirts and say it was worn by some well known player which was thrown at me at the end of a game.

I would just buy a City shirt, go out for a jog, wipe my armpits with it and sell it as John Fleck's shirt.

With the 55p I would then go on holiday.

Agreed. There was about 5-6 boys fighting over the shirt trying to snatch it out of each other's hands, glad an adult stepped in.

I was watching on TV, 5-6 boys fighting and snatching over it before she stepped in.

From what I can see, one of the lads in the blue trackuit tops caught it and the lad in yellow top tugged it off him.

However you look at It Its an appalling piece of Chavvy behaviour
If she had any decency about her she would have used the clubs channels to reinstate it with whichever lad the club felt had first dibs on it
What age were those kids 6-8 yrs

you could buy one with Fleck's name on it and take it out of the pack and sell it no need to make it smell of sweat he hasn't all year
