Some people take the game way too seriously. As Shankley said " Football is not a matter of life or death, it's much more important then that".

 
And it was the biggest load of bollocks that ever came out of Shank's mouth.
 
Absolutely scumbucket behavior, fair play to Grealish how he dusted himself down, didn't roll around like a tool, got up and got on with getting the winner, he's gone up hugely in my estimation.
 
It's lucky too for the bastard that attacked him that the steward got there before Glen Whelan who looked he wanted to burst him. LOL

What is needed is a moat around the pitch, though it may lead to more incidents like this

Whelan and Tammy Abraham looked like they both wanted to kill him

Newcastle were well ahead of the curve on this when they allowed Raoul Moat's ashes to be sprinkled around the St. James's Park pitch. 

Moaty is still missed. I hope he's up there now on that riverbank in the sky, fishing and eating his chicken and beans for lunch, washed down with a can of lager.

Gazza's here, Moaty, Gazza's here.

Yeah, you would swear the pitch invader kicked Grealish in the head, or something like that.
"Tell them to get out there and give it all they got and win just one for the Zipper. I don't know where I'll be then, Doc," he said, "but I won't smell too good, that's for sure."

The quote was tongue-in-cheek, Proud seemed to grasp the intent with which it was delivered. It was the greatest quote every made on football because it grasped both its importance and complete lack of importance at the same time. It is mad how often it is taken out of context.

Bielsa asked about the Greealish attack in his presser today. What a man...

The person who does the thing we saw yesterday expresses a series of frustrations which are not necessarily linked to football. Because the more satisfied you are with your personal life, the less you need to do this kind of act.

You have to laugh at this standard line when something like this happens - "they aren't a real football/Birmingham City fan"
 
How do you know? He maybe has a season ticket and has had one for years.

I like this idea. Put obstacles above the moat they must traverse as well. Could be like an episode of Takeshi's Castle where the winner gets to dig a footballer of choice in the back of the head.

Although I wouldn't say it myself I get the "Not a real football fan" comments. He's a man who clearly does not care about being detrimental to the sport as a whole, and could have single-handedly sent the game back years if the cages and other things suggested are brought back to grounds. Case could be made that he's certainly not a "real" football fan if he has caused such a negative impact on the game, and created a negative stereotype of "real" football fans from what he's done.

Because he obviously wasn’t thinking about the consequences or caring about the image it gives to his club. You could even argue he cared too much, enough not to stop and think that his intense hatred for Villa could destroy his life.
In reality, it wasn’t that either. He obviously has other problems in life, as Bielsa said.
This idea that fans who do things that other fans don’t condone, can’t be ‘real’ fans is a nonsense. It is like there is some sort of rule book for being a fan. Is he not a real ‘man’ either? Because I am sure a ‘real’ man wouldn’t attack someone blindsided and throw a punch? Or not a real (insert job title here) because this gives his profession a bad name? Or is he a real Brummie even? Bringing his city/area/village into disrepute!
 When you pay your money and you emotionally invest in a team, you’re a fan. In this instance, it just so happens that the fan happens to have been a f**king idiot.

Given the police murdered 96 people at a football ground, I would feel safer with none at all there.

They should ban those ridiculous looking peaky blinder style caps, at least that would be one positive to come from this whole episode.

I don’t know why lads wear them, they may as well put on a neon sign that says “I like illegal drugs”.

Not a real fan argument doesn't stand up.  Plenty of "real" fans like causing trouble, they go most/every week and act the maggot and want to fight.
 
I was in Birmingham a year ago, Birmingham v Villa was on the day I was leaving so we went down the Irish Club in Digbeth to watch it before going to the airport.  It was full of Blues, not one Villa fan and I can honestly say, the vast majority of them were absolute headbangers.  I wasn't surprised Grealish got attacked, the mob in the Irish club that day were nuts, atmosphere in the place was insane.
We'll never die, we'll never die, we'll keep the Green Flag flying high......Shamrock Rovers will never die, we'll keep the Green Flag Flying high. 19 Leagues and 25 Cups.....
