FA investigate Arsenal fans after bottles thrown at KdB

[Mr Ed (The Stables)]

This is of the footballing authorities own making by forcing substituted players to leave the field by the shortest route often forcing them to walk past opposing fans especially in an away game.

Imo just go back to the old ways with the referee's timing players on how long it takes for them to leave the pitch and then add that time onto added time.

Seems simple to me plastic bottles and cups this time maybe different objects next time. CTID

disgraceful and pathetic, to be honest its not beyond it to happen at our place at a game.

sometimes players behave in such a way that this sort of thing happens

but to do this to the best player in the prem who is a chilled out guy, ridiculous.

FA investigate that !

Best punishment would be ban sale of alcohol and nothing to go in those cups for a game. Then if it happens again 3 game ban.

Didn’t Ferdinand get hit by a coin at our place? I can't recall the aftermath, but I'd hope we had the grace as a club to apologise. It's a ****'s trick, pegging stuff at players. And it doesn't matter which set of fans it is.

Seems it’s open season on City & our support, first the scousers & Chavs pelting our fans, now the arse at our players, and not a single thing will be done about any of it, all the while the press will be dialling up their rhetoric of us being oil money cheats, they have a lot to answer for, I hope not but can see a response from our support, frustrated by the lack of any intervention, not least because we are quick to ban our own supporters should they cross the line

Even the commentator on Prime disgracefully called them harmless missiles,

I see Arsenal have stated they will impose strict sanctions for those responsible.

Something tells me Kevin will get the blame for scoring and assisting. Just add them to the charges sheet we already have.

The FA have set up panel to investigate after objects thrown at Man City's Kevin de Bruyne.

Panel will be led by Clive Tyldesley, leading figure in global research into harmless missiles

Clive was quoted "It's a great honour to lead this panel. I remember that fabulous night in

Barcelona, however, it's my intention to selflessly investigate this incident and how it may

impact Manchested United or Old Trafford in the future, as well as teams involved last night.

It's important that top European clubs, like Manchester United, show how they can lead the

way in eradicating this behaviour at other clubs. We will hold a press conference shortly at

the Hotel Football, adjacent to Manchester United's Old Trafford ground. Guest speakers will

include ex Manchester United player and celebrated Class of 82 member Gary Neville. Press

& Media packs can be collected @ main reception Old Trafford, home of Manchester United.

Investigation concluded - Manchester City deducted 3 points for aggressive walking by de Bruyne.

There are cameras all over the ground, it shouldn't be hard for them to find people throwing things and to then give them life bans!

 

[DTKOAG]

Luckily for KDB half the crowd had left the stadium

"Harmless."

Clive Tyldesley. Apologist.

What a shame, to blot a long and middling career like that.

Fancy John Motson or Brian Moore caving in like that? No chance.

The scousers have offered Arsenal advise on how to proceed…
