QPR fan confronting Birmingham City fans who had allegedly been throwing coins is dispatched with a single punch. If you are going to launch yourself on the field of play in this fashion to 'sort things out' you have to last a bit longer than this don't you  |

Saw it on Twitter yesterday. Absolutely pissed myself laughing. You can't give it the big un and get decked within seconds. He looked a total melt

The fact brum fans are cheering and applauding the situation just goes too show how many dickheads follow that club. No surprise with all the brum clubs throwing coins though specially with how much Dave is handing out in benefits these days.

And of all the clubs to try to be Billy Big Bollocks against.... Surely if someone asked you to list the 5 worst clubs to do something like that against, Blues would be in there. |

Got to say that's a fair punch from the Blues southpaw.
Suck on that son.

I would say any set of away fans in the top two (or four??) divisions would react exactly the same! |

If that had been a Stoke Fan throwing the punch against a visiting away fan, he'd have got loads of cheers... As others have stated it's the QPR twats fault for giving it 10men and going down like a fairy. |

Both will more than likely get banning orders. "all the brum clubs throwing coins" ? Two individuals have thrown coins ( assuming the Butland story is true). I am sure that the overwhelming majority of both baggies and Villa fans deplore those incidents just as much as the rest of us. Generalisations about the fans of other clubs are just wrong. All clubs, including ours, have a small number of fans who, in certain situations, can do stupid things. |

You're right of course Malcolm but I think what he meant was that the reason the QPR nump was on the pitch in the first place was because the Brum fans had been throwing coins....allegedly. Which is technically all the Brum clubs albeit a small section of their support. |

Generalisations about the fans of other clubs are just wrong Not so. Generalisations and stereotypes exist because they are based on years of observations and behaviour. As an example the recent incident at Millwall was not a surprise because generally they have a reputation that is well deserved for being not in the state of mind to take messing around and authorities attacking fans of pensionable age. They have other character and behaviour traits that would be fair to say that "Millwall are a bunch of nutters". Most Millwall fans would not object and would take it as a compliment. If you have travelled the footballing landscape you would know that football fans may have things in common but the culture of their town, city, people, community, economy, history, politics, and other factors strongly influence what they are all about. If the Brum/QPR incident had involved Stoke fans, the rest of the footballing world would not be 'surprised" as it would be playing to form and meeting stereotype expectations. You cannot whitewash years of culture and behaviour just because of a few convenient heady years in the prawn-eating sandwich league. |

OK - and if that's true it's deplorable, but as you say, it will still only be a tiny proportion of blues fans throwing coins. |

I know that mate and I'm not in any way condoning it or the ridiculous reaction of the two 'pugilists' Anyway I know its off topic and you may have covered it elsewhere but have you been involved with, or is there any feedback from that shambolic and potentially dangerous emergency broadcast on Saturday? |

You cannot whitewash years of culture and behaviour just because of a few convenient heady years in the prawn-eating sandwich league. I completely disagree. Of course there are variations between clubs in incidents of disorder, % of fans arrested etc (although far fewer of those variations are statistically significant than the media would often have you believe) but that doesn't mean that generalisations about the fans of clubs at the "top" of those tables are justified (leaving aside the fact that even those stats often do not correlate with the stereotypes). Even in those clubs with the highest incidents of disorder the number of fans involved is a tiny % of the total. Your extraordinary generalisations about Millwall fans are a case in point, and I can assure you that the most Millwall fans would not take it as a compliment. I am not trying to "whitewash years of culture and behaviour" (whatever that means) but merely to state that generalisations about the fans of other clubs are as wrong as some of those which have been peddled about Stoke fans in the past. |

I think the club might get a bit of a caning from the HSE. But in all honesty it seems like they need a kick up the jacksie in many areas of off field activities. |

Why Blues were angryMight as well read a first hand account of the day rather than make assumptions. We've been in the same situation, and treated worse. Who is going to show unity? Anyone? Or are we all locked in our ivory towers on the supporters group advocacy association (toothless grovelling division) agenda?

I can assure you that the most Millwall fans would not take it as a compliment. OK. I don't think you have ever sat in a pub having a beer with proper Millwall fans discussing the sport and its culture. Your perspective of football is as if it was netball, badminton, or ladies hockey. |

Don't know the story behind it, but I hate people who fight at football matches (hooligans). Just seems a guaranteed way to get a lifetime ban and can be a massive waste of money just to land a couple of punches on someone who supports a different team. Fucking stupid.
