As a final point on this, interestingly the ban is 5 premier league home games and Marseille is not included in the 5 (although he is still banned for that). Means the next home game is Palace at home with no aways in that time or ability to buy tickets.
I think this is what I keep coming back to, I feel sorry the individual who got banned.
In my eyes, kicked out the game and missing the next home game is probably fair enough given the circumstances, another 5 game sets an interesting precedent. The bans given for passing on tickets worked as...
I mean it consistently that we see someone from our fanbase make a mistake, and suddenly they have committed an act that no one else could even dream of committing.
I'm not saying what he did was right, and of course no one wants to get covered in beer, but the consensus on here is that he...
At Marseille I had pints thrown over me by Marseille, I'm pretty sure one had piss in it and one of their fans spat through the fence at me in my face.
That's way worse than what one of ours did at Ajax, and many people saw it in Marseille, but because the club haven't done anything about it...
I mean this genuinely, is it not boring sitting on here in an echo chamber of everyone saying the ban isn’t long enough and what he did could have killed someone?
He threw a very small bit of a beer, many people threw way more, if you met him you’d probably say he’s unlucky and the club have...
Yeh I'd be inclined to agree with you however, the individual actually hasn't complained that much publicly on Social media. He's shared with me his views on the matter, but most of the noise has been sparked by his friends, myself included.
Just as a side note, the quote he released has already been shared with many club officials, and the FAB; going to SM wasn't his first move I can assure you.
The club have been in communication with the individual and as time goes on, the ban looks more likely to stay, but that does not mean...
Yes, obviously. He got banned, it seems no one else has, and the club posted videos celebrating what he did. How can you not see he's rightfully pissed off?
Absolutely agree it can possibly be dangerous, and should not happen.
Where I am aggrieved is the club tweeting "MORE OF THIS BACK AT THE AMEX PLEASE", but then banning those in the video that did it. Hilariously, the video and post have now been deleted from their socials, but it doesn't...
I recall the Ajax fan barman in the small pub we went to pre match mentioning it's a kinda 2 strikes and the games abandoned rule when it comes to stuff being thrown on pitch.
I'm not going to share the email from the club, or identify the individual by name, but I can 100% confirm one of my friends has been banned.
He was kicked out by an Ajax steward after the goal when the remnants of a pint was chucked and then handed over to Brighton Stewards and Darren Balkham...
