I was thinking about this today. Did the club apologise for overreaction or inappropriate investigations or whatever was the cause of the ban being overturned by an independent commission?

And then said "Maybe it's best for everyone to put this to bed now as a bad episode. It's done and I doubt very much any apology from certain people will be forthcoming."

Been a while since I read the commission's findings but from what I remember they found it impossible to tell exactly what happened, but don't believe the brighton fan physically attacked the palace fan (in the palace fan's report he only said he feared an attack, not that one had happened), but...

I don't particularly have a problem with it. I just think this idea that it's impossible not to have a go at the gloating palace fan, or that it takes a rare sort of person to just walk out does a disservices to the many fans that did just walk out.

It seems like some of you are arguing that water is wet, and the other that the sky is blue. I have no comment on Hebbard's position. But I do agree an important aspect of this whole situation is that the club have learned from their mistake. The report referenced the change in procedure, so it...
