[Football] Idiot who threw the bottle (etc...)

I'd like to point out another important fact. Most people, when drunk, can be a bit disinhibited for a while as the inhibitory centres are suppressed by this general anaesthetic (which is what it is) first. If you are happy you may get irritatingly lively. If a bit sad, you may get morose, or 'your my best mate'y. But this is all 'directed' (you have control). After that, other parts of the brain switch off, and you become clumsy, falling overy, vomity (careful to not inhale!), and eventually the respiratory centre says 'no' (at which point you stop breathing). Alcohol is not a good anaesthetic because the dose necessary for surgical anaesthesia is too close to the respiratory arrest dose. That, and the hangover.
What alcohol does not do is evoke psychotropic personality changes. It does not 'turn' normal people into *****. What it does do is allow people to think they can behave like *****. But to think like this (brace yourself) you have to be a **** to begin with. Yes. A **** who keeps his cuntishness under a hat when sober (most of the time - but not if he thinks he can get away with it) chooses to allow his cuntishness free reign because he thinks his 'drunkenness' is a get out of gaol free card. Guess what? It isn't. ****.
While I'm pharmacologically at it.....coke won't zombify you. If it is good quality it simply turns you into a smug cocky bore, so in love with the sound of your own voice, and indeed your general exquisiteness, you are practically purring. The drug that can crank up the agression is speed (the clue is in the name), which was popular in the late 70s, but I suspect has gone out of fashion, correct me if I'm wrong.
I get quite irritated by people who blame their cuntishness on the drink. It used to be mitigating in cases of domestic abuse. Not any more. Why use it to mitigate nobbery at football? I think if it were more widely accepted that drink does not turn decent people into *****, the cuntery might diminish. A bit. After all, being a **** is never a good look.

Fella behind me in block 135 was apoplectic with rage at the end and was screaming at City that they were "****ing Scouse c**t5". Still can't work that one out. He repeated this several times whilst shoving in to me. I think he was actually trying to get to them. I just moved to the side to get away from him.
Then outside saw a couple of fights, the first was several so called Albion fans throwing punches at one City fan. Then another at the top of Wembley way with a lad in front of me uttering the wonderful line "go on Brighton". I told him to grow up. He looked maybe 15. I got the "come on then" from him. Dear oh dear.
All in all pretty sad to witness such pathetic behaviour.

A couple of similar incidents near me, sitting/standing related. All very petty and fuelled by alcohol
We had the same.

Interesting observation there.
We were in the £45 seats near the front of Block 535. 33 of us, all season ticket holders. I recognised a fair few STHS from the Amex seating near us. There was no problems in our block whatsoever. Perhaps we were lucky? We are a mixed age group, so it was nice to sit and watch the game in comfort. We had a great view.
Did everyone in the expensive seats in the lower tier have to stand whether they wanted to or not?
We did witness some drunken stone island seagulls having a go at two city fans outside. No punches were thrown, the city fans kept walking, ignoring them. Stone Island boys walked away, happy that they had "Shown 'em".

I’d argue the same is true of cocaine as booze.
If you’re not an aggressive person normally then a couple of lines of packet aren’t going to change that. If you’re an aggressive prick who is looking for an excuse to kick off then coke is that excuse. With how prevalent cocaine is in youth football culture id guess there’s a lot of people who were sitting next to or behind someone on coke and didn’t realise.
I agree with this. Partly because coke is cut with all manner of cheap shit these days; almost certainly going to contain some speed in it.
To think cocaine was once the preserve of models and Duran Duran....now its chavs at football. Whilst I fully support social mobility this is not what I had in mind.
bullshit
I don’t think they cut it with this.

Block 541 there was there three guys sat in front of us who were very quiet during the first half and then didnt reappear after half time. There was also a strong herbal smell if you know what I mean coming from behind us somewhere. Everyone appeared to be having a good time although someone or some people were having a a bit more of a good time than others in appears.

Which bit?
No.
The lads in front of us suggested we should all stand when the game kicked off. I pointed out that if I’d wanted to stand, I’d have paid for a cheaper seat. Everyone around just told them to sit down and to their credit, they did. I don’t think it spoilt anyone’s day!

Don't blame you. When we did the "Stand up for the Albion" I wondered if it was just the upper stands as the lower were already standing?
We were in £80 seats in block 125. Thought that would be good for Grandson and myself as I cannot stand for long periods. However, 4 adults 40 to 70 right in front of us stood up at most points in the game. We never saw the goal, the headbutt or Murray's near miss.

Sorry to hear that. That is disappointing.
In as much as using an altered state as an excuse is a cop out, which is what you mean I assume, sure. If you're hell-bent, then any excuse will do.
Incidentally, are you looking at me in a funny way?
