200k fine....

[cheltenhamlion]

Agreed on that Andy. We didn't offer a whiff of resistance to them playing the media with the "woe is Olbiyun" line at any point. Now is the time to chalk up one all.

[PaulWinch again]

What about Blackpool or the countless other pitch invasions? How about the Preston invasion where a player was attacked?

[KRS]

Invoice the Baggies for £200k due to the damage to the ground, facilities, first aid administered and compensation to fans injured from flying seats, and the ongoing cleaning process removing the stench of their inbred fans infecting our magnificent stadium. Eye for an eye.

[Risso]

We should have just racially abused all their players*.  The fine would have been about £20K then.




*We shouldn't really, just making a point.

[PeterWithe]

I reckon this is sabre rattling and will be quietly squashed if we appeal.

[frankmosswasmyuncle]

They cannot simply ignore all of the other pitch invasions - for whatever reason - if they are making a point about a particular pitch invasion as some kind of precedent! Which they seem to be doing.
Bonkers!

[olaftab]

£200000 I don't give a shit. We smashed smethwick and walked on into the semi and now the final.... Priceless😋

[DeKuip]

UNFAIR

*We shouldn't really, just making a point.

Exactly what I thought though.

[Toronto Villa]

If they want to fine us fair enough. But they better do exactly the same wherever else it occurs. And we know they won't. Wankers

[wittonwarrior]

Hope they go back in time and fine Hereford ,  Liverpool, Everton and West Ham for Wembley, Bloose against us, Manchester City home fa cup tie against Spurs etc etc total lunacy by the FA.

[Clampy]

I haven't got a problem with the fine, it's just so excessive.

[clash city rocker]

It just goes to confirm what we already know. That the F.A are wank.totally and utterly wank.They are a great pile of steaming wank. Fuckin completely wank.All in all a useless organisation of total wank.

[SashasGrandad]

We just need a suitable song which mocks the FA - which we can all sing as the Villa do a lap of honour with the cup.  The FA have probably improved our chances of winning - as it will put them in an awkward position when they tie the claret and blue ribbons to the cup.

[dave.woodhall]

Absolute hypocrisy and double standards. They hype up the magic of the cup and what it means to the fans, then when we give them evidence they can't run away quick enough.
