The comment that if we got to half time without conceding we would be OK is spot on. I said to the chap sitting next to me that at least we had not expended much energy so we can step it up after the restart.
Watching MOTD2 tonight, Lawro appeared to be much less shrill on the end of game shenanigans to the point where I reckon he had been advised to wind his neck back in.

Good to read something that more reflected the game I enjoyed on Saturday.

A few morons ripped up some seats and threw them below. Criminal damage and ABH.
3 morons ran on the pitch to goad Myhill.
Throw the book at them.
Idiots who ran on the pitch prior to final whistle - just ban them from SF / Final.
People who ran on the pitch at full time - no problem to me. It was an outpouring of relief that there is life back in the club.

What a sensible post.
Pulis quick to say his players were in danger - all they got was the piss taken out of them.
Does not mention danger to Villa fans who could have died had a seat hit them from high above.
-
Well that's unfair on Pulis. He's called for the West Brom fans who ripped seats up to be banned for life.
I also understand why he was concerned for the safety of his players at the end.

Spot on, Rob.

Been said before of course but considering a fierce local derby days after the previous one and then to allow all day drinking because of tv schedules is reprehensible. I saw people bladdered when I was on way to ground at 3pm. Game should have been a 12.00 kick off at the very least
Its not condoning any thuggary but its what happens when we sell our soul to the TV paymasters

There's been one or two occasions in the last few years, at other clubs admittedly, where a goalkeeper has been kicked or punched so there's risk and it only takes one idiot. So I can see his point too and we would have said the same had the roles been reversed.

Is the precedent for this that dickhead who goaded Enkleman at The Sty? Did he get a banning order,or a jail sentence?
Appreciate one was during the game,and one after, but principle should stand.

I agree with you Dave spot on.

Yes and it was thoroughly deserved.

And freedom of Small Heath.

Great article and good post rob.
Mark Lawrenson's a whining annoyance, I got back and obviously wanted to re-watch the game only to have to listen to his drivel throughout the match. Complete with as you mentioned ridiculous comments about being back in the 80's... I wish we were so I didn't have to listen to his co-commentary.

Fucking hell, that's inhuman.

I know they were poor matches but 1996, 2000 and 2010 have been wiped from your memories Dave?
