    Same debate as to whether it is Common Assault or Battery. Whichever when it hit someone, it is an offence.

    It is whether the police can be presented with enough evidence to charge the individual.

    The issue is that it is an offence to hurl an incendiary whether it hits someone or not.

    The psychological trauma the little child will have experienced, needs to be taken into account.

    If you sit in the bottom tier of the Kop, do you always have the fear that some missile could hit you on the head!

    It is against the rules that the club has in place, and the individual should face the full consequences of their behaviour.

    Just think what would have happened if it had actually hit a player!

    I know Fordy's a one off but to post "Apart from sleeping with some girls I shouldn't have" sounds dodgy to me ;).

    Yes I was telling the wife about it, certainly for a couple of minutes fans around us though it would kick off.

    I would have him in the stocks and throw missiles at him as well as banning him for life.

    And you would be the first to complain (and blame the club for delays) if everyone entering the stadium was strip searched, which is the only way to stop them. What lesson has the club to learn ? How can they physically stop some idiot who wants to create havoc, whatever that havoc is.

    A lifetime ban and a criminal record is the answer, but you can't hold the club responsible for the actions of one moron. Once he was in with it, no-one could have stopped him.

    Specifically, what more should the club be doing in your opinion? Sniffer dogs? Intimate body searches? What are you thinking they need to do to eradicate the smoke bomb issue.

    He isn't bothered. Any thing that reflects badly on the club is absolute manna to him and his love of shadenfreuder.

    So my analysis of this flares situation is-

    You have to know where to buy them.

    You have to go there to buy one.

    Then you have to remember to take it to the game.

    Then you have to sit there working out what would be the most impactful point in time to launch it into the air.

    Then you have to launch it.

    It makes me wonder why?

    That's all just why?

    That's precisely where I thought it came from too. Unfortunately, that doesn't necessarily mean that whoever threw it sits there but it might help those looking at CCTV.

    I’m presuming they tried to get it on the pitch? Not very well thought out. Kind of highlights the intellect of the perpetrator.
