Can't be too critical though cos it's a massive improvement on the shit tip of last season. You never know though, Curle might just land one of his ambitious transfer targets and he could make the difference.

Also that the game was minutes away from being called off. They should charge the lad for the cost of the fire service having to unnecessarily come out. I'm sure they will have had better things to do.

I am in my sixtieth year and have led an unblemished adult life without breaking any laws.

However, when I was sixteen I was as daft as a brush, stupid,not a care in the world and hate to say it, could have done something like this.

We need to look back at what we were like at sixteen before we condemn.

Having said that, if one of my kids did it I would be all for having them strung up.

Can't be any fairer than that.

Lucky it wasn't another Bradford. And if it had been would people still be using the naivety of youth as an excuse ?

I don't believe you. You've never sped on a motorway after a particularly crap Tuesday night away performance? I know I have.

Wasn't there but reports I have read said it was behind the stand, not in it.

A bit like me letting off fireworks in my back garden as opposed to my kitchen.

Very valid point, only difference being I would like to think I am intelligent enough not to rely on a jobsworth in a hi viz to tell me when it's windy.

Life time ban for the wee doughnut I guess, make an example of him etc What a tube www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/compe...ombs-in-grounds.html
