  • Ground Regulations: Clubs strictly prohibit away fans in the home end. If discovered, away fans in the home end are usually ejected from the stadium for their own safety. Player Liability: If a player is found to be facilitating this, they would likely face significant action from their club, the Football Association (FA), and the league, as it violates safety guidelines and puts supporters at risk. There you go si ffs ...

  • Doesn't take a lot to light a fuse in such an emotion driven crowd. Going back to the 1960's and the Pringle pullover so called "activists" at many of the 1st division games. As with most posters here, we shouldn't be condoning violence but much of the blame should go to Barry's mates and the stewards, who were implored to remove them by Everton fans. As for Barry himself, OMG - what was he thinking in giving his mates the tickets and, then, blabbering out your whinge about the trouble he'd initiated?...

The lack of realism and understanding in his two comments are breathtaking and speaks of an age where so many of these over-hyped high-ego erm 'players' have lost all touch with reality. In some ways his second comment is worse than the first. The kindest interpretation is that he gave tickets to some mates to watch him play and they got caught up in the excitement of the late late late goal and did a bit of wow jumping around. But that does not tally with some eye witness comments on here and the earlier attempts to get stewards to sort something out. Quite frankly, I find Barry's second statement to be more along the lines of: le crap, I've made a big nigaud here and I'd mieux try and make myself regarder a bit mieux. He did insult the loyal fans for who our club means a hundred times more than this irreflechi prima donna. I wouldn't say that giving tickets to mates is faux. But if some of the 3000 thought that they were gooners a...
