Some lovely results this week. That nob head who let his son run on the pitch the other day at Spurs has been banned for three years…..as has the boy 😂

Hopefully he grows up to hate his old man for what he let him do. Great result.

Then this last night



When are people going to teach kids to have some respect for themselves rather than putting them on TV with shit home made signs?

Proper cunts

Think the ban is harsh especially for the boy. That being said shirt begging is an appalling development. If I had the talent to be a footballing God I think I would deliberately give the shirt to the kid next to him.

The rules are clear. You invade the pitch you get a ban. I was even thinking twice before the last game at the lane. I waited until there was enough on before I thought “fuck it, they can’t ban us all”
 
I think shirt begging is a bit pathetic actually, it just seems a bit crass to me. The last couple of times I’ve been to watch Spurs there have been a few kids with begging signs in my section. They were all after Sonny’s shirt.

Couldn’t agree more.
 
Horrible part of the modern game and society.

Used to be really nice to see a player give their shirt to a kid in the crowd after the game but the signs need burning.

I was the same, I was tut-tutting the supporters that initially went onto the pitch, then realised the stewards were helping some people with mobility issues. You've never seen me move so fast, and I managed to get to the half way line, grabbed some of the turf and then went back to my seat :)

Surely the old man who tried to use his crutch to snatch the shirt out of mid air and stop the kid getting it is is the absolutely worse cunt and needs to die in a fire.
 
I don't see a problem with kids holding up a sign asking for a shirt. I guess the real problem is why on earth do the TV companies think people at home really want to see these kids holding up the signs

The coverage encourages it though along with parents who don't know any better.

On a more positive note, is it just me or are half and half scarfs now a bit less of a thing than a few years back? Maybe just as we're not getting as many tourists come to think of it
