    One idiot in a crowd off 3,000+ a disgrace to the West brom fans and the club! Should be banned ! Brunt was about to give his shirt to a young fan as he was struck by the coin but credit to Brunt for still giving it to the young supporter after he's anger at the coin throwing fan!

    One of our "fans" today was literally punching the players tunnel as they were going in. Potentially Worse as he had no idea who was on the receiving end!

    I wonder if that was the kid who kept storming over there only to be moved by the stewards every time. He was so desperate to get there, he was so angry, so full of rage and frustration.

    What a cowardly pea brained thing to do.
    Worse still to one of your own who has served the club for years.
    There seems to be an element of these lumpen goons at all clubs these days

    Maybe he is the fan who was apparently asked outside for some fisty cuffs by Jonnie Jackson?

    The alleged thrower is the young lad in the background to the right, blue cap, aquascutum scarf, video of him on Twitter being taken to task by other Albion fans

    Agree, but media reaction is WAY WAY over the top. The dark days of the 70's are back, put fences up put netting up, close down ends, he could have been killed !!! Horror shock more Horror.

    One stupid twat does something and the reaction is ridiculous, ok compounded by a couple of other idiots at Chelsea. The CCTV will almost certainly find them, and 3 or 4 people out of hundreds of thousands who went to a game Saturday will be sorted out. Hardly warrants the Media attention. There,s a lot worse going on in our country, how many immigrants committed a crime on Saturday, far worse than coin throwing ? If the media then turned on all immigrants making out it was an issue that relates to them all, there would be shouts of RACISM and disgust. So, let's keep it in proportion, !

    Good shot.

    The picture is funny. Half are shouting abuse (The kid with the awful hair at the front is the most humorous, watch him on the video) and half want his shirt!

    There was a clip of the referee and lino picking up coins at Stamford Bridge. The nearby supporters jumped up and shouted at them, gesticulating as if to say "but they were celebrating in front of us, what do you expect!?" which is the bit that irritates me the most. There's a mentality with some supporters that they have a right to act like rabid dogs, cos, you know, it's football. And that contingent is far more than a handful.

    Aggro was pretty normal in the 70s - you just accepted it. Some of the behaviour was vile and there was plenty of racist chants.
    The world has changed and there are far less knobheads in the crowd.

    You are right, there was trouble at almost every game back then in the 70's and early to mid 80's. Introduction of all seater stadiums helped to quell that but has, in my opinion wrecked the atmosphere at matches. There isn't one intimidating atmosphere in English football now whereas back then there were loads.
