I’m just off to clear my browser history......

That’s down to the justice system to sort out, I stand by my view, that inflicting draconian punishment on innocent parities, for the actions of others, they have no control over, is wrong. If a club had been advised of persons breaking the law and they then didn’t take reasonable action to ensure they couldn’t enter the ground, then that would be different and they may then be inviting action. What if a group of fans (using the term fan, loosely) were stood outside of the clubs grounds and, for instance, racially abused the opposition players (or fans) as they were getting off their coach, should the club be punished for that, should they be punished for fans posting racist or otherwise offensive comments on a SM platform? Where does the responsibility of the club and the individual begin and end?

Without knowing the context it’s hard to say, whilst that’s still punishing the innocent, it’s a one off game and not a points deduction - which I believe should only happen if the club and not its fans, break laws or football authority rules.

That’s still punishing players, investors, the Manager and the vast majority of innocent fans, not a method of ‘justice’ I agree with.

Totally disagree, why should the club, players and innocent fans be punished fo the action of potentially, one person, who may not even be a fan of the club. It’s the sort of thing that could be used to deny a club promotion or ensure they were relegated. That smacks of the school teacher who can’t control the unruly pupil and gives the whole class a detention. If anyone breaks the law at a football match, CCTV, TV camera’s, mobile phones, police spotters, stewards and other witnesses are all available to be used to find and deal with the offender(s) and not just randomly punish the innocent.

Not working, but bloody hell, who funds these sort of websites, must take 100’s of hours of work to put all that data in.

And has huge problems, they also use the P word to describe their neighbours, who they really aren’t keen on, this is obviously the areas where the Muslims aren’t a majority.

Not quite sure what fining a club would do, unless they have failed to act on previous incidents and not banned the offenders. Other than that, how is any club supposed to stop an individual or a group of individuals shouting out anything at a game, they are powerless to act before, only after the event.

I blame the OP for this....

Can anyone explain a part of the rules to me. In the 5th minute an Irish player blocked a pass with his hand and didn’t gather the ball, conceded a penalty for that. Later in the game, an Irish player was kicking to clear and an All Black blocked the clearance by raising both arms above his head and the ball hit his arm, no penalty. Is there a difference if you are kicking or throwing?

Heard nothing about this, given the size of BS, one would assume there would be plenty of reporting of this, were it to be true,

I have never been to a professional rugby match, but after watching that on the telly, I will be going to see a game before too long....

A thumping and the Wurzels to round things off, proper night at the Gate.

I just felt old, now it’s verging on decrepit......

Bristol kicking not the best
