Billy Sharp Assaulted + Others in Fans Pitch Invasions

[Jay Jay de Wolf]

Caught by the Sky Sports camera after the game when the Nottingham Forest fans invaded the pitch after their penalty shootout playoff victory
against Sheffield Utd. An idiot just ran straight up to Billy Sharp standing on the side line and knocked him completely off his feet.

What a **** hope they ID him!

 

[Newbridge Wolf]

Will end up with the foreign style plastic screens going up around the pitch.

And there were those on here defending the cokeheads not so long ago. Antisocial behaviour is on the rise again, especially at away games with said cokeheads acting like no one else around them exists.

This assault on Billy could have happened to any Sheff Utd player including our own MGW after the game.
No control by stewards at all for the safety and security of all the players when these pitch invasions happen.

I've just seen this, he could have bloody killed him. This idiot needs serious jail time and hopefully Sharp is fine

Good. Trouble at Huddersfield last night too, one fan carried out the Luton end covered in blood. That Leicester fan attacking players at Forest earlier in the season. Saw something earlier about the Millwall fan attacked outside St Andrews the other month is still in a coma. Seems to be getting more open and regular again.

 

[glorybox]

Plenty of others could be seen walking onto the pitch holding flares. Hope they ban them too. Idiotic in a crowded environment.

 

[SA Wolf]

Cowardly attack on Sharp. Ban Forest from promotion with fans like that. Harsh, but nothing else seems to stop idiots from acting like thugs.

 

[Stratman Wolves]

That was the last pitch invasion in the football league. Gonna be like North America, ropes and security everywhere

 

[Macman]

I despise pitch invasions with a passion. I only support it in a friendly way such as a team winning the title where fans can calmly come on the pitch to celebrate after the players have left the pitch. But pitch invasions like last night, and what we’ve seen recently, are dangerous for the opposing players who must all feel so deflated and dejected only to see jubilant fans brushing past them and in a lot of cases, goading them. And of course you get the occasion idiot like last night’s assault.

Sadly, you cant stop it unless fences are brought back in. And no one wants that to come back.

thankfully the police have arrested that guy from last night and Forest are saying he will be banned for life. Lets hope he serves a few years in prison first….

 

[TheConcourse]

Don’t drop the soap you big lump. Shocking that.

 

[Kashmire Hawker]

A 31 year old has been arrested overnight by Nottinghamshire Police for Assualt - Forest have stated he will instantly slapped with a Life Ban.

Blades Manager Paul Heckingbottom said Sharp needed stitches as a result.

Hope he gets a Life Ban FULL STOP and not just for 3 years as standard!

Imagine being a 31 year old forest fan. You’ve probably never seen your club in the top flight, then when they finally make it back, you still can’t see them in the top flight because you’re an odious cretin and have been banned from going.

 

[Scallywolf]

That excuse for a human being was not a football fan.

Nothing but a thug who will spend jail time and never be allowed inside a sports venue for the rest of his life.

Thank goodness he was caught.

 

[Matt]

What an absolute ****er. Hopefully he gets some prison time to go with his lifetime ban. Absolutely shocking that is.

Also, Rotherham fans invaded the pitch at Gillingham when they got promoted and it ended up in a mass brawl. Pitch invasions have always happened when clinching promotion or winning the league (we did if after beating QPR and getting promoted under Mick, and after beating Rotherham to claim the League One championship under KJ) but they were both good natured with regards to the opposition players and fans.

Normally pitch invasions get nasty if it's the away fans who invade the pitch but this season it's seems to get nasty when home fans invade the pitch. The pitch invasions this season by home fans seem to be more messy than previously. Talking of which, I was at Wigan when this classic one man Wolves pitch invasion happened after we were goaded by Wigan fans.

 

[SakosRightFoot]

Almost all pitch invasions are embarrassing carried out by the sort of part time fans who only jump on board when there’s a sniff of success.

That said it’s always pretty alarming just how unprepared some of these clubs are.

 

[sedgwolf1980]

Struggling to comprehend what goes through someone’s mind who does that sort of thing. People got jail time for tweeting players online last summer, this cretin should be jailed for life in that case.

No doubt sacked too. Absolute imbecile.

Do you think it's going back to the 80's when the country was in the doldrums......people just start lashing out at everything? I just saw inflation has hit the highest level for 40 years, they are buggering up trade and caught between a rock and a hard place on Ireland with America and the EU goiing to damage us if we bugger up the GFA to keep the Brexit fantasy going. People, employees and businesses must be worried the direction the country is going in.

Life ban should be the minimum, the courts should deal him a far heavier blow.....there are pitch invasions and then assault, and that was a real cowardly one.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

The last thing anyone wants is for fences to be brought back, but something must be done. I don't like pitch invasions, and never have. We all know how emotional these play off games can be, but there is never any excuse for assaulting a player. I am pleased the thug has been arrested, and hopefully the courts will give him a custodial sentence.

I have read reports in recent weeks being critical of the stewarding at games, but what can stewards do when hundreds of people are determined to get on the pitch. There must be some kind of barrier to stop this happening.

 

[Minimalist]

Pitch invasions are a cliched embarrassing tinpot thing to do in any situation.
People try and make out like it’s spontaneous, but it is clearly pre meditated by people waiting for an excuse.

Yeah, the mood does seem to have changed, first thing I noticed was Forest fans grabbing Steve Cooper and taking selfies with him when he clearly didn’t want it. Reminded me of Mick at Barnsley. Clough would probably have grabbed the phone and throw it in the Trent if it happened in his day!

Football has always reflected society. Unfortunately society is a mess of self centred wasters only interested in themselves. Social media accounts doing limbs and such don’t help. People overdoing it to try and make themselves look good irregardless of who’s around them.

 

[k-dog]

I would bet anything the majority of these situations are because of ****s on coke. Not only do they act like tools, theyve got blood on their hands, the destruction it causes in South America. Deep for a Wednesday morning.

I remember against Rotherham majority of the southbank and ground stayed in their seats when the pitch was invaded chants of "where were you when we were ****" rang out, unfortunately it meant the lads couldn't get a lap of honour and the majority of fans missed it.

I've always disliked pitch invasions

 

[JOSWolf]

Some serious jail time needed for this disgrace of a human. Hope Sharp is ok.

I don't like them for that reason too, normally cuts short any team celebrations and a chance for players to acknowledge the fans.

This is Molineux booing the first pitch invasion against Rotherham.

This! its absolutely unimaginable that a guy who has never seen Forest in the top flight, probably watched them all his life, then runs on the pitch and assaults an opposing player! Not only will he miss the Play Off Final, but he will now be banned from ever watching Forest again, and hopefully serve a prison sentence. What a complete, thick, stupid, ****.

 

[SteveBullsKnee]

A terribly cowardly act which unfortunately seems on the rise again. Certain “fans” thinking it’s ok to do whatever they want. I’d wager all I own he wouldn’t try and headbutt a very tough Billy Sharp if not blindsiding him.

 

[Norman Bell]

I watched the Huddersfield v Luton game on Monday and at the end of the game a Luton player who sat on the pitch in disappointment got cuffed across the back of head by some " brave boy " from behind. The Luton player looked a bit stunned as you would when attacked from behind but just got up and walked off.

There must be a real chance that if Forest win the Play Off Final ( which I hope they do ) that with last night's moron and the cretin who attacked the Leicester player in the FA Cup earlier in the year they will find the first game back in the Premier League will be behind closed doors.

 

[JH1902]

I wonder what the bloody hell was going through his head to go and do something like that.

He was probably coked off his tits!

Shocking and cowardly act.

It’s the “banter” culture we live in (god I hate that word) which allows any cretin to think they can do what they want and if they get challenged start telling folk they are woke snowflakes. I saw that in the Luton match as well and it really angered me as again, it’s a cowardly act from behind. I really hope the next time it happens a player dishes out a right beating. I’d love to see someone cuff Saiss or Ruddy round the head and see where it goes. Absolute vermin.

When a player thumps one of these idiots back they will probably whinge.

As thick as a Boxing Day turd.

 

[SteveBullsKnee]

As thick as a Boxing Day turd.

Never heard that phrase before but I’m defo nicking it

 

[AlexWolvesHD]

I hope Billy is alright could have really hurt him as he wasn't looking in that direction and when you aren't anticipating something like that it could do actual damage.

The guy needs to be banned for life and get jail time for assault, they need to do something about people going on the pitch, for a lot it's a bit of fun to run on and celebrate but when ****s like this guy and the ones from the Huddersfield game are ruining it every time teams fans go on the pitch then it needs to be made that you can't at all.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

I have just seen the video of the assault on Billy Sharp. It was disgusting, the moron concerned should be sent to jail for a long time.
