Interesting hold that steward has on him.
Can see a new Wolverhampton station thread starting here. ..........
After the Man City/Bournemouth incident I read an article by an ex copper, might have been posted on here too, that basically implied that for that sort of action, the only justification is if your own life is in danger.Interesting hold that steward has on him.
Neck locks/holds are extremely frowned upon these days when restraining folk. You have to show an extreme high level of justification for it.
However a 'still' picture can be very misleading.
I wonder what the circumstances were.
I noticed at the end of the game the stewards were trying to stop Sam taking pictures of the crowd, just crazy and quite rightly Sam was getting agitated by the stewards actions
Are you sure this isn't the ref? Forest fans don't like losing!!
On a slightly unrelated note:
Does anyone know how, given that I was searched and had my bag searched, someone managed to get that smoke bomb/flare into the ground!? They let it off a couple of rows behind me, it stunk!

That is correct as I saw him charging down towards the bottom and when stewards tried to restrain him he started throwing and even landing some blows on everything in front of him. As much as I like to defend our fans his actions were indefensible and he deserved to be put in a headlock and arrested. To start windmilling in on everything that moves in front of you for no apparent reason isn't a cause for a headlock then we really do love in a nanny state. If witnesses are required then I certainly won't hesitate in coming forward as his behavior has no place not only in football but as society as a whole and just because we may have something in common in that we support the same team isn't a good enough reason for him not to face punishment.The word going around on social media, is that the fan in the lock had tried to get on the pitch and was swinging punches at Stewards and even Police.
It stunk - there's your answer.On a slightly unrelated note:

Not really an answer ww1963 is it?
It wouldn't stink before being let off. I'm not really against flares etc, not that I could ever be ***** to get banned for taking 1 in, but have to agree about the searching being a bit sporadic.
Why would someone be randomly throwing head butts and punches though. Doesn't add up to me.
Saw one of the spotters recording it all. I wonder what parts they crop out !
