Game was a good, considering the temperatures.
My standouts with Hobson and Crowhurst. Superb goal from Wreh.
Solihull were a solid team, so this result is great.
Regarding the fans, it sparked from their goalie going down after Powell slid in. Their number 5, Howe, goaded the fans on the abuse we were giving the goalie for his ‘injury’, tensions rose here - as they usually do (that is football).
I think everyone can agree:
1) going on the pitch in any case is ridiculous and stupid.
2) the stewards wanted trouble, why were their badges the wrong way around, not showing ID? Untrained and dangerous.
3) the police should have advised the stewards better. Going into the crowd to get someone was always trouble. If he was on camera (which he was), put out post game protocols to locate and prosecute.
4) running away after being caught isn’t a bright idea.
5) regardless of what the bloke did, the restraint was crazy. What reaction did they expect from the others? How much evidence is there that football hooligans get worse with intervention, when the sim in the moment should be prevention…
Maybe next year we’ll have a calm visit to Solihull!
