Could phones go the same way as bottle tops ?

A Norwich supporter has been arrested and banned from Carrow Road for three years after throwing a mobile phone on to the pitch.

The incident reportedly happened after Canaries striker Teemu Pukki had a goal ruled out for offside by the video assistant referee (VAR) during Saturday's 2-2 draw with Tottenham.

The fan was identified and arrested at half-time.

Norfolk Police are continuing to investigate the incident.

"Norwich City continues to operate a strict zero-tolerance policy on unacceptable and discriminatory behaviour," said a club statement

Guess he was on the 0-2 network?

Pay as you throw?

 

[Weststander]

Wins the final Darwin Award of the decade, leaving a neat clue as to his identity.

Must have been an Omsung.

You wouldn't throw an iPhone.

He's from Norwich, give him a break. Wouldn't have known what it was.......probably just very scared of the shiny flashing noise-box someone near him produced.

Shouldn't have had his phone in hand during the game, serves him right.

Pie - acceptable.
Fizzy pop - acceptable.
Small child - acceptable.
Mobile phone - unacceptable.

Although were it a land line phone I would class that as acceptable too.

He only got a ban, it didn't kill him ....

Just spluttered my cuppa all over myself! Comedy Gold!

Would have been Three if VAR hadn't ruled the goal out.

Mobile in hand checking an accy - acceptable

All 11 of his fingerprints were found on the device

They have mobile phones in Norwich?

Must have been a present from his mum and sister. Lovely woman, apparently.

Bizarrely they also match those of his niece, who happens to be his wife too.

They cross-referenced them with some prints they found on a crayon she was using at primary school before Christmas.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Before we get carried away I seem to recall an occasional NSC poster throwing his phone onto the concourse after an on pitch kerfuffle many years ago - either at Sunderalnd or Oldham away. He was certainly escorted from the ground at Oldham. No names, etc

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Phones go the way of bottle tops? We still have pies at the Amex, despite a Brighton fan getting a ban for throwing a pie at Zaha.

 

[AmexRuislip]

Could've been mistaken for a female, perhaps Dialia Smith

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

*Sing up, throw your phone away*

 

[Medwayseagull]

Lucky he didn't end up in a "cell".

His mum should have kept quiet when they rang her
