Coin throwing...

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Haven't seen this elsewhere. Taken from the BBC's 'quotes of the week...

"It was nice to get some monetary reward from the Brighton fans"

Crystal Palace coach Iain Dowie on being pelted with coins after his side snatched a late winner against their rivals.


Surprised no-one mentioned this before. Seems strange that we're chucking money around after complaining how expensive withdean is...

It was also in the Guardian's match report yesterday.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

So when did it happen? Throughout the game, after the last minute winner?

 

[El Presidente]

Think it was at the end of the match.

The usual dickheads will no doubt be proud of themselves

 

[Bwian]

Maybe they were just giving change from the load thrown at Smellhurst?

It was at the end of the match.

There was quite a few coins hitting the back of the Palace dugout.

 

[Basil Fawlty]

I wonder if they where throwing coins at mr ugly, for his bus ride home.

That's not particularly clever. Hardly surprising some people are wary of football fans when this shit happens.

I saw it happening as I left. Half the palace bench were taking the piss of the fans leaving behind and a few chav Burberry boys obviously weren't to happy about it. I saw one coin in the air but didn't see who threw it.

What? Anyone??

 

[Redhead]

I threw a wobbly at the end of the game but no coins

Eh ? Where's the implication that it's clever ?

The coin throwing isn't clever...

 

[Dave the OAP]

right that is it!!!!

falmer is cancelled

 

[Half Man Half Biscuit]

From what I saw the Palace no.14 (ginger headed chap) was winding fans up (after incidentally he'd had a shit game) and he got about £3.45 for his troubles.

 

[Man of Harveys]

blah blah BLOODY stupid STEWARDS Blah blah wot's rong wiv a bit off PASSION blah blah bring back terracing blah blah no wonder the atmos at Withdean is so shite blah blah blah

 

[Seagullible]

I was going a bit mental at the 4th official with fairly standard abuse about being crap - then decided to tone it down a bit when I saw the police camera pointing my way

 

[Barrel of Fun]

It is pathetic. Hit someone in the eye and blind em. Would people that do it really want that on their conscience?

Oh he deserved it, his team beat us.

Ban them

Ban Palace, what a great idea!

 

[Scarface]

Didnt see any coins thrown but did see a cigarette lighter bounce off the top of the dugout not far from the Number 14s (Ben Watson?) sneering face. Have never felt like throwing anything more than I did in the way out. Did see a half full coke bottle come flying out of the away end when they scored the second, it barely made the advertising hordings!
