It's not a disaster your right.How can justify laughing at a child getting smacked in the face? I'm far from pc as people know but my first impression of that video is that i genuinely felt sorry for him. I don't care who he supports,that's not the point.

You must hate programmes like You've Been Framed then. All those people laughing at children hurting themselves, sickening really

ugh... nothing funny about a kid getting smacked in the face by a strike so hard it'd make him bleed. doesn't seem to matter for the keyboard tough guys, though lol. good story to tell for the rest of his life, though.

I remember Gary Hart practicing free kicks away at Plymouth about 5 years ago (we lost 5-1) and he smashed a seat in half a few rows in front of me :rave:

Happened to me twice at Selhurst! Once from Nigel Martyn and once from John Humphrey. I turned out ok though, just.

In nearly 30 years of watching the Albion, it has never happened to me Churley. In fact, I've only once managed to actually touch the match ball - sitting in the south Stand at the Goldstone and Ian Chapman managed to miss the goal by three miles and I pulled off a magnificent save.

Feel sorry for the little Palarse kid though - at least it wasn't Cantona!

I dont either.

How do you know that kid supported palace for one?, and its a little boy for f*** sake.

Probally due to the fact he's in the palace end at a palace game, it's a bit of a give away :shrug:

Its a pre-season friendly so i thought that they never sectioned it off for away fans?

Yes it's not usually sectioned when your playing teams like Whitehawk, but when your playing the premier league champions in a sell-out it will be sectioned.
We were sectioned at AFC Wimbledon last year :shrug:

Oh for God's sake people calm down!

A bit red raw for a couple of hours but no long term damage done. Things like like that make you tougher!!

I blame it on the mother myself. If you do sit behind the goal during the warm up...
