What a pity our players couldn't put up much of a fight as that bloke did.

I saw him run over the yellow Renault sign towards the Palace fans, he went up close to them, arms aloft and seemed goading them until the Palace fan in the yellow t-shirt took a swing at him first and that idiot then tried to hit him back (but with little success by the looks of it) until the stewards got there and struggled to escort him away.

If he was anything like the guy that ran onto the pitch during the liverpool game then it probably was going to be his only visit to the Amex so didn't care about any repercussions for his actions, what sort of punishment is a ban if you never intend to go again anyway?

Given the distance he covered between the WSL and Palace fans, and considering the number of stewards in the area, were they not a bit slow as it seemed it was only when he got to the Palace fans they were aware of his presence. However like the team sure they will learn from the experience

Sad part of this is that he will probably be banned from football matches for years.
From where I was sitting the stewards looked heavy handed and had no idea how to restrain properly. At one point they seemed to almost 'throw' him over the hording bit where he got stuck until being lifted over head first.

Sad? I hope he fell on his head.

Maybe we should sign him up to play in midfield.
