Its that serious. Where are we at in football when some thug thinks that is what he is going to do?The football authorities have to be seen to nail Birmingham for the behaviour of their fan.If that means docking them points, playing in an empty stadium, so be it. There cannot be a strong enough punishment.Its completely ridiculous. I cant remember seeing anything as blatant as this.A supporter appeared to shove Chris Smalling2

There has to be the right message here. Come down like a ton of bricks on Birmingham and punish so-called fans where it hurts, with bans and fines.It just proves we have a real problem. The authorities have to stamp it out now.United defender Ashley Young also urged the FA to take action against the pitch invaders. He added: “What message can you put out there? It is the third time a fan has managed to get on the pitch.What if they are carrying something? Players will be at danger.It is definitely something the FA, Premier League and FIFA need to look at. Maybe extra stewarding, something has to be done.
