The kids made a major mistake. He'll pay for it. We'll get over it. No big deal.
would hope the witchhunt ends here. Yep. He is a effing idiot, but it was hardly a premeditated attack. No clue why he went after that player, the only can't on the pitch was the netmar and maybe the ref

So blame the bevvy? If that were the case hundreds would have ran on to the park.
Don't blame it on the stewards Don't blame it on the police Don't blame it on scoreline Blame it on the bevvy…

Surely to eff he's joking? I actually misquoted him. He actually said (and this is a direct quote):
"One of the effers should have got his gun out and shot him" after a diatribe before and after about increased terror threats and police presence.

Well aye and naw. The bevvy - and being a dick - is why he ran on the park. It's not an excuse, but it's part of the reason. If you can't handle your bevvy, don't drink. Getting drunk is not an excuse for unacceptable behaviour. He's old enough to know how he handles his drink and therefore old enough to take full responsibility for his actions whether he's sober or drunk. He chose to get drunk. He chose to be the only one in a crowd of 60,000 to invade the pitch. That makes him a príck. The reason this príck ran onto the park is because he's a príck. That's your full reason right there. Invading the park is the sort of thing prícks do. Just to be clear: - the guy's a príck. On this occasion he was a drunk príck but that doesn't make him any less of a príck.

A mistake is unintentional. You don't get pished, run onto the pitch and try to kick a player by accident. Mistakes are not always unintentional. They can be errors of misjudgement. This is obviously a criminal act, but still a mistake.
You should read more.

Gombeen Man Tom English also hoping for a severe punishment from UEFA -7 paragraphs on our history- seems all of the Media have brought up our "criminal record " with UEFA !
Spoiler: click to toggle PSG's play was bewilderingly brilliant, but Celtic have grounds for concern
By Tom English
BBC Scotland
From the section Football
PSG strikers Kylian Mbappe, Neymar and Edinson Cavani PSG strikers Kylian Mbappe, Neymar and Edinson Cavani all scored in the 5-0 win over Celtic
When the lone moron ran on to the pitch at Celtic Park in an attempt to assault Kylian Mbappe on Tuesday, a couple of thoughts occurred. Firstly, how on earth was he allowed to get so close to the Paris St-Germain superstar - where were the stewards? - and secondly, what will Uefa make of it?
European football's governing body moves in mysterious ways. They deliver fines for flares, even greater fines for political banners, but their idea of consistency is hard to read.
This time last year, in a Champions League game in Russia between Rostov and PSV Eindhoven, a supporter in the home crowed hurled a banana in the direction of the Dutch full-back Jetro Willems, who's black.
Rostov previously had part of their stadium closed because of racist chanting among their fans. For the banana? Nothing. A clear incident of racism was dismissed while other clubs were getting financially carpeted for offences that were, by comparison, miniscule.
Uefa charges Celtic for fan invasion PSG give Celtic 'taste of own medicine' Celtic played like under-12s - Rodgers Ralston vows to learn from Neymar joust Celtic crushed 5-0 by Paris St-Germain
Because of the actions of one guy - roundly booed by the Celtic supporters in the aftermath - the club is probably in a new kind of trouble. We say 'probably' because you can never quite tell with Uefa, which has charged Celtic for the incident with a disciplinary hearing to take place on 19 October.
Given Celtic have received 12 sanctions over the past six years, there will surely come a time when Uefa say enough is enough and go beyond a fine into the realms of part-closure of the stadium.
For all the commendable reaction of their support in booing this wretched solo run, this is serious stuff for Celtic - or it ought to be. We'll wait to see what kind of punishment is handed down this time. Meanwhile, there is a team to marvel at. Alan Stubbs: Celtic faced more than £700m-worth of PSG talent
PSG were bewilderingly brilliant at Celtic Park, but for all the accuracy, imagination and goals they delivered in what was possibly the most complete performance by a visiting European side - one of the passages of play that captured them best happened not in or around Celtic's penalty box, but deep inside their own area with green and white shirts buzzing around them.
It was the 13th minute and PSG pulled off an exit strategy that brought momentary ripples of applause - and the odd gasp - from the home crowd. Playing passing triangles in attack is one thing, but doing so close to your own six-yard area is quite another.
This was confidence, control and technique in one glorious package. PSG weren't content to get rid of the ball. They were determined to look after it.
They passed and passed and passed and worked their way out of a tight spot. In a football world that can be so ugly at times, this was beautiful. Up in the commentary box for BBC Scotland, Owen Coyle and Scott McDonald were open-mouthed, seasoned football men reacting with all the thrill of young kids. They were far from alone. Kylian Mbappe and Celtic fan Celtic could face Uefa sanctions after a fan ran onto the pitch and appeared to aim a kick at Kylian Mbappe
The ball-in-play time on Tuesday was 69 minutes and 17 seconds. None of the other Champions League games matched that. Five of the other seven games came in at around 62 minutes of actual play. Bayern Munich's 3-0 defeat of Anderlecht in Celtic's group had less than an hour of active football.
If not physically, Celtic were mentally exhausted before the end. Save for a 20-minute spell at the start of the second half, when they took a breather, PSG were relentless, playing at a pace and with an ambition that was by turns thrilling and terrifying.
They're entitled to be exceptional, of course. Half a billion pounds gives you quite the start down the road to excellence.
Teams of this quality relish the atmosphere at Celtic Park. So much is rightly made of the vibe inside the place - French journalists wrote pieces and made mini-documentaries about it when previewing the game - but the reality is this: in group action against the elite, as opposed to qualifiers against the lesser lights, Celtic haven't won any of their past nine home European ties going back three years.
They've drawn three and lost six, they've scored 11 and have conceded 24. Albeit against PSG, Barcelona and Borussia Monchengladbach, Celtic have not scored at home in their past three Champions League group games. Celtic lose 5-0 to Paris St-Germain Celtic suffered their heaviest home defeat in Europe in the 5-0 loss to Paris St-Germain
Even allowing for PSG's brilliance, Celtic were poor. Brendan Rodgers' comment about them playing like an under-12 side in the first half was very un-Rodgers like. He didn't even come close to saying anything like as cutting when Celtic went down 7-0 to Barcelona last year. It was an illustration of his disappointment - and probably his shock.
They lacked aggression, their passing was panicked, their demeanour was that of men who were overawed by their illustrious visitors. They won't be the last team to feel like that this season.
PSG's movement in attack was spectacular, but they were helped by defending that was hellish on occasion. A recurring theme of the last few months has been Celtic's weakness at centre-half.
They've been unlucky with injury, for sure. They've tried a number of combinations and still Rodgers tinkers with it. He had an 18-year-old, in Anthony Ralston, marking Neymar. Ralston has had four starts for Celtic. The youngster had to play because Mikael Lustig, a full-back, was needed at centre-half. Rodgers' other available options as centre-half partner for Jozo Simunovic were Nir Bitton, a midfielder, and 19-year-old Kristoffer Ajer.
It's fair to say that Celtic could have spent £10m on a centre-half in the transfer window and they could still have lost 5-0. PSG are not the point, though. Anderlecht are. Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers will need to refocus his players for the key Champions League ties against Anderlecht
The Belgian side are doughty but beatable and Celtic play them next in Brussels. In Munich on Tuesday, Anderlecht had a player sent off after 11 minutes. That red card cost them a penalty, which made it 1-0. Bayern had to wait 65 minutes for their second goal and 90 minutes for their third.
Celtic's two games against Anderlecht could be seen as akin to a play-off for the Europa League post-Christmas. That's the only pressure that Rodgers is under in all of this - to be seen to be making progress in Europe.
If he achieves it then little more will be said about why he didn't bring in another experienced centre-half. It'll be a different story if a lack of an established centre-half costs them against Anderlecht. They're no PSG, but they're good enough to beat Celtic if the Scottish champions aren't right on the night.
In the Champions League's rarefied air, feel-good can turn to feel-bad very quickly. Celtic are thrilled to be there, but it's a brutal world. They showed last season they can learn the lessons and get good results on the road after experiencing turmoil. It's been five years since they won a group match away, a run of 13 games, including six draws.
A draw would be a decent result. Brussels, with its storied parliament, has a reputation for stalemates. Celtic, in their one-to-one battle with the Belgians, would settle for another in a fortnight.

Have heard him come out with similar type stuff over the years, wouldn't be surprised if he's a closet Nigel Farage supporter. I would put money on him being a paid up Tory anyway.
As for the boy, his 15 minutes of fame will cost him for the rest of days..... thedrugsdon'twork CSC

I'm just glad it wasn't Dida he swung that fresh air kick at. Dida would have to be airlifted to hospital from a helicopter landing on the pitch causing the game to be abandoned. Then UEFA really would have thrown the book at us.
Both fans involved in this are crazy, got a bit of sympathy for both.
