The Walsall commentary did say it looked as though someones passport was thrown on the pitch.
There was a guy in Birmingham city centre handing out bibles, there was a town fan who obviously took a few off him as he was offering them out on the way to the ground. |

That's clearly not what he's saying. You are aware fans can make noise and support without throwing things about?
There were smoke canisters thrown from both sets of fans and bizarrely what looked like bibles or something were given to the referee twice by the lino in front of the town fans.
On that note, thought the local police and stewards handled things very well yesterday, they set the line pretty high and nobody crossed it. The only 'trouble' I saw were Walsall and town fans shouting abuse at each other across the platform at the Bescot stadium station which killed the 20 minute waiting time as it was entertaining. I think had a more heavy handed approach been adopted the day could have kicked off massively. Credit where its due.
Yes a Bible was thrown on the pitch, a lad with us was given 3 in the Birmingham Centre (was behind the goal thus not thrown from him).. Was a laugh moment with Lino stopping game and ref going over picking up the bible. Ref was pissing himself laughing and said something to a few of the players that clearly made them laugh. |

Didn’t Charlton just get the bank when we played them?

Fairly sure Brighton had the Arkells from memory. Thought Charlton did too but could be wrong. Don't think we sold out the home end for that one? How times have changed. |

That was brilliant by McKirdy - We thought the only reason that wasn’t allowed was the ref made him take the throw from behind rather than in front of the Walsall player (referring to position of the goal line not the way the defender is facing).
I just remembered Egbo’s Ramona pass to McKirdy in the second half - wonderful skill - (Harry volleyed high and wide).
