No way!! Absolute fucking joke.

 

[RetfordBlade96]

So open season for pitch invaders then? Mind blowing decision!

Charged with what exactly?

 

[raul]

Presumably this means anyone can walk into the EFL and start knocking the staff around safe in the knowledge they aren't allowed the basic right to self- defend?

 

[dn5 shaun]

Charged with what exactly?

Stamping on a fan and not being able to stamp any authority on a game of football all season.

 

[Stanthemanfan]

Should have done a Vieira, would have got away with it then!

 

[D.h.1109]

Charged with what exactly?

Moving more when injured than when he’s fit

 

[CaptainMorgans]

Oh dear.

The EFL have had an absolute nightmare here.

Absolutely ridiculous.

 

[Gaini Blade]

My client is of previous good behaviour M'lud....

 

[Bookers Mullet]

Biggest crock of shit ever. CPS are a joke

 

[HuddersfieldBlade]

Charged by the Police or EFL/FA?

 

[Yogi]

Be interesting to see what they’re charged with especially Brewster as all he did was shove someone away

 

[SwissBlade]

Much more convenient for the police to charge footballers than for them to go after fans illegally on the pitch.

Speaking of which, has there been any sort of investigation by the police, the FA or EFL into the safety issues at Forest that night?

 

[WhiteHawk]

Charged by the Police or EFL/FA?

The police.

 

[S64 Blade]

Pathetic decision. Have those invading the pitch also been charged?

 

[B.Lade]

When's Viera's charge being announced then?

[Wards]

Pathetic

 

[Champagneblade]

Asinine.

If the best they have is that sketchy video what a waste of Police time and Tax payer money.

 

[SwissBlade]

Charged by the Police or EFL/FA?

Good point. The article doesn’t say

Club statement

Sheffield United Football Club is disappointed to learn that Rhian Brewster and Oli McBurnie have been charged following the incidents that took place at the EFL Championship play-off semi-final second leg against Nottingham Forest last month.

If this is the case we should press charges against Nottingham forest football club for failing to provide a safe work environment

 

[Grappler]

So, a few footballers, surrounded by 100's/1,000's of rowdy fans (including one who injured Billy Sharp) and they get no protection from Stewards or Police, and are expected to just stand there and be attacked?

I'm afraid to say the CPS are a fucking joke.

Exactly that. I didn't want us to go all McCabe, but we should now go after them

Oh, shut up, for fuck’s sake…

 

[biggiesablade]

Disgusting

 

[COME BACK CHED]

Was the so called assults before or after Billy got Head butted ? could help if after .

 

[reedy63]

Fucking ridiculous. what do they expect players to do. just stand and get beat up. supposed to be an offense any cunt to run the pitch.

 

[Mojo]

Forest fans gloating about this on twitter is making me feel sick.

So they can run on the pitch and attack our players and face no consequences whatsoever? And then to rub salt in the wound the police charge two of our players.

I'm afraid we must take legal action against Nottingham Forest we can not allow this shit

 

[Davalon]

I've jumped the gun here and assumed charged in the Police sense. I've been saying I'm shocked the CPS have gone for this.

I guess it may be the EFL.

Unless there's something gone off we haven't seen, then it sets a dangerous precedent imho.
