UK Soccer Brawl Ends in Five Ejections – Video

And, shockingly, with all the punching and kicking going on, no one ended up on the ground clutching a knee. And yet, during a game, a stiff breeze can send a player to the turf in agony.

Here’s more from the Daily Mail:

Shamed Crawley duo Pablo Mills and Claude Davis have written letters of apology following their roles in a mass brawl after the club’s win at Bradford City on Tuesday night.

Red Devils captain Mills and Jamaica international Davis were both sent off – along with Bradford trio Jon McLaughlin, Luke Oliver and Andrew Davies – after a melee in which several punches seen to be were thrown.

Video: Did Soccer Referee Mike Dean Celebrate Louis Saha’s Tottenham Goal vs Arsenal?

Or it could be a pulled hammy, but we think it’s one of the first two.

UK Soccer Streaker Banned for Three Years After Incident in Front of Kids

Best to pick you streaking venues wisely, young man.

It’s one thing to get drunk and run out in front of a crowd of other adults at a pro game, quite another to to chose a game being played by teenagers in front a stands filled with school kids on a field trip.

Yeah, that’s world class stupid. And also why Craig Knight, 20, of Goldstone Villas, Hove, (United Kingdom) will banned from every football (soccer) stadium in the country for three whole years. Knight decided it would be fun to streak during an England under-19 match against Denmark at the American Express Community Stadium . . . with about 16,000 screaming fans, mostly children on school trips, according to reports.

In addition to the ban, Knight is on probation for 12 months and must do 100 hours of community service. Hopefully all of it with his clothes on.
