“ Cardiff City make statement “

Wed Aug 25, 2021 12:42 pm

Cardiff City Football Club is very disappointed by the actions of three persons who entered the playing arena during Tuesday evening’s Carabao Cup fixture with Brighton & Hove Albion.

All three individuals have been reported to South Wales Police and the Club is preparing an impact statement that will support those individuals being charged under the Football Offences Act (1991).


It is of paramount importance that the playing arena remains a safe area for players and officials; it is a criminal offence to enter the field of play or the area adjacent to it.

The actions of the three individuals who committed offences on Tuesday evening will likely result in convictions, fines and three-year Football Banning Orders administered by the courts.

As part of this process, the Club will also be applying for costs to cover expected EFL sanctions and increased ongoing security charges.

3 year ban from watching their favourite club.

But the worst bit is the Criminal Record - which will cause problems getting jobs or going on holiday.

Why do it?

Madness.

Totally agree; yet BarryWelsh88 thinks it was okay to do...! :shock:

As I said elsewhere, the idiot near me was egged on by his (so called) 'friends' and on looks alone, I think the biggest (in all aspects) lad pushing amongst them might have been his brother...

I think all three are going to have a rude awakening in tbe coming days/weeks; particularly if tbe club feel they need to recoup any legal costs and/or fines

Hopefully the club reminds everyone Saturday of the fact that entering the field of play is a criminal offence and will be prosecuted as such
Especially with Bristol Saturday
