Because Gerry Kershaw was bent as a nine-bob note when it came to Leeds and Phil Bentham isn't? |

No chance integrity is missing throughout RFL HQ |

IIRC Jamie Carragher wasn't charged by either the FA or the police for throwing a coin back into the crowd (think it was at Goodison?) so I wouldn't expect to see any further action here.

I fear I'm in danger of becoming Phil Ford. Even I don't know where I'm heading half the time so gawd help the rest of you.

Hanging's too good for this kind of thing. How anyone can worry about drought in Africa, the rise of the far right in Europe or the decline of global financial systems, let alone Wembley finals, when people are throwing boots into crowds is beyond me.
Really puts things into perspective.

I thought it was at Highbury, but I could be mistaken.
I also remember Drogba getting done for returning the money a careless fan had dropped onto the pitch, as mentioned above.
EDIT - I've just googled it, and it was at Highbury back in 2002. He was sent off, fined £40k by Liverpool and received a formal police caution, but escaped further punishment by the FA. Not exactly getting off scott free is it? |

It's easy to trivialise but I don't think a player should escape without censure when he throws an onject like a rugby boot into a crowd of people.

I agree. I felt the same after the 2009 Grand Final when TMFMISL threw his boots into the crowd in celebration (while Graham was sat on his bum crying).
They ended up hitting a 4 foot, female, Saints fan right in the temple. True story (well half of it) |

There were no Saints fans in the ground come the 80 minute mark so you're obviously lying!! |
