Re: Blackpool Fans
Everything being thrown at Spurs is aimed at a player, not the pitch. I wonder if anything slightly heavier than you'd expect is wrapped up in any of the 100 or so paper balls that have been thrown on so far?
When does it go from being OK to not OK?
Are plastic glasses OK to throw at players?
