    Read the last sentence, judge knew that was bull****.

    TBH the fact he was drunk should of been more against him, then for him to make excuses.

    Fair play to that judge, real common sense attitude.

    I think 4 months was lenient for a repeat offender. I also got a clear look at him on tv (like a million other people) and he certainly looked sober and in full possession of his faculties when he shoved Kirkland. Just making excuses.

    @Mike65 - how is that playground thinking. The fans are not there to police other fans. that is the job of the stewards and the police.

    Your man is utter scum, but Kirkland went down like he was shot.

    Im not defending the scumbags actions one bit, but really Kirkland made bit of meal of it.

    Not making that an excuse. Feel sorry for most Leeds fans now.

    Sorry. He is actually nice fella.:rolleyes:

    I'd say he was on more than drink.

    In fairness, Kirkland was hit fairly hard if you watch it again. Can't believe people are blaming Kirkland for something in this. Would love to know how people would react if they had the same thing happen to them.

    Eh, who's blaming Kirkland?

    Anyway, I was watching it live and the first thing that struck me was that he looked absolutely sober. There is no way he had that much to drink.

    Exactly, Kirkland I'm assuming isn't used to getting 'sucker-shoved' in the face, that kind of reaction is fairly normal.
