As Mike Dean recovers from the disgusting incident of receiving a blow to the head from a coin, maybe the Football Association should consider punishing the club rather than the individual.
Because, surely that would be more of a deterrent than banning individuals for life?
The majority of football supporters want to see their club succeed, so if the club were to be docked points, surely the fans wouldn`t be so sure of unleashing a forearm thrust towards the players and officials on the pitch?
There will always be a minority of supporters who will cause trouble, that`s a fact every club has to face.
So a threat of a points deduction would surely unite the fans to not causing bother at matches.
