Surrounded by celebrating teammates, he stood there for a few moments, roaring in delight, his hands on his hips in a defiant, triumphant stance.<\/p>\n<p>Before he turned away, Watkins, a former Brentford player, pointed towards one of the home supporters at that end, an unseen figure out of the camera shot and nodded his head. Brentford\u2019s Saman Ghoddos then shoved Watkins, and all hell broke loose.<\/p>\n<p>By the time the match finished, both teams had had a player sent off, 10 players had been booked and both managers had been cautioned. Some pundits blamed Watkins\u2019 behaviour as the catalyst and said it was an unacceptable way to celebrate a goal.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe I am in a minority but I don\u2019t think Watkins did anything wrong. Nothing at all. It emerged after the match that the fan he had been pointing at had been baiting him throughout the match and screaming foul abuse about his family. Watkins wanted to ram some of that abuse back down his throat.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/18\/16\/79093185-0-image-a-86_1702916844828.jpg\" height=\"460\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Ollie Watkins singled out a supporter in the crowd at Brentford after scoring his goal for 2-1<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/18\/16\/79093165-0-image-a-87_1702916847991.jpg\" height=\"437\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>It later emerged that they had been screaming foul abuse at the Aston Villa star throughout<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>Do you blame him? I don\u2019t. Like most football players, on most match-days, Watkins was actually remarkably restrained in the face of persistent provocation. He did not leap over the advertising hoardings to confront the fan. He did not attempt to emulate Eric Cantona. He made his point peacefully.<\/p>\n<p>You would have thought from the reaction of some that Watkins had leapt the barriers or that he had made obscene gestures towards the supporter or that he had sworn at him. There was none of that. Again, Watkins was remarkably restrained.<\/p>\n<p>This is not, sadly, an unfamiliar dynamic. Abuse at football is always presumed to be a one-way street. It is accepted that abusing visiting players is part of the match-day experience but if the players so much as look at a fan the wrong way, supporters, and pundits, get a collective fit of the vapors.<\/p>\n<p>Players suffer the most egregious insults from the stands, insults that would get you arrested or beaten up if you shouted them in the street, and then are castigated if they react. They are accused, then, of inciting violence because they have inflamed the passions of the crowd. Which is risible.<\/p>\n<p>Many years ago, I recall something similar happening with another Aston Villa player, Mark Bosnich. The goalkeeper was baited by opposition fans throughout a match. At one point, he turned to the supporters and feinted, jokingly, to throw the ball at them. He was reported to the police.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/18\/16\/79093197-0-image-a-88_1702916853298.jpg\" height=\"405\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Tempers frayed after Aston Villa&#8217;s decided at the GTech Community Stadium on Sunday\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/18\/16\/79093181-0-image-a-90_1702916866583.jpg\" height=\"438\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Watkins was blamed by some for sparking the conflict but Oliver Holt doesn&#8217;t think he did anything wrong<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/18\/16\/79093189-0-image-a-89_1702916861104.jpg\" height=\"470\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>By the end of the match both sides were down to 10 players and managers had been warned<\/p>\n<p>On Match of the Day 2 on Sunday night, the former Arsenal and England forward Ian Wright alluded to that happening to him, too, in the past. \u2018There\u2019s a certain amount of people who complain and then police will come to the dressing room,\u2019 Wright said. \u2018That must have happened to me five or six times.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Alan Shearer supported Watkins, too. \u2018It\u2019s his right of reply,\u2019 he said simply. And he was right. Watkins, too, was, quite correctly, unrepentant. \u2018If he said those things to me again,\u2019 Watkins said, \u2018I\u2019d do it again.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The fault does not belong to the player who reacts. The fault belongs to those who have baited and mocked him for 90 minutes \u2013 sometimes in the most unpleasant and upsetting ways &#8211; and somehow expect that they should be protected by the unwritten rule that a player is an object, not a human being with feelings.<\/p>\n<p>If Watkins did the same again, I\u2019d back him again. All the way. He did absolutely nothing wrong. As for the fans who are criticising him for what he did, they need to grow up. They need to realise that you cannot act like a moron with total impunity. If you can\u2019t take it, don\u2019t dish it out.<\/p>\n<p><span>Arteta&#8217;s charm sees charge disintegrate\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The FA\u2019s case against Mikel Arteta for the abuse he aimed at match officiating after Arsenal\u2019s defeat to Newcastle last month became, inevitably, bogged down in tedious and laughable linguistic argument about what the Arsenal manager really meant when he called disputed decisions a \u2018disgrace\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Arteta clarified his comment and the Independent Regulatory Commission was charmed by him. He was called an \u2018impressive witness\u2019. They just about stopped short of saying \u2018has he fragrance\u2019 but his exoneration was permission for those who abuse referees at all levels of the game to carry on ranting.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/18\/16\/79093287-0-image-a-91_1702916908071.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Mikel Arteta seemed to have charmed the Independent Regulatory Commission after he received an FA charge<\/p>\n<p><span>Sir Kenny&#8217;s a worthy winner\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I have not watched the BBC Sports Personality of the Year show for some time but it is heartening to see that they have got at least one thing right this year by honouring Sir Kenny Dalglish with a Lifetime Achievement Award.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As he is for so many others, Dalglish is a hero of mine because of the sublime player that he was and because of the strength and support he provided, and continues to provide, for the families of those who lost loved ones in the tragedy at Hillsborough in 1989.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Dalglish was a brilliant footballer, one of the greatest that these isles have ever produced, and he is an even better person.
