Assistant referee David Bryan was hit by a flare thrown from the Tottenham supporters' end during their match against Aston Villa at Villa Park on Sunday.

spurs forum has someone at the game saying it was lit, and then thrown in to a group of fans, one then picked it up and threw it away, not meaning to hit the linesman

those things are just dangerous

I know they are used in a few countries around Europe but they are really dangerous even when not thrown at people, should just ban them

good thing is CCTV is usually good at finding out who did the stuff like this and the idiot who brought it likely won't be attending any football matches in the EU for the rest of his/her life
