Dorchester's Ashley Vickers sees red over pitch invader

BBC Sport - Football - Dorchester's Ashley Vickers sees red over pitch invader

Dorchester Town's Ashley Vickers was sent off for tackling a pitch invader dressed in a mankini in his side's 3-1 defeat at Havant & Waterlooville. The incident occurred with Monday's game at 1-1. Dorchester ended the game with eight men after Jake Smeeton and Kyle Critchell were also dismissed.
Vickers, 39, told the Dorset Echo: "I'm dumbfounded and speechless. I thought I was doing them a favour.
"The ref lost the game after that and he knew he had made a great error."

I would advise watching the video on the BBC story it is very funny.

That is stupid. If people understood that getting on the playing surface (regardless of what sport) meant that a professional athlete may stop your foolishness I think less idiots would be inclined to do it. Punishing the home franchise is just as dumb too.

You see what happens when real football players handle things:

Wonder what Terry Tate's take on this might be:

I've been looking for some more now, this ones a security guard taking some idiot down

A slightly better soccer take down that kid didn't stand a chance

Even Cricket players get in on the act

The best ones from Baseball however

Then a compilation

I paticularly like the cricket one and the commentary.
However the Terry Tate(whoever he may be!) was a fantastic commercial very funny wasn't expecting the end bit.
