He also got a 10 year banning order. Those are not fun. For the next 10 years he has to surrender his passport for 6 weeks when an International tournament is on and report at a police station x miles away from Birmingham's ground whenever they're playing at home to make sure they're not at the game or in pubs near the stadium.

For what he did he to going to prison for 14 weeks and has significant disruption to his life for 10 years as well as criminal record if he didn't have one already. On top of that he is banned for life by the club itself.

This seems like a decent deterrent to me. No way is anyone looking at that and thinking 'meh, i'll do the time to run on the pitch!'. The problem is, and always will be, that people are idiots are do inexplicably stupid things at times. This guy had a season ticket for 20 years it seems. Went to the game every week with his friends no doubt and in one stupid moment he has lost that for life.
