After watching the video of Accrington goalkeeper Dimitar Evtimov getting sent off for chucking a bottle into the away end despite it being thrown on the pitch by the travelling Blackpool fans, fans took to social media to give their reaction…
Returns bottle thrown at him and is sent off? Ok then ?

Can understand the reaction but can't just e throwing stuff into the crowd. Unless can guarantee it will only hit the person who threw it

Was always going to be a red but you can plainly see it wasn’t chucked with venom and I can’t see an empty plastic bottle doing any harm.Hope the authorities don’t come down on him to hard he’d had an excellent game until then.Hopefully he will learn from this & be better for it

But. If some dick 6 rows behind me chucks a bottle and a player then chucks it back and it hits me or my son I'd be furious. It's simple. You don't do it. Not to excuse the dick who threw it or the other knobbers chucking flares. Shame. He'd done great up to that point as well!

The crowd behaviour in Accrington Stanley Vs Blackpool game is really unacceptable. I can understand why evtimov got sent off but he was generally not safe behind the goal with all the bottles and flares been thrown

Fans also gave their reaction to the Accrington manager’s comments stating that he thought the sending off was harsh…
I like John Coleman but he couldn't be more in the wrong in this situation regarding the bottle, making himself sound very silly. and immature.

His managers comments were disgraceful. Long ban needed for goalkeeper and manager.

Well said #JohnColeman @SkySportsNews. Referee has had a shocker tonight! Absolutely no reason why @ASFCofficial needed to go to 10-men #LeagueOne
