The mindless Tottenham fan who attacked Aaron Ramsdale will be tried

Oh Joseph, you made a big mistake. The guy who tried to kick Arsenal's goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale after the final whistle of last weekend's North London Derby has been identified as one Joseph Watts. He has been charged with assault.

The police in London issued a statement confirming the charges and the identity of the not-co-clever "football fan".

"Joseph Watts, 35 (23.06.87) of Hackney, was charged on Tuesday, 17 January, with assault by beating, going onto an area adjacent to the playing area and throwing a missile onto a football playing area, both contrary to the Football Offences Act 1991. He is due to appear at Highbury Magistrates' Court on Friday, 17 February. The Met's Football Investigations Team were assisted in their enquiries by Tottenham Hotspur Football Club."
