I'm afraid I think setting off the smoke flares (there were two during the game, to be accurate) is relevant, if only because doing so was likely to wind the stewards up. Not enough to justify what happened subsequently, but something to cost us at least some of the moral high ground and give CTFC something to use in their defence of the indefensible. And of course it's stupid, and potentially dangerous. Numpty is right for whoever set it off, though I wouldn't disagree with "thug,idiot, n knobhead" for the steward either.
