What a piss take.
A Middlesbrough fan has been accused of urinating in the water bottle belonging to QPR goalkeeper Alex Smithies.
A video that circulated on social media shows a man holding the bottle near his crotch area, before putting the lid back on and throwing it back towards the goal, greeted by cheers from other fans.
His actions were caught by a fellow away fan at Loftus Road on Saturday at Middlesbrough’s 3-0 away victory over QPR. According to reports from other fans, stewards ejected the accused fan who has now been arrested and charged with throwing items onto the pitch.
The fan will appear in court next month. Cleveland Police’s Football Officer tweeted that he hopes a banning order will be imposed on the fan, with the goal of preventing him from attending any more Boro matches in the future.
I’ve been asked by a few followers and can confirm the so called @Boro fan who urinated in the @QPRFC goalie bottle was arrested by colleagues from @MPSFootballUnit disgusting act and I will do all I can to remove him from attending Boro games again I’m sure @FSF_FairCop agrees

That seems like a suitable punishment for such a crass thing to do.
A similarly vile event occurred at Wembley a few months ago during Spurs and West Ham’s Carabao Cup clash, when a video of a West Ham fan urinating into a plastic beer cup and then hurling it towards the home fans went viral on social media.
