With both sides receiving nil points and no replay. The behaviour would quickly improve as the players and mangers would tell the "supporters" to stay away.
A 16 year old or even 14 year old being sworn at and worse threatened by grown men is unlikely to want to make things worse by abandoning a match.
The clubs have the responsibility to ensure they are policing their supporters.
It goes through to all levels, would you want your kids to see you being torn apart on TV and social media because you judged a tackle differently to people with the benefit of multiangle replays? Even VAR hasn’t solved the issue of mistakes.
