‘The village idiot could have KILLED someone today’: Graeme Souness rages after Manchester United fan hurled a burning flare towards ex-Liverpool player Jamie Carragher during stadium invasion

Graeme Souness raged protesting Manchester United fans 'could have killed somebody' as a flare was launched towards the Sky Sports pundits.

Hundreds of furious fans had stormed the Old Trafford pitch, which later caused the postponement of their Premier League clash with Liverpool.

A video uploaded to Twitter showed the moment a red flare was aimed towards Sky's live broadcast, falling narrowly short of hitting one of the pundits.

Instead of showing any concern, the fans continued to chant against the Red Devils' owner, the Glazers.

Sky pundit Graeme Souness said someone 'could have been killed' if hit by a projectile.
