The Arsenal fan didn't hit Smalling because Smalling had spotted him running up to him beforehand, where as sadly for Grealish he didn't spot our fan in time which led to him being punched.

Also the argument that has been used against us by a lot of people which should also be used against Arsenal and Hibs was that the Stewards were slow to respond to the pitch invasion, and what if the fan was carrying a weapon?

My point anyway is just because there was a slight difference in how it all played out between Birmingham's pitch invader actually being successful in attacking Grealish whilst Arsenal's pitch invader failed to attack Smalling doesn't mean that the intent wasn't there from the Arsenal fan and whatever punishment we get Arsenal should also get the same.
