Cantona kicked a fan that year, and he was banned for nine months. Talking about that experience again, Cantona still insisted that he did not do wrong.

In the 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace, Crystal Palace fan Simmons insulted Cantona as a "French bastard", and a furious Cantona then gave Simmons a flying kick. Recalling this experience, Cantona said: "Before that, I was scolded by the fans thousands of times, never responded, but you know sometimes people are very fragile."
"If there is any remorse, take I do have a regret that I didn't kick harder. I was banned for nine months. They wanted to make to knock me into reverse."
