I didn’t mean to do anything in front of them but I celebrated and then got booked for starting people throwing stuff.
“I never left the pitch so if the stewards have had a tough one there I apologise. But I didn’t mean any harm in it. I never should have gone to their fans.
“But I don’t score many and I do tend to lose the plot when I do.”
