No doubt it's already up on the other board, where a percentage of them will be walking around with big diamond cutter hard-ons at the thought of some 'action' at our stadium.
High Jinx
Trying to do the stewards job, and moreso, doesn't seem worth it anymore I guess.
Don't think Stewards are supposed to assault people are they?Originally Posted by surge
3 grown men doing that to a young lad and a kid, how much of an arse hole do you have to be to do that. Why wasn't anyone standing up for them? Just because they support a different team, it's pathetic.Lee Thomas, 34, Gareth Walters, 34, and Royston Davies, 47, admitted assaulting a 22-year-old Manchester United fan with his brother in a stand for home fans at the Cardiff City stadium.
It happened when the pair "were unable to contain their emotions" during last December's game which ended 1-5.
The three men were sentenced before Cardiff magistrates on Friday.
The victim was assaulted while stewards were escorting him and his 16-year-old brother from the stand.
I take it you didn’t read all the report ?
“Some fans protected the fans being attacked”
I did see that bit after I posted, fair play to those who stood up to them. ****ing bullies. How can a 47 year old man assault a 16 year old ffs.
Stewards and the club need to be shit hot on these things. It's wrong to assault people because of this but I'm not surprised and nor should the club have been.
I'm sure I saw one guy wearing red from a distance as he was chased down the steps. Why wouldn't he have been challenged prior to taking his seat? Then later on I definitely heard one guy singing a united song.
For their own safety they shouldn't be there. No excuse to hit them but most of us know the score when it comes to football.
People that don't should be protected by being refused entry or when identified, swiftly removed.
Thing is, how are the stewards meant to know? They must have had tickets in the home end because you have to show your tickets about a thousand times before you get to your seat in the Canton these days, so short of asking them to name 5 City players, they won't know anybody's an away fan until something like this happens.
Crazy stuff, our fans really are way too nice these days.....
Exactly my thoughts when I saw the ages.
Just like Racism in football is still rife in many eastern European countries (and here to an extent),we condemn it as people still living in the dark ages.
Just as Sectarianism is still rife in Scottish football and we condemn it as people still living in the dark ages, we still have this tribal stigma in football both in the UK and all over the world where if a supporter of the opposition has the audacity to knowingly or unwittingly go into the home end, or opposing end, they risk a good kicking from the “lads” that love to hide and be hard men in big crowds.
The same guys who’d probably shit yellow without a belly full of ale and the security of a big crowd.
Still. We all know it’s the unwritten rule in the game and those who risk it are “asking for trouble” We are all still living in the dark ages, when it comes to football.
Sadly, you're right. I wonder if the same people who get so agitated about having an away fan sat so close to them would behave the same way at a rugby game? I don't understand why, but I'm pretty sure they wouldn't, yet it's come to be considered the norm at football.
Hasn't there been a few instances lately where opposing fans have been attacked by Wales fans at the Millennium during International games? I seem to remember one where a few women were attacked by some knuckle draggers.
They should have been removed safely from the ground without the chance of violence from home fans. Buses should have been parked up outside all home ends in readiness of such a situation, said fans put on these buses safely and taken non stop immediately to Manchester City centre, let off the buses with a cheery goodbye by those policing the buses. Nobody hurt, nobody abused and fans returned home safe & sound.
How would they have got back to Merthyr Tydfil though
That's the joke!!!!!How would they have got back to Merthyr Tydfil though
Joke???? F*cking joke, I was deadly serious.........🤪🤪🤪
Personally, I don’t mind away fans and would quite like to sit and have a laugh with them. A plastic Utd or pool fan from Ely or Merthyr is another matter completely.....
You have to ask how did they purchase tickets for the home end and then I would question the CPS so they got slapped if I was the judge i would have thrown it out of court asking them what did you expect....Fecking society's gone soft.
So you would just let 3 grown men away with assaulting kids just because they bought a football ticket?
SOCIETY GONE SOFT YOU CAN'T EVEN REPEATEDLY PUNCH SOMEONE FOR SUPPORTING A DIFFERENT FOOTBALL TEAM ANYMORE!!!!!111!!!
Oh give over......one was 22 and his brother was 16 I seen plenty of 16 - 22 year olds put 35 - 40 year olds out cold on their arses.
you need to get out more. they were old enough to know better.
Somebody who owns or works at a youth club defending 34-47 year olds attacking a 16 year old isn't a great look to be honest
So what?
So you think it's ok they were assaulted then because they bought a ticket in the wrong end of a football match?
And you think the guys who assaulted them deserve no punishment?
Oh they bought a ticket in the wrong end bless em.....if you gonna do that keep your mouth shut and don't wear colours.
these obviously didn't, so got what they deserved for being so stupid.
