Re: O/T Assault near stadium
Very traumatic for me and the missus these last 24 hours. Went to a friends funeral at St Alban’s yesterday, full requiem, lovely service with a few drinks at St Peter’s club by the Harlequins ground after. We decided to walk from the church to the club, two decidedly dodger looking characters passed us on Newport Rd just before the turning into Minster Rd. As we walked up Minster Rd, they’d bloody stalked us, ripped my missus’s bag of her wrist, leaving just the strap there. I turned to chase them, bloody colliding with a wheelie bin and hit the deck, ripped trousers and a gash on the knee.
A man came around the corner from Newport Rd and I shouted ‘Stop them’, he grabbed the one but the one with the bag ran off, across the road and up Stacey Rd. So we had the one who insisted that he didn't know the other fella, he was just asking directions!! The chap who apprehended him was only an off duty copper, I phoned 999 and, fair play, officers were there within 10 minutes.
They had the piece of shit on the floor, ran a check on him, surprise, surprise there was a warrant out for him for another matter. They took our particulars and offered to take us to the Heath, we seemed ok bar for a wrenched wrist and a gash on the knee, so declined.
When they were putting the shithouse in the police car he actually had a go at my missus, saying it was all her fault that he’d been arrested, she didn’t hold back with her response.
All that was in the bag was her mobile and make up, no cards, no cash. The phone was cancelled immediately but has cost me £100 on the excess on the insurance but she should have a new phone early next week.

Hopefully they can pick up his pal and they can both do some bird time

The police have been marvellous, called to the house last night, a few phone calls this morning. Makes me think that there’s more to these crims than meets the eye. I reckon they’re involved in a few things and the police are out to nail them.
We were asked if we’d face them in court, of course we said yes. There’s no shortage of volunteers amongst our friends who are willing to pack the gallery and stare them out either.
Anyway, three points today please.

I would have thought there’s a good chance the other one has a record and maybe has been in cahoots before with the one that was arrested. I suppose the main thing is that Splott Parker and his wife are alright, but, even though it’s getting near fifty years ago now, I remember how annoyed I was when my first car I had after passing my test was broken into when I parked in Sophia Gardens one night. That was nowhere near as bad as what happened yesterday, but it was still an awful feeling - there are some right bastards around.

I got my car done twice in Canton during a city game, window smashed , tried to take radio and one morning was woken by the alarm and chased after the thing as it was being driven up the street .
It was found in Fairwater .
Annoying but as you say it's not an assault or a robbery with violence which is bad news

Re: O/T Assault near stadium
Sorry to hear about this SP.
What the f are thing’s coming to
I also noted in the media that the cowardly criminals frequently blame the victims for their actions /crimes
Glad to hear you and your wife are ok though

Re: O/T Assault near stadium
Awful experience for you and your missus Splott hope your both ok.
Utter scum. Probably get a fine or at best a few months which to these filth is just an occupational hazard.

Re: O/T Assault near stadium
Dear me Splott P. Hope you and Mrs SP are OK.

Sorry to have read this Splottie. That must have been a terrifying ordeal for both of you. I hope you both get over it quickly and that your day in court reaps reward.
I'm dedicating the three points we will win today to you and your better half 👍

Glad you're both alright anyway.
Absolute scum and although they seem to constantly get away with shop theft it seems the police can put more resources into robbery so hopefully will get caught and sentenced.
It's a shame in some ways there wasn't a card in there with limited funds in the account, you would have got the money back and the stupid twats usually show up on CCTV trying to use it.

Re: O/T Assault near stadium
I’m sorry to read about your ordeal SP.

Physical damage and loss is bad enough. Hope you both get over the psychological damage, too. Remember, there's more good people out there than bad. Random acts of kindness just don't make the headlines though.

There are some right lowlifes around, lower city rd by Newport rd and over towards splott is probably the most dodgy part of Cardiff these days in the evening. The sheer amount of half way houses and hostels mean there are always plenty of loons off on their little missions of no good.

Re: O/T Assault near stadium
Sorry to hear about your ordeal yesterday Splottie. I can understand your anger, and hope you and your good lady manage to get over it as soon as possible.
On a side note, I’ve always thought that in instances like this, the guy that got caught, should get double the punishment if he refuses to identify his partner in crime.
Absolute scum.

Re: O/T Assault near stadium
Sorry to get political but what pisses me off is the horrendously lenient sentences that offenders get for crimes like this when they get caught once in a blue moon if at all. Then you have former ministers like Rory Stewart calling for an end to short-term prison sentences because "sending people to prison on short sentences does not have any deterrent effect at all and is astonishingly expensive to the tax-payer".
Maybe it isn't a deterrent and is punitive but jeez, things like this should be.
You have organised looting in London at the moment and no doubt the vast majority will get away with it. You can’t blame poverty for being a ****.
We know there's not enough police officers so you can only blame them so much. However I do think the police aren't doing enough either.

I know 99% of people wouldn't get involved and it takes a good samataran or in your case a bit of luck with a off-duty police officer to actually do something.

I work in Roath and the increase in little toerags on bikes, ebikes and escooters with hoods up and scarves over their faces is incredible. You're right about the increase in social housing for youngsters and halfway houses in the area, there are incidents daily and police everywhere. Albany road is turning into a shithole, sadly

Disgusting animals, I'm sorry you've had to go through that, I hope you and your wife are OK now, and well done on standing up to them, they need to be taken off the streets and hopefully smashed up in prison.

It does seem to have got much worse, my old works had an office there everyone hated it and called it Albanian Road.

Re: O/T Assault near stadium
Sorry to hear about your ordeal SP. It makes my blood boil when I read about scum like this. At the very minimum they should have their possessions sold and the proceeds given to you and your wife for the ordeal they've put you through.

I think to say 99% of the public wouldn't get involved, is probably inaccurate and unfair.

Re: O/T Assault near stadium
Sorry to hear about the misfortune these lowlifes brought upon your wife and yourself, SP.
The cuts & bruises can heal, but the psychological effects can last much longer.
Without ever having met you, I'd wager if you'd caught the one who got away, he'd have come off second best against an enraged SP.

Possessions?
Let me guess... a chavy wardrobe of clothes that you could fit into a rucksack, a balaclava, and a disk-cutter perhaps.

I was thinking more along the lines of an electric scooter, which is de rigeur amongst some of these scum nowadays. Failing that, remove and sell one of his kidneys (only joking !).

Re: O/T Assault near stadium
Thanks from both of us for your concern👍have had a few phone calls from the police today, during and after the game. Apparently the other piece of shite has been arrested. We’ve been asked to ID them but not face to face, we’ve said that we’d go face to face, no problem. The police realise that they’ve offended the wrong family, there’s a growing army out for revenge. Not sure if this is the wrong attitude to have but, dear God, we’ve got some very angry allies. Thank you again everyone 👍

That's good to know that the other piece of shit has been apprehended .
I love your strength of character in saying you'd go face-to-face with them.
Yeah, get them in court and get your family/friends to stare then down. Don't let their scummy supporters feel comfortable.

Terrible event, I was walking around this area earlier in the week with Doris and was glad to get to the retail park on Newport Road, spent a lot of time in this area growing up, all areas have changed over time obviously but its particularly bad around this location, this will certainly make us plan our walks with a bit more attention to detail in future, hope you and yours put it behind you, and has no lasting impact.

The only issue with that is those doing these type of crimes will use it.
