i think the police were the ones to actually get to him first…
i did wonder if it was something like that… if he was a cp fan and taken the wrong turn and the liverpool fans set about the car so he panicked
Leave the speculation. As for the colour of the car, who the hell cares, seriously injured people are in hospital.
WAIT FOR THE FACTS
Got to agree mate, speculation just starts rumours off…it will all come out in time.
I just hope everybody involved will be ok.
the point was i was responding to the lefty loon that was quite happy to say it was a white british man. i was pointing out they said a lot of things.
By reading all the local online newspapers by Newquest who cover every county in the UK they never mention the race , skin colour or ethnicity of an offender the police are looking for, or are reporting about for a crime, but they always do if the perpetrator is a white Caucasian and print the photo, display the still of the CCTV footage of the offender , or show the video of the crime.
They stated his etnicity to avoid a repeat of the troubles in Southport…nothing more nothing less, ie they learned a lesson.
I personally am pleased it was a non terrorist non Islamic scenario this time,… if anybody kicked off in the slightest way,.Starmer would have them in jail faster than you can say ‘‘Far Right’’.
I understand that, they didn’t want a repeat of what happened after Southport.
For Newsquest newspapers, the readers only get to see the photo of the perpetrator who was black ,muslim or a traveller, once they have been sent to prison.
And that is exactly the problem with mob mentality and hooliganism with football.
None of us know exactly what happened or why it happened. But videos I’ve seen were of football fans attacking the car allegedly before anyone was hit with the car. Whether the car should have been there or not is a different issue. The road was not closed to the public yet a massive hoard feel it’s ok to take over the place in massive crowds.
If you are being attacked by a number of people in such a large crowd regardless of the circumstances you would panic and rationality goes out the window.
The police have stuff to answer for either more roads should have been closed off or more control of such a large crowd.
No one accepts the trouble that football fans cause and yes it might be the minority but it’s always football that causes mayhem, other sports fans act responsibly and don’t cause such massive problems over a bunch of people kicking a bloody football around a field in this case.
i mean really get a grip having such reactions to some team winning a bloody game. By all means celebrate but do it decently and getting drunk is also half the cause but hey why not get trashed to celebrate and cause mayhem.
I won’t speculate on how it happened but hope everyone recovers from i juries etc. We will probably never get a full story of what happened as there will be those who saw what happened and there will be those who believe what happened who actually saw naff all.
Sad state of affairs as usual.
I have heard only a couple of reports, but 2 things that stood out for me were that the car horn was blowing repeatedly and that the engine was revving up very high.
Could it be that the man in panic got his foot trapped on the accelerator and, as most people only use that foot for the brake, desperately tried to stop by standing on the clutch? That would explain both those reports.
News reports indicate that the arrested man is also being charged with driving under the influence of drugs and apparently he followed an ambulance through a barrier that had been raised in order to grant access to the ambulance that was responding to a reported heart attack in the crowd.
I think it might be called drip feeding
No too much not too little
Im sure they have their reasons, time will tell
Looks like you already have Simon, ‘‘drunken mobs of football fans’’
,? …
And your actual views on football fans pertain to the 70s and early 80s rather than the reality of today.
Sure there are the contingent of d/heads in every club, but any trouble there may be is usually ‘Their d/heads v Our d/heads’’
Football violence today on the whole is the exception rather than the rule.
It is quite family orientated these days, kids with their Mams and Dads, etc…lads out for a good day out.
Put it this way I have been going to games since I was a boy,.I can say in all truth I have NEVER been in a fight during, or before and after a game…you will more likely find me and many others having a pint with rival fans.. on many occasions.
To be pedantic it wasn’t ‘‘a game’’ they won, they won 25 games and drew 9, that is what it was all about,.Premier League champions.
More speculation…
I said earlier I would not speculate, but seeing as you aimed this at me…I heard different version from a mate who was there…(tbf he was not a full witness, he was told on the day)
The car had hit somebody but carried on,.that was the point where he was chased.
You say ‘mob rule’ and ’ hooliganism’ but to take the football aspect out of the equation for a minute…
If you were at a crowded event, with your family ,and some ■■■■ …(to speculate once more… maybe off his tits on Charlie, p1ssed up to the eyeballs…or maybe both ) ran someone over, then proceeded to litrerally mow down dozens of others (have you seen the vids doing the rounds? ) and more so if it was one of your own family injured ! , …I don’t know about you Simon, but I’d want to rip his effin head off…that was my point about him being lucky he can still.walk.
And that has the far end of.naff all to do with me being a football fan either mate.
Better off waiting to hear the truth
2 big post’s one telling each others opinion
Who knows
Yeah well thats what I said at start, but seeing as the post was directed at me I answered it.
In reality he was replying to you opinion as you were to his
All said it’s drip feeding news we are getting,
Yeah I know..
It’s all cool mate.
What information is released
He’s white
He lives in derby
He takes drugs
He followed an ambulance
He’s a uk resident
And the charges against him
It’s drip feeding till things cool down
Some 11 people remain in hospital after the crash at the victory parade.
I was speaking generally, in reply to your comment.
I suggested what may the case not fact like lots of people are, but still no matter what has happened does not give the right to mob mentality no matter what.
Justice should be served by the justice system if we ever find out exactly what went on.
So apologies if you think I was speculating but I was commenting based on things I’ve read and seen. But again people have been told not to post videos online about it but people can’t help themselves.
It’s all a very sad state of affairs that people can’t self regulate themselves.
But don’t worry I’ll not say anything else on the matter, i will wait and see what we found out long term.
