Bedford Roughyed Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-46424640 Quote Bouncers from Manchester's Factory 251 nightclub are being investigated after an 18-year-old rugby league player was assaulted outside the club. St Helens academy player Joe Sharratt suffered a serious head injury and is in a stable condition in hospital. His mother Jane Sharratt told the BBC that he had a bleed on the brain but he was now "sitting up and talking". Webmaster Edit: Embedded video removed - replaced with link to updated story on Manchester Evening News website With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

langpark Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 We don't know what's gone on before this, and I'm not saying these are angels. But no matter what it was, this is absolutely gutless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver Clothesoff Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 A video clip is essentially only part of a larger story and doesn’t always show the whole story, so I won’t be taking sides till we know more about this incident. However, going off the video clip alone, I can’t seem to see either young lad throwing a punch. Wish the lad the best in his recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oliver Clothesoff Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Seems the nightclub have terminated the contracts of those involved, which could be telling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will 100% have been making a fool of himself, but the bouncers are there to firstly diffuse a situation and if that can't/doesn't happen they're there to restrain until the police get there and both of those are to protect the patrons. They're not there to kick the out of someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blues Ox Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 The crowd comments are interesting as something must have gone on before for the crowd to be wanting the lads to take a pasting. Its still about 8 on 1 and could have been handled a lot better without the need for such violence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rioman Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 The yellow vested cretin who laid the lad out is lucky he's not facing a murder charge. He could easily have been a "one punch killer". if the bang the lads head took when he went down was any worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave T Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Ben Cockayne on twitter abusing the guy with the camera for filming and not wading in helping. Just because Ben enjoys street brawls doesn't mean everybody wants to get involved in this kind of thing. Still, doesn't stop Cockayne calling him a c**t.

He took a very heavy punch before that when he was defenceless too so wouldn't be surprised if he was severely dazed or even out cold before that punch that sent him sprawling.

They're not there to kick the out of someone. Didn’t say they were. I just said that the video clip is merely a small part of what is usually a wider story and can portray things completely differently from the truth. There will be a lot more to come from this and we’ll find out more in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleD Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 25 minutes ago, Johnoco said: It doesn't matter if the lads were being the biggest dickheads who ever drew breath, that level of thuggery is completely unwarranted. If they are there to prevent trouble, they're failing miserably. Shocking behaviour but I thought door staff were supposed to be vetted these days? Well loosely speaking, a lot are agency staff, so when the club says they're sacking them, actually they're probably not their own staff, they'll just use others from the agency or change agency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite, and in fact that person who filmed it is probably the person who will help bring justice to the victims. Some people are just idiots..............if Cockayne had half a brain cell he might have realised this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double whammy. Those bouncers are in a lot of bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
