OK - can see something there, but not sure what. Be very surprised if that kind of footage got anyone anywhere close to being in trouble. (Other than people being on the pitch who are not supposed to be).
It shows a person in a grey track suit run up and grab a red shirted man around the neck from behind and pull him to the floor. The other video on this thread offers weight to suggestion that this is the Forest fan at the centre of the alleged stamping incident which Ollie McBurnie has been arrested and bailed over.
Has to be dealt with, was it in self defence….nothing seems to support that opinion and if witness statements are taken, those witnesses present will be Nottingham Forest fans.
Yes it would help but if the Notts forest fan was pulled over by another Blades player before MacBurnie stamped on and I assume studded boots, then questions need to be asked. If MacBurnie was assaulted by the fan he is entitled to use minimum force to defend himself but I think stamping on someone who allegedly had been pulled down by another then that’s more than minimum force.
Technically byte law rates if someone comes at you with a knife and you hit them in defence and they fall to the ground that is your minimum force, of course many as would I would them give the assailant a bit of kick to make sure he doesn’t get up to try and attack you again.
