I know it's those rowdy soccer hooligans but check this out:

Dead set. Hand on his gun ... what did these cops fear from the disabled girl? I'd hate to see this sort of policing at a league game.

As the reporter says .

There are 2 sides to every story

Classic media. Report on the dramatic story from a random bloke before reporting on what a commissioner said had happened...

Lol this guy apparently tried to push his way into the members grandstand to get a full strength beer. Pushed a copper in the process ... no disabled child in sight ... What a douch and silly me for posting so quickly!!

 

[ManEagle]

One mans rant, typical reporting for sensationalism and what actually happened two very different things.

It is the fault of suburban grounds. It wouldn't have happened at Homebush, Moore Park, WankBest or Suncorp.

And the Brookie surface.
Don't let that go unscathed...

We're too busy storing our tea with silver spoons to notice (or so I read).

Gotta get the good stuff!!

"WankBest"

Thanks for that. I just soiled myself.

So close brookie down then???

I can't take the credit for that one, somebody else posted it on here first. I can't remember who it was. I hope it sticks. (no pun intended)

Pretty sure I heard that one on the 'Full credit to the boys' podcast.

All I need to know right here
"Taking the kids out on Mother's Day and on a school night ahead of NAPLAN this week...."

WTFF has NAPLAN got to do with anything?

 

[Bearfax]

Sounds very sus to me . This is one of those cases where one side of the story has hit the media without looking carefully at the evidence produced. I wasn't there so I can make no judgement, but the evidence does not seem to support the gentleman's story. Is this another Stewart type story where the alleged victim gets all the publicity. This is why I don't trust the commercial Media in the slightest. They are just there to sensationalise and titillate the bread and circuses public. Facts and evidence are irrelevant

 

[lsz]

Amazing how we place so much relevance on either side.....the fan must be wrong...

Here is his response to the claims

Clearly it is not a clear cut event. For what it is worth i know a couple of people who know him and seem to think his story is correct

 

[mave]

Sounds like dkheads on both sides tbh.

Getting between a man and a full strength beer? Of course that is is going to create a flammable situation!

Could be, the problem is these days social media carries it further than it probably should.
Whether it's a misunderstanding or not it somehow becomes out and out rant and Ray Hadley is informed - it's we said / they said.

If we are to take his twitter post above as gospel conversely I ask why wouldn't it have been prudent to go to Security early to ask/inform re toilet facilities and why?
Surely a recon mission is the norm if you are in this position.

When security official grab your arm and you ignore them they generally get a bit antsy.
Did he explain any of this to them?

A guy going to a disabled toilet by himself generally raises a flag ( not as much as two but..)

Yep, the police and security may have been heavy handed but without all the facts we'll never know.

There's a reason that there are no garbage bins on train stations these days unfortunately, it's the world we live in - perceived compliance is key.

Not taking sides...
