| Meant with regards to claiming damages from the attackers/employers rather than screwing soliola over.

| I am a doorman around Bolton, not all door men are the same. I've been on for over 2 years and I have never witnessed a door man doing anything like this. We take the **** heads out of the club professionally without causing harm to ourself, the customers or themselves.
You may see a door man going over the top when they have been hit when trying to do there job... No it isn't the right thing to do but I think most peoples reactions these days are to do anything to protect themselves. These days people are carrying screw drivers, knives etc...
I am one of the moody door men and the reason behind this is because when you just want everyone to have a safe and brilliant night it gets spoilt by some **** head who then wants to fight outside and says things like "ill be back after you finish with a gun"....
But I agree if it was door men who did this Soliola they are bang out of order I would of stepped in and stopped them.
Hope he recovers quickly..

| All the best Sia and I hope he is back playing soon.
Whilst I am sure some bouncers are perfectly nice, reasonable people there is no getting away from the fact some are complete idiots, to put it mildly, and there is no way they should be doing the job that they do. Indeed I have come across far more bad ones than good, although things these days are a lot better than they used to be. When they do step out of line it also seems to be very rare that bouncers ever get done for the things they do.

You are making an awful lot of assumptions there. For a start according to some Saints fans Soliola is teetotal so may well not have been drunk. Also as many people have said on this thread it seem quite a lot of people dont share your rose tinted view of bouncers and their behaviour and I think some posters would disagree whether some go looking for fights or not. I also dont really see how you can say it is both their faults when you know nothing about what has happened.

Do not bother with the reply the person who posted its his apparently 1st post. So obviously from another club apart from Wigan or Saints looking to stir it up. Just ban him.

I have seen bouncers at clubs in Wigan which will go unnamed who have been extremely "heavy handed" with people simply falling asleep, I think the main aggravating factor is when the person resists being ejected. Some bouncers are far from being angels and when they come in two's and three's they can go over the top.

He s my last reply on this thread because every 1 his just 2nd guessing , When NO 1 knows the FACTs , I ve got a scar on my head 6 inch long off ejecting a punter from bar aqua in Ashton because he was walking round the pub leathered with his coc out , he was a big fella and well know , it took 2 of us to get him out because he lost the plot when he got told to leave . I ended up with internal and external stitches , so I don't know why people are trying to make out that it's ALL bouncers and never a punters
Like already been said get well soon Sia

Like already been said get well soon Sia'"I did state "SOME" bouncers have a tendency to be unnecessarily heavy handed when ejecting people, but that's normally in cases where people try to resists being kicked out.

That's the dangers associated with taking the role. My experience of bouncers is very negative, you must sadly be in the minority.

27588.gif "Games as big as a grand finals define individuals and clubs. Remember we are only renting these shirts, I had my time in Pat Richards shirt. Ellery and Faz had there time in Sean's, Hampo and Radders in Sam's. You have to make a mark in these shirts that's still there the day you hand it over to someone else. So be aware for 80 minutes you are not only playing but also writing history and creating a legacy. How many people get to actually write history, not many. A big stage demands big players, be inspired. You play for Wigan, now go do it. Good luck." - Martin Offiah, 2010.:27588.gif |

That is Saints and the RFL playing it down. Heard from someone very in the know that the assault was a lot more serious than reports suggest and he is in a very bad way. Thats all I'll say on it on here

Stir it up??
Ban him??
Why? Maybe the mods should start banning people for trying to get people banned
or bad grammar
in both cases you need to tread carefully ![NAUGHTY eusa_naughty.gif](images/smilies//eusa_naughty.gif)

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

| This thread seems to have drifted drastically from a well wishing thread. If someone wants to start off a well wishing thread, again, they're more than welcome. If that thread goes the same way as this there will be bans handed out. Speculation on a pending case is not allowed.
