You say that it doesn't mean they were all involved simultaneously.
whether they were all punching or kicking him at the same time or taking it in turns makes no difference, Surely you are not suggesting otherwise.
I would suggest that, if there was one main perpetrator, why did the other two not attempt to beak it up?, reading the newspaper version it appears that he suffered repeated blows to his face by one or more persons.

We will have to wait and see what is eventually revealed, but whatever the outcome is, the fact remains, no matter if they all simultaneously took part in the attack or took turns individually, that would still be an uneven and cowardly act in my book, no matter what type of spin you choose to put on the it.

I am not putting any spin on it. I will reply by PM.

Ok, I have responded to your PM.

By any chance are you the third chap yet to be apprehended?

Haha no. If I was I wouldn't be posting on here about it.

that is exactly what the 3rd person involved would say when caught out discussing it

Haha. I can assure you I wasn't there. I've just heard a very different version of events to the one portrayed in the papers that's all.

if you say you know, yet you dont say then in my book you shouldn't say anything.

Well I don't play by that book I'm afraid. All I have said is that the version of events from people who were there and involved is different to what is in the papers. Therefore people shouldn't be so quick to jump to conclusions and refer to them as "scum" until they know the details.

It isn't my place to put the exact details on a public forum whilst there is a police investigation taking place.

They're all scum and should rot in hell for their crimes.

You include Gleeson in that as well then?

Why would he? There's nothing presently in the public domain to suggest he's anything more than an innocent victim of a brutal, unprovoked assault at the moment.

Unless you care to enlighten us, and drop the innuendo.
