Well, It appears that a man has been arrested in connection with the attack, lets hope they have got the right man and that the clubs can now move on building bridges, Also lets hope it turns out that this guy was not a fan but just a thug out for trouble on the day. www.halifaxcourier.co.uk/news/Ma ... 6569601.jp

aware of an article on our main forum however like the one on your page, it will get locked probably like this one will due to it being an ongoing investigation

I cant see why it will get locked, I aint said anything other than what is already published in the public domain. All i wanted to say was lets hope they have the right guy, so that he can get what he deserves and the clubs can put it behind them, Unlike david who will have this for the rest of his life .

And who ever it is should get a ban for life...

Innocent til proven guilty!!! Fundamental basis of British law! long may that continue!

WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING !!!!!!

I said lets hope they have got the right man, Not lets pin the blame on him anyway.

Who's shouting like???

Well they didnt get the right man did they, and it appeared to me that a lot were ready to pin the blame on him, like Robin said in this country your supposed to be innocent until proven otherwise

I know they haven't stated its him. But neither have they stated it isn't him. Basically it isn't him until they prove otherwise

No they havent stated it isnt him yet, but they will in time.

I don't gamble really demon, but I'm prepared to on this one! - that the assailant(s) is NOT the arrested man!

I only missed the Toulouse game last year out of the entire league programme. I thought this year I might get all of them in but I will be giving the Shay a miss next year. I thought it was just me but surprisingly (to me at least) it appears I'm not the only one!

Why so Robin? I would like as many away fans to come to the BF as possible. We don't want people to boycott us so why would we boycott anyone else.

You have to remember that many people who post on Forums represent the extreme ends of the fan base.

perhaps i might feel differently in a few months time Martin but I've spoken to quite a few that for now at least, Fax away will not be a fixture they will be watching unless it's on telly!

As far as i am aware its vice versa on that one pal, However i dont know why your feeling like that, the agression was towards halifax that day by what is now clearly mindless band wagon jockeys who only went along for trouble and not for the day supporting your team.

I have noticed that you have been very defensive towards the person arrested and bailed, is there any paticular reason for this ?. do you know him ?. ( and i am not claiming you do, just a straight forward question ) I can't understand why you defend someone so much if you dont know the person connected.

From personal experience i dont hold out any hope for the assailent to be caught, A friend of mine was attacked on water lane in halifax, was in hospital for 5 months, suffered blood clots which had to be removed and strokes due to the damage caused, the police arrested and knew who had done it but for the lack of forensic proof never even got a slap on the wrist. it is now a good 18 month - 2 years on and still nothing. The man has never been the same since.
