TBH like I question folk driving around that area at that time like. Surely it's obvious there's a match on. Same with this one today, surely it's obvious there's a parade.

Have seen some poor fucker in a wheelchair being taken out by a car before too. Hadn’t even noticed until some unit smashed his wing mirror off.

bobbydazzla Posted Monday at 19:44 Share Posted Monday at 19:44 (edited) I’ve wondered why the bizzies haven’t closed the road all the way from the Trent to the ground, instead of just shutting the top section Once you get past the Trent the crowds disperse down the various streets and the flashpoint is massively reduced Edited Monday at 19:44 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbers Posted Monday at 20:23 Share Posted Monday at 20:23 (edited) Anyone who thinks the driver is 53 years old needs to get along to specsavers Seen multiple angles and the dude had a clear escape route but decided to drive into the crowd, absolute cunt.

Why would the Police lie about his age? The video I have seen of his door being opened makes it completely plausible that he’s 53. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The absolute guff I saw was from the usual racist knobhead posting a random pic of a young bloke saying he was the driver. Someone else showed same young bloke as one of the policemen on the scene. Post has now been deleted. Seen a lot of people disappointed it's not what they were hoping it to be. Pricks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
