Two men fight on the Tube

01-05-2014 01:17AM #1

Not sure if anyone has seen this yet. Basically the old geezer hits a few digs on the younger lad. The younger lad then flips and hits a few digs back before delivering a knee to the face knocking the old guy unconscious. All the while the man who is filming it is shouting 'Leave it, calm down' :rolleyes:

I honestly am conflicted with this. On one hand the aul geezer done himself no favours but on the other hand he is an old geezer and to knock him unconscious ffs??!!.... He could be up for manslaughter had the aul guy died due to his injuries.
Id like to think the young lad should have controlled himself but he did take a box in the stones.

Thoughts?

Guess what violence get you .... violence in return. And no I don't agree with hitting old people

Chucky the tree · 01-05-2014 01:25AM

No huge issue with the punches, but the knee at the end was just plain scummy.

See this is what happens when Subway goes Halal.

Old lad went for the lads bollix with a few punches, sorta asked for a knocking out tbh.

Attack someone, your asking to get knocked da fcuk out

Rhys Essien · 01-05-2014 01:37AM

The old lad could have been mentally ill to start hitting the young lad but how hard was it for the young fella to just walk away.What he did was pure scum.Knocking an OAP out ffs.:mad:

I'd agree somewhat with that and had the same feeling initially ... you should walk away from 'eccentrics' and laugh, but the ol fella did go for the balls, and that means all rules are out.

I was always under the impression the the warnings posted read "Mind the gap".......................... I'm beginning to think that g should actually be a J

Punching someone in the balls is scummy. Kneeing someone in the face is scummy.

Verdict: Auld lad looked for it.

Come on! I hate this argument. He could have been perfectly fine. They guy he attacked could have been mentally ill.
Regardless, if the young guy was being attacked he had a right to fight back. The knee was too much and a scummy move but nothing wrong with the punches.
Would you say the same if the young guy started this and the old on knocked him out?

You play with fire, you get burnt

The young guy has fought a lot, at some stage, so the old boy was a silly git who quite possibly found what he wasn't looking for. The speed the old lad starts throwing punches at a stranger suggests he is a stroppy type - how many people resort to punching and then go for the groin, if you are not used to trying to hurt people? Young buck is cool as a cucumber, clocks him with an elbow, then finishes with his knee - so he's fought a good bit. I do believe they deserve one another, fate threw them together, with the younger lad being the instrument of further education in this case.

Aldgate East station, district line, good old east Landaan. Most boring train journey on the planet, they were just trying to liven things up!

Young lad tried to get up and walk away to be fair to him. Then the old guy went for the balls. All bets were off at that stage.

kneemos · 01-05-2014 07:22AM

Best to adopt the Viet Cong policy of never to start a fight unless you know you can win.
The old guy looked a bit surprised that anybody would actually hit him,but it's hard to have sympathy for him after the ball punch.

Do people go around with their phones on permanent record these days?

old_aussie · 01-05-2014 07:52AM

Was that Face kicker on the train?

glued · 01-05-2014 07:57AM

Without knowing what happened before hand it fully appears as if the old fella is instigating it. Hopefully he is ok but it's hard to have any sympathy for him as he looks fully like the aggressor.

893bet · 01-05-2014 08:56AM

Last kick wasnt needed. Very excessive.

anncoates · 01-05-2014 08:58AM

It's the people that film this stuff that need to be battered.

bumper234 · 01-05-2014 09:06AM

Old guy got what he deserved, silly ****er could easily have been stabbing him in the stomach instead of trying to punch him in the nads. Young lad defended himself and for those saying the knockout was scummy, An unconscious attacker will no longer be able to attack you.

Gringo180 · 01-05-2014 09:09AM

That old bollocks couldnt box eggs ffs id say those punches tiddled the young lad.

The young lad was getting up to put his ipad in his man satchel purse thing.

The old lad went for bollox very low behaviour . He asked for a beating after that.

Dyr · 01-05-2014 09:14AM
