Re: Marvin Ekpiteta assault
Who knows what went on. The fact that he got him in a headlock suggests that there was some close quarter grappling.
In any event what’s all this self righteous bullshit about dumping him because he is a thug, have none of you pussies ever been in a fight .

Re: Marvin Ekpiteta assault
Not one that resulted in a prison sentence.
But it most likely won’t come to that, I hope, so just a storm in a teacup. Just handbags perhaps. I’m not assuming his guilt in any way. Far from it. Who knows what went on, who knows what provocation he suffered. The law will make a decision based on hearing all the facts as presented.
Then hopefully he can put it behind him.

Re: Marvin Ekpiteta assault
What makes you think that "it's something about him" that i feel he may be guilty? I hope he's not, but at the moment it's not looking hopeful.CreamofSumYungGai wrote: ↑Thu Jun 20, 2019 9:38 pmYou seem to think Marvin is guilty?Chief crazy horse wrote: ↑Thu Jun 20, 2019 7:09 pmIt doesn't take too much these days for some young people to lose their rag.Millennial Snowflake wrote: ↑Thu Jun 20, 2019 5:13 pm
This. Most people don’t put someone in a headlock without some kind of provocation. Sounds like the other bloke ran his mouth one too many times and is now crying about it. Grass gets mown
What is it about him that leads you to believe that?

Re: Marvin Ekpiteta assault
Schoolboy stuff, being schooled in Hackney and Stepney a fairly common occurrence. Thereafter in a dojo where I regularly came out second best and bowed in respect to the guy who kicked (literally) my arse (or head). The only time police were involved is if they were my opponent. Kiai.

Based on what I've read on my news feed.
And what makes you think that "it's something about him" that I am forming this view?

Re: Marvin Ekpiteta assault
Because you've got nothing else to form an opinion on.
Given we weren't there and are not privy to the evidence so far, I've formed my opinion that this seems pretty unlikely from how he's conducted himself, on and off the pitch, over the past 18 months or whatever it's been. Nothing from that would indicate he is the sort to go around getting into rows and lumping people for no good reason.

Re: Marvin Ekpiteta assault
It's a fair point.
Darius Henderson had a trial before joining us, was found not guilty and the circumstances seemed much more damning for him.
Getting someone in a headlock is a bit of a defensive measure, kind of suggesting the other guy might have thrown the first punch and missed.
I actually think it'll come to nothing.

Re: Marvin Ekpiteta assault
Most likely outcome. Unless there are independent witnesses it’s one persons word against another. CCTV is OK even if available but don’t record what was said so provocation will be missed. Non-story. Let the authorities deal with it and wait and see the outcome.eagwgw wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 10:57 am It's a fair point.

If we are gonna be consistent I don't think Marv has much to worry about although hopefully someone at the club will take him down a peg or two, talking during a film is clearly not on.

Mail have clearly already made their mind up.
This bloke sounds like a joke - never mind being taken to the cinema by his mum, he's now giving evidence from behind a screen and has admitted to screaming when Marv put him in a headlock.

He's the alleged victim in an assault case. If he wants to avoid the man he alleges attacked him, he is entitled to that.CreamofSumYungGai wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 1:44 pmObviously a bit tongue in cheek but come on, giving evidence from behind a f*** screen?
