Default City striker gets 8 months inside

3 blokes wait for you outside a casino and when they start you leather one and you get 8 months? This story might be a bit light on facts but that sounds harsh even for a city player.

Quote:
Former Manchester City footballer Kelvin Etuhu has been jailed for eight months for a drunken street brawl which left a man with a broken jaw.

The striker, 22, attacked Owen Fitzpatrick following a dispute in a casino cocktail bar, Warrington Crown Court heard.

The six-foot footballer was caught on camera kicking the victim three times on the ground after he floored him with a punch.

Etuhu finally got out of the car and launched the attack.

The court heard how the player felled Mr Fitzpatrick with a single punch and, when he was on the ground, kicked him three times and inflicted the broken jaw

I suspect they are the reasons why. If you @#%&! someone on the ground you're a @#%&!, end of

Should have walked away after sparking him out. Still, this Fitzpatrick sounds like a bit of a gobshite so he probably deserved a good kicking.

Suppose if he’d beaten up a DJ for not playing some Phil Collins, he’s have got away with it

He started the physical attack and kicked the man repeatedly while he was on the deck. Clear cut case tbh Judge Judy.

No, you're doing the job properly. You don't want him coming back up for another pop, do you?

3 v 2. God knows what they had planned if they were half as hard as they thought they were.

No justice here!

Shouldn't be starting fights if you don't want your jaw broken. Or pressing charges if you wait somewhere with 3 v 2 to kick the £#%&! out of them. You gambled and lost etc.
Although if Etuhu was being flash he probably should have been stabbed, that way you're keeping it safe, jab jab, run. No broken jaws.

%@#$&!s. he kicked him three times when he was down and broke his jaw.

Fitzpatrick sounds like a @#%&! and deserved to be chinned, but you stop when you've floored them in my book.

besides, he was already in the car, it's not like he was defending himself.

he was fair game, he brought it on and got his jaw broke. What was he supposed to do keep letting him get up?

They were waiting for him outside so in my eyes he deserved a good kicking

Agreed. Unfortunately, the countries full of scumbag @#%&!s like this. Act tough when they’ve got number on their side, but put them on their arse and they’ll go running to the police. Pathetic.

Fair £#%&!s to him. The three @#%&!s took their chances when they waited on him to come out. You do that you deserve whatever comes your way

Dont think booting someone in the head when you've obviously sparked them out is particularly noble tbh. I'm with Jack on this one. If you've decked him, leave it. If he gets back up and wants some more, deck him again but dont boot a bloke in the head when he's out ffs.

yeah, if he's out cold, but if you've decked him and he's scrambling about like an angry cockroach you should be well within your rights to balung him again.

there were three of them, looking for trouble, you know?

Again, how do you know this? This is etuhu's side of the story. Probably attacked the white man for no reason.
