How very Daily Mail of you, you should be proud.
Where did i decide he shouldnt get compo? I said if he did lets see what he does with it.
I had a view on the case as did you. You thought as he was a City fan that he was obviously in the right, which is not always the case, and the law has agreed with me.
I am proud that my initial thoughts on this case were proved to be correct, you were wrong.
I didn't prejudge and never said they were guilty and therefore was not wrong. I pulled you up saying that he deserved compo if he won the case. Unlike you who said he shouldn't as he didn't work and that he should give it to charity as he gets too much already.
You are proud that you judge a book by its cover. I think that is disgusting. You sound like a complete and utter ..........

Two Manchester United stewards accused of breaking a Manchester City fan's legs by pushing him down a stairwell have been cleared of any wrongdoing.
A jury took around an hour to decide that Paul Stringer and Mark Roberts were not guilty of assaulting Blues supporter Peter Sweeney.
Mr Sweeney was being escorted out of Old Trafford stadium during the derby match in September 2009 when he claimed he was shoved down the steps by the two men.
Mr Sweeney, 47, a methadone addict from Macclesfield fractured his left heel and right shin.
Mr Roberts and Mr Stringer denied touching the complainant at all and said he slipped and fell down the eight steps in the ground's east wing.
A jury at Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court today returned not guilty verdicts for each defendant.

You did pre judge though - just not the City fan.
Judged a book by its cover - well yes I saw a Methodone taking, spliff smoking, beer drink 7 stone guy covered in tatoos with no job and thought maybe, just maybe he is after some compensation out of this. And the Law agrees
I also said, if you read back, that I wouldnt mind a butchers at the CCTV as thats where the case wold surely be won and lost. And the CCTV showed him up to be on the make
I dont really care what you think as you have shown what type of person you are in this thread and its plain to see. Im am not bothered you think im a complete and utter row of full stops, I rather you thought that as Id rather not someone like you think any different.

There was CCTV footage so I can only assume it clearly showed him falling rather than being pushed, or else was inconclusive and therefore introduced enough doubt to prevent a guilty verdict.
I'm certain the City fan's personal situation and issues didn't help his cause one little bit.

Not much going our way at the moment.
Don't think much of Mr Sweeney if he knew he wasn't pushed and purued this action

What sort of person I am? You mean the type of person that doesn't judge a book by its cover. that would prefer to wait until a verdict is given before slagging off a blue. The type of person that believe that if someone has had his legs broken, that he should be entitled to receive compensation?

Yeah because juries never get a verdict wrong.
Which is why I regularly play golf with OJ Simpson.
