Rumours of Saints player being arrested after trouble?

[saintscottofthenortham]

Oh FFS!!!!! This has got to be some sort of wind up? WTF!??? If this is true, then he is a disgrace.

[doddisalegend]

never mind him, we got a witch-hunt going down and our striker is the witch.

 

This will never be confirmed in a court of law as football clubs ALWAYS do deals out of court and very speedily.

 

Money will change hands no matter what the club decide to do internally. Or maybe Cortese doesn't work like that, maybe he'll say tough, you are on your own. Fear not the club's lawyers are already on the case. I may or may not be ITK

 

Marlon King, Nthan dyer, BWP and Lee huges all went to court didn't they?

[saintscottofthenortham]

Didn't ring him due to the time but he just confirmed it. Apparently hit matey 3 times though.......

 

Oh dear. He's gonna have to make sure he don't drop the soap.

[Colinjb]

This thread saddens me.

Yeah right. If you believe that then you are living in the past - I think you'll find that the days of 'brown paper bags' are history. Gone is the 'wide boy' attitude of the 70's 'fix it crews' like the Sweeney and Minder.

 

Quite simply, if there is a case to answer in a court of law - it is very probable that it will be heard in a court of law.

[Gemmel]

This thread saddens me.

 

Actually surprised it's been allowed to run. There is some stuff on here that leaves the site or owners exposed.

[Whitey Grandad]

Im sure the media would be quick to pick this story up. even from this site. I do not have a clue if it is true or not

for your sake Kaiser you better hope what you have said is true other wise a member of the old bill will be serving you a writ for libel?

 

That would be a civil case and I doubt that the police would be involved.

[Big John]

Marlon King, Nthan dyer, BWP and Lee huges all went to court didn't they?

 

Did the club not try to approach the girl involved? I'm not saying that they did, I am merely asking. If not then I would agree that that disproves my point, apologies.

[Jonnyboy]

I remember one with DMG smashing a kebab in someones face

 

havent heard it called that before

[Psycrow]

Can I ask if the various confirmations above are "Yeah, I was there and I heard it was Barnard" or are they "I saw it happen, it was definitely Barnard"

 

Because the first could be the result of a rumour spreading in a pub. Big Dave Watson says above that his mate was told it was Barnard by a cop, who for instance could have been wrong or taking the **** or whatever... and it definitely would have spread around the pub from there.

 

I'm not accusing anybody of telling porky pies, I'm just saying this could just be a rumour that got out of hand, and all the confirmations could have come from that.

[Big John]

and to clarify myself, RL never attended a police station last year and no-one got a kebab thrown at them by a saints player and david Speedie never had a scrap in a channel island hotel and no girl ever got assaulted many years ago ona pre-season trip to Denmark (or whatever country it didn't happen in).

 

Yep, I am definitley living in the past if I thought that those instances ever took place.

[Saint Fan CaM]

No media interest whatsoever? I'll wait on official news before making a judgement.

Landy, where are you when we need you?

[Saints foreva]

What a ****ing idiot if true.

 

I wonder what actions the club will take?

[Saint_clark]

I think some people are overreacting somewhat, even if it was him.

I'm sure there are plenty of honest, decent people in this world who have ended up getting violent when being wound up on a night out getting p*ssed.

[for_heaven's_Saint]

Apparently, allegedly, supposedly, Paul Wotton put a moggy in a recycling bin.

..... whilst dressed im woman's clothing.

[Block 5]

I wonder why Barnard kicked off.

Perhaps someone called him ginger?

[Seaside Saint 2]

The longer this goes on without media interest, the more suspicious I am. He'd be up in the magistrates this morning, so its very odd there's not even a whiff of "footballer up on assault charges" anywhere on the net....

[paris]

;(( And there's me thinking great we're now going in the right direction....i hopr this is not true but doesn't seem that way..(

[bowers-sfc]

Just read the story in the daily echo.

[Saint in Paradise]

Nothing so far in the internet version of the Echo.

[100%Red&White]

Sorry to say, but i've just had it confirmed. The bloke he bottled is a pro boxer apparently.

 

****ing joke this is, typical saints.

 

If that bit's true then you have to admire the boxer's restraint as he'd probably have made mincemeat of Barnard and f**ked up his pro licence.

[brett24]

Just had it confirmed, this post is total rubbish. I was with Barney yesterday playing PS3. Lock this fred.

[Dibden Purlieu Saint]

I've been to the Whitehouse once, been in a fight once. It does bad things to you that place, full of pikey scum who try to start fights at any slight altercation. Seems like Barnard has had the same experience.

 

Always thought they should lace the drinks in there with Aids. Would remove a lot of unwanted DNA from the gene pool.

With your 100% fight rate there, are you one of the pikey scum?

[Saint-scooby]

I think we should all wait and see the media reporting and clubs statement first.

[Secret Site Agent]

My last post on the matter. There was an altercation as the guy who got hit with the bottle (resulting in lots of claret) slipped going down the stairs (i've never been there, so don't know what the layout is like) and was trying to apologize when the saints player just flipped. My friend was a couple of steps behind. He only realised it was a saints player when he was being interviewed by the police and the copper told him who it was, obviously after it all kicked off.

When the full facts come out, I cant see this guy playing for Saints again, which will be a big loss to the team, but will be what he deserves from what I know.

 

Well the only good thing now is that if a copper told him, identification evidence will now be argued by the defence as inadmissable due to the fact that WAS it Lee, or as the police revealing it was/might be him colour peoples memories as to who was actually involved. PACE does make a big statement about identification evidence.

 

If it did happen though, the press IS awfully silent

Was it Barney the Bear you were playing with ?

Errrr look or read again - it's not the instances that I am doubting. It's your assumptions on how they will be (or by you logic, will not be) dealt with by the powers that be.

[fish fingers]

Barney the dinosaur.

[dubai_phil]

Echo

About 20 men were involved in fighting

 

Sounds a little different from a random swing on a flight of stairs.

 

Barnard treated in hospital.

 

Let's put the pitchforks back in the shed shall we until some actual facts emerge

[Bartosz Bialkowski]

He should never have been in that pikey scumhole anyway, I seriously cannot believe he has been that stupid. Bottling somebody is par for the course there so what did he expect.

 

He's been our best player all season, and now NA will drop him pending the trial.

 

Which means we're ****ed.

[dune]

Lock him up and throw away the key if he's bottled someone. Anyone who'd do this is scum.

[Hatch]

It goes....

 

Lee Barnard, Barnard

 

He's short and he's f*cking hard

 

He glassed someone in the face

 

And now we only have one out of form striker

 

the 3rd and 4th lines don't rhyme. 0/10

[dubai_phil]

Yeah right. So according to the Echo 20 men are involved. How do you KNOW that 19 did not attack him with bottles and he defended himself.

 

To assume makes an ass of many many people.

 

It doesn't SOUND good but then seeing as there are many people out there spreading other types of nasty rumours about the club who have an agenda. Well done for signing up to them so quickly

[Weston Saint]

Posters must be careful not to undertake an internet witch hunt. Let us not forget "innocent until proved guilty" applies in the UK.

 

If you did not see the incident you cannot know the sequence of events or what really happened. If you did see it, you should be talking to the police, not reliving the evidence on here.

 

Let the police conduct their enquiries and if there is a case to answer let the courts hear the evidence and pass judgement.

[saint_stevo]

Surprise surprise.

Turns out the bloke that was bottled was a friend of a friend. I am pretty certain that nobody was innocent, but, anybody who (sober or drunk) thinks its ok to pick up a bottle to use as a weapon is a total ***t.

 

A close mate of mine has permanent facial scars from somebody behaving just like Barnard.

 

That being said, people do makes mistakes, how he reacts will say a lot about his character.

Your right. It was like a scene from 300. Barney took on all comers. Hero.

[trousers]

Good to see the Saintsweb Forum breaking the news 12 hours before the meeja....

[chocco boxo]

He probably hit the bar too early!

[saint_stevo]

I heard it was Cortese that burned down Chiquito's

Did he behave like that or was it alledged that he behaved like that? Or, are you pre-judging him?

[Bartosz Bialkowski]

Barnard picked up a bottle and smashed it on somebodys head. So similar behaviour yes.

[Bartosz Bialkowski]

Now that isnt true, everybody knows it was Rupert Lowe aided by Marc Jackson.

[hypochondriac]

This. Is. Southampton!!!
