The cheeky bastard probably deserved it. I grew in shitkicker England I know we all provoked and deserved every slap we received.

That's a beating of a kid with a baton, not a "swift kick up the arse". That's well over the line by anybody's standard.

Could be, the problem is we can’t evaluate the context. The conclusion we jump to is demon Bobby against poor innocent teenager. No wonder he took his life, it was over anyway.

Granted, the punishment likely didn’t warrant a kosh around the head but some of these chavs know they are untouchable and play on that.

If you don’t want to get hurt, don’t start kicking off in Burnley at a football match.

I’m all for the water cannons. A lot more fun to watch.
