Barnsley Tonight

Post by mickey1975 »

After watching my good friend Dean Croft make an impressive winning debut on the Carl Greaves show tonight, during the excellent Damo Jones's(10-0) fight, which he was winning easily, a full scale riot broke out between Leeds fans(Damo's) and Barnsley fans(virtually the rest of the reason. Claret everywhere. Fight abandoned and changed to a NC.

I've just got back from Barnsley police station. As I was filming the show, South Yorkshire police have taken my footage of the riot off me.

Did you film Crofty's fight? First one on? No world beater, but so fit and game. I was as pleased for him as I have been for almost any of my friends who have won because I know how hard he works. As for Damo... It's a nightmare because he is a very good kid, Domestic level at least.

Feel sorry for the boxers and Carl Greaves. Carl is a great man works really hard to put small shows on. The boxers train so hard. Football hooligans we don't want you at our shows stick to the terrace. Horrible twats.

Did you keep a copy? If not, were I in your shoes, I'd set about doing something about that ASAP. That footage potentially has a significant commercial value to you (or the rights owner, Carl?) right now. Turn a negative into a positive.

Im from York. Nothing to do with our lot. And I have been with thousands of Henry Wharton fans at far bigger fights, a lot harder men than them knobheads last night, and he has lost and never seen any of them cause trouble. They weren't boxing fans, they were pissed up football idiots. Felt sorry for Damo, a genuinely good prospect.

I've found this that someone has filmed on their phone.

My footage was better but the cops wouldn't let me keep a copy as they say it's potential criminal evidence.

This is why I rarely attend bouts, too many eejits in attendance, shame for Carl and all the people who worked so hard to put the card together.
