Duck Egg Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Happened just down the road from me. I've seen several mentions of kids from Deane and elsewhere coming into the town for some reason. Going out with a knife on you is the kind of thing that happens in London or Farnworth, not Howfen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon you may well be but “serves him reet” is a bit shitty. I’m sure he’s not the only person paying scant regard to the current rules. Should they all be stabbed?

Black Sheep Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I agree 'serves him reet' is a terrible thing to say without knowing the exact circumstances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErnestTurnip Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Two lads getting robbed by a group of 6 and one getting stabbed by a 14 yr old Somali is the word on the ground apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judge Fudge Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 The lad who got stabbed used to play in the same team as one of my lads. Always came across as a decent kid with a nice family behind him. Last I heard, his life was still in the balance. To say it served him right is an absolute fucking cunt of a statement to make.

Black Sheep Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Apparently the lad in question was getting attacked by 6 lads, and tried legging it but got caught and then stabbed - its one thing scrapping with fists (btw 6 onto 1 is cowardly), but to purposely stab someone FFS, no one deserves that.

Ghana White Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I'm going to come across as ancient but as a teenager we'd get mugged in manchester by kids with knives, we knew most other kids in westhoughton, you'd get the odd scrap, I remember some army cadets twats beating my mate up but we knew who they were and the police caught up with em. The idea you're getting scroats with knives doing kids over in westhoughton is nuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erm woosh! Latest reports suggesting it was 2 lads approached by a larger group who tried to rob them and did the stabbing when they resisted. That could happen to any of us. Here's hoping he makes a full recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
