Poor thing. What about us villa fans, penned in at the sty car park having bricks and bottles thrown at us couple of years back. Don't remember the Blues board condeming their fans for it.
-
This sort of thing is absolutely deplorable.
...Unless its involving this cack bearded phallus wrangler.
-
He said it was the most frightening thing he'd seen..
...can't have ever been invited to see the decor at Sullivans chav mansion then?
-
...or Miss Piggy's growler.
-
Propably an bcity supporter trying to use a rock, as a key?
-
There's no need for this sort of nonsense, this is not something we should be laughing about.
-
I can't condone this sort of behaviour....so why am I smiling?
-
i like this quote from the article
'could have killed my driver Jerry had it penetrated.'
-
i like this quote from the article
'could have killed my driver Jerry had it penetrated.'
It's the Ann Summers in him, his vocabulary is limited to sexual innuendo.
-
"Suddenly I was surrounded by a load of c***s."
So it was just like any other working day then, cackbeard?
-
And if it was Randy's car being attacked somewhere would that be funny?
-
If only he had David Beckham acting as his special ambassador. What, with all the goodwill generated by Golden Balls there would be rose petals thrown at the car, not beer bottles.
Regards to Jerry though.
-
"I hope and pray the incident is reported to the local constabulary and these two thugs are caught."
So why isn't he reporting it to the local constabulary rather then bleating to the press about it. And I honestly can't believe that other Villa fans were waving and smiling at him.
-
i don't like David Gold. I think he's a bit of a dickhead, truth be told.
I think people who throw bottles at cars are fucking morons, though, and there are too many morons on the streets these days.
-
Knowing his penchant for exaggeration -and the fact that he's not looking to press charges- is it beyond the realms of possibility that he might be talking out of his arse again on this one?
The boy who cried wolf, and all that.
Or the dildo salesman who looks like a wolf, whatever.
-
I'm not condoning the bottle throwing at all. TBH I actually even wonder whether any attack took place because as I pointed out, why wasn't he reporting it to the police rather then the newspapers. Probably the only thing thrown at him was wanker signs and he has then blown it out of all proportion like he did with the Pigs in Mud comment.
-
Why was he slumming it in a Rolls Royce anyway? Where was his poxy helicopter?
And do you think he calls his helicopter Airwolf?
-
It did take place, I was waving and smiling at him outside the Eddies.
-
Were you waving a bottle?
-
Were you waving with one finger or two? Or just waving with a weird wrist action?
-
stop it Mazrim, my ribs are aching! :)
-
To be honest, I hate it when dickheads who support my club do this kind of thing. I always like the think that because they made the roght choice in who to support, they might be sensible enough to just be quietly satisfied with the result. But I guess I'm a bit too naive in that respect.
It does make me wonder why it was parked there and not outside the ground. Were they waiting at the lights or something?
-
He didn't actually say they were Villa fans did he? My bet it was Sendo :)
-
Propably an bcity supporter trying to use a rock, as a key?
I've been giggling at this for a good ten minutes now.
Oh the imagery.
-
Hope it is West Ham fan :)
-
Whilst not condoning such behaviour if it did occur - why has he gone to the media but not
reported it to the local constabulary ?
Completely unrelated - this is the same guy who takes it upon himself to offer to sign autographs
in players' carpark after the match yesterday .........at one stage he was standing next to my motm
Super Marc Albrighton ............fair to say he didn't get many takers even the Hammers fans weren't
bothered
-
Whilst it was a bloody stupid and childish thing to do, that's about as much sympathy as i can muster. I just wonder if he'd have brought it up had West Ham won?
-
Key quote
"I hope and pray the incident is reported to the local constabulary and these two thugs are caught."
Does this mean that he's not reporting then incident to the police himself ?
If he was there and saw what happened they surely its his civic duty to report the incident to the police rather than just spout off to the press
EDIT - Just seen that Mozza said almost exactly the same thing
-
I didn't think Gold was coming back to VP ever again. I'm sure he said so a few years ago after we'd thrashed the shower of shit that he used to own. I think someone had upset him on the day.
And if he hopes the incident is reported then he should pick up the phone and do it himself. It's his right and his duty.

On a related note I was in there before the game, Does anyone on here drink in there? Fuck me it was full of fanny behind the bar, All barmaids fit as fuck made me forget about it being £3 for a pint of carling

I think you may have answered your own question there Phil!! You can guarantee selling beer at any price if you put hot women behind the bar.
-

He probably thought it was waving because most city fans only have 2 fingers.

Do you think its possible he mistook waving and smiling for waving him off and laughing?

I was in there yesterday pre match as usual. There is some top crumpet behind that bar that's for sure. Maybe Mr Tumnus had heard about it and was on a recruitment drive?

Yep in there as well, there not super models by any stretch of the imagination however it does help that they have a no haggard old witch employment policy.

I've never been in there before but I might just have to make it a permanent fixture on the itinerary!
When we were at Wembley for the FA Cup semi there was a really fit wench who worked on the food stand in block L. We were getting pretty flirty at one point (I can't have been drunk cos the beer was so shit) but there were about fifty people waiting to be served behind me so our relationship lasted about two minutes unfortunately. And I've already made a joke about a semi, in my mind, so don't bother.
-
Gold was going to report it to the Police. He asked where the nick was and they said right next to The Adventurers. At that point, he thought it may be wise to abort that idea otherwise he may as well have gone straight to Taroni's.
-
What made me smile was wording in the article ' penetrated' - how did the guy make his fortune ?
-
Mr Gold, if this incident did happen then you have to report it yourself to the police. Reporting it to a newspaper doesn't count and the police won't look at it until you report it.
Part of me wonders if this really did happen and it is not something he is stirring up to try and make us look bad. If he reports it I'm sure there will be lots of witnesses who were outside the pub, waving and :) that will co-oberate his version of events, or maybe they missed it as they couldn't see due to the sea of hands waving.

We were meant to pop in before the game, but was running a bit late. Went in there the final game of last season and yes, the talent behind the bar all looked about 19 but very fit.
Which was nice
-
As a matter of interest, is his a blue roller, as one of those overtook me on the M6...Bloody lovely car mind.
-
Gold past us on the M40 in his roller (Number plate D GOLD) His driver sat in the ouside lane and wouldn't let anyone pass. Unfortunately we didn't see him on the way home, but I'm not complaining after a day like yesterday.
-
Whatever our feelings towards gold and Sullivan- any act or threat of violence towards them is totally deplorable, whoever did this cannot call themselves a villa fan!
-
No excuse for this kind of behaviour but not a day goes by without either him, the Porn Dwarf or Brady bleating to the press about something or other.
-
Whatever our feelings towards gold and Sullivan- any act or threat of violence towards them is totally deplorable, whoever did this cannot call themselves a villa fan!
Villa fans are all different in personalities.Some are able to rise above Golds comments,some aren't-In much the same way that some booed Milner yesterday & some didn't.
Maybe it wasn't the right thing to do (although I find it funny & nobody got hurt) but you can't claim that the people who did this are any more or any less Villa fans than you are.
-
then im sure if some nose spills paint on your car, you will laugh about it as no-one got hurt................

I disagree, just because nobody got hurt does not mean that another time they might not do something and someone does get hurt.
They may do something that results in Villas reputation being tarnished and in my book that makes them less of a fan than the responsible majority.
Im old enough to remember the 70s and 80s and while I will find plenty wrong with the game now, the big improvement is that Im not walking around looking over my shoulder to keep away from trouble.
For me, the idiot who tried to throw a coin at Redknapp is less of a fan, the guy I saw who was chasing after a danish lad and kicking him in Odense two years back is less of a fan, and if it is right with this story they are lesser fans too.

Thats fine-I personaly do not give a monkeys if the likes of Gold or Redknapp do get hurt-They are in a privilged position & should learn to keep their big mouths shut.
Some Villa fans go to university,some go to work,others are law breakers-They are still all equal as Villa fans.
Like you,I also remember the 70's & 80's when football was predominately a working class sport.That was the culture I grew up in & whilst I agree that football is better now,I can still relate to certain feelings & emotions that are frowned upon by many.

Surely there's no "maybe" about that?
When is it the right thing to do to throw a bottle at someone's car?

It's okay for Randy to have a brick through his window next time he's in Manchester then?

Thats the second time you've used this irrelevent comparison.
You know as well as I do that Randy will never antagonise football fans like that piece of shit has.

Boom Boom!

It's very relevant; Manchester City supporters may beg to differ. I will say what is irrelevant though - trying to justify this incident on the grounds that David Sullivan somehow deserved it.

Its nothing to do with Sullivan
David Gold entered the high profile football scene by his choice-He has antagonised Villa fans on more than one occasion with his comments.
If he wants to drive around VP in his RR after these comments then he is asking for trouble.
This is a fact of life & is why people hire minders & various other forms of security.

The last time something was reported as being thrown at a car at VP it resulted in the death of someone.
It's only fortunate that the car was fitted with toughened glass that the driver (an innocent man just doing his job) was not injured. The perpetrator wasn't to know this.
Mindless acts of violence or vandalism aren't a laughing matter.

Sorry, I should have said Gold but the point still stands. Nothing he has said could justify throwing a brick at his car.

You have to accept that not everyone thinks like you-or is blessed with the intelligence that you have.
I am not trying to justify this incident (although I wouldn't be bothered if Golds face had been written off) My point is that this is life in the UK in 2010 & is why people hire security-Especialy within football circles.
If someone like Gold makes statements,he should be mindful of the impact that these statements have on people & should act with responsibility.Football is after all still a sport that entices pasion & emotions in certain quaters.
I am not saying that throwing a brick through his window is the answer but I do think Gold should have been more responsible
-
He antagonised me by charging £45-48 to enter that shithole

I don't think anyone should have to go through life watching what they say, especially about football, in case some mindless prick decides he has been offended and wants to even the score.
Gold may be a classless sleaze but he's basically harmless. Which is more than can be said for the bottle-chucking imbecile who hasn't evolved far enough to be able to exercise any sort of self-restraint.

Thats great & I salute you for being above the "bottle chucking imbercile"
However-In this age of equality,"bottle chucking imberciles" should be afforded the same rights as everyone else.The fact remains that he is no less of a supporter than you,me,the disabled bloke up the road or the muslim from round the corner.
-
What a plonker.

Well, except for the fact that he is less of a supporter than you, me, the disabled bloke up the road and the Muslim from round the corner because he thinks it's acceptable to chuck bottles at the cars of people he doesn't like. Or are you saying he should have the right to do that?

I agree. They should be arrested and (preferably) be locked up as soon as possible.

He was away from the ground-How he behaves is up to him.He is still just as much a supporter as anyone else.In fact I'll go further-compared to a lot on here,he is more of a supporter because he actualy goes down & watchches the team.

If only he could pair that attendance at the ground and support for the team with a bit of "not throwing bottles at cars", I can't help thinking that maybe then he'd be a good a supporter as the many thousands who were there yesterday and managed not to try to assault anybody.

Do you not accept,or understand that out of the many thousands who were there yesterday that a few will break the law?
If you were to hold a pop concert in which many thousands attended,do you think it would be drug free?
You go on about the tabloid press slating Villa yet you lot on here seem to thrive on the slightest fracture of the law that can be attributed to Villa fans

Yes, I do understand it, no i wouldn't expect it to be drug free, and no, I am not thriving on anything, I'm just suggesting that it is highly, highly twattish to throw a bottle at a car.
I fully understand it happens. Lots of thing happen which aren't right or acceptable, though, and this is one of them.
-
Nah, chucking a bottle is twattish in the extreme. Now tomatoes, on the other hand would be perfectly acceptable. Providing they're not still in the tin of course
-

Just caught up on this thread from last night, if Nechells isnt simply being controversial to get a rise out of people then I would be genuinly concerned with an attitude that condones violence.
Perhaps he feels the majority of us are coming across with some self righteous attitude and views this as those who are part of what we call `the gentrification of football`.
I reckon a discussion with Nechells about the social exclusion from football of the working class fan in the last 20 years would probably find us agreeing on a lot.
Tribalsim and aggression have always been bound up with supporting a football team. I actualy believe there is nothing wrong with aggression at football, as long as it doesnt spill over into violence. I believe tribalism is acceptable at football if it doent spill over into ethnic or racial hatred.
I may be making an assumption here, but I reckon Nechells is pissed off because many of the working class have been priced out and excluded from football.
If that is the case then I am 100% with him on that point, one of my biggest gripes about the game now is how the make up of the people who go has been forcibly changed. I am lucky enough to be able to afford to go, I would hate to think how I would feel if I had been priced out.
However, I think he is making the same mistake as much of the stuck up media does and the Thatcher government did. There doent have to be any correlation between working class people going to football and any levels of violence. For all we know the bottle throwers could be privately educated middle class professionals living just round the corner from Doug in the poshest part of Sutton.

I thought we'd got past criticising the way people choose to support the club.
-
Percy, I'm not sure you can avoid criticising someone who is claimed to be supporting the club by throwing bottles at people. It's certainly not the sort of supporter that the vast majority of people would want to be associated with the club, as it gives the club, and therefore the supporters, a bad name. I'd also say that it isn't supporting, rather hindering the club.
-
I honestly can't believe that anyone thinks that Gold deserves more than a few choice words on an internet message board and 'the wankers' at a game. To try to justify a bottle through a window and the injury that may have caused is mental.
And being a bottle-throwing twat has got nothing to do with being a Villa fan.
-
Throwing a bottle at a car window is in no way supporting our club- catch them and ban them from villa park - we don't need idiots like that ruining our clubs name and putting people in fear .

He was away from the ground-How he behaves is up to him.He is still just as much a supporter as anyone else.In fact I'll go further-compared to a lot on here,he is more of a supporter because he actualy goes down & watchches the team.
If only he could pair that attendance at the ground and support for the team with a bit of "not throwing bottles at cars", I can't help thinking that maybe then he'd be a good a supporter as the many thousands who were there yesterday and managed not to try to assault anybody.
Do you not accept,or understand that out of the many thousands who were there yesterday that a few will break the law?
If you were to hold a pop concert in which many thousands attended,do you think it would be drug free?
You go on about the tabloid press slating Villa yet you lot on here seem to thrive on the slightest fracture of the law that can be attributed to Villa fans
Yes, I do understand it, no i wouldn't expect it to be drug free, and no, I am not thriving on anything, I'm just suggesting that it is highly, highly twattish to throw a bottle at a car.
I fully understand it happens. Lots of thing happen which aren't right or acceptable, though, and this is one of them.
I thought we'd got past criticising the way people choose to support the club.
Go on, then, tell me how throwing a bottle at David Gold's car is "supporting the club"?
-
I honestly can't believe that anyone thinks that Gold deserves more than a few choice words on an internet message board and 'the wankers' at a game. To try to justify a bottle through a window and the injury that may have caused is mental.
And being a bottle-throwing twat has got nothing to do with being a Villa fan.
I can't recall reading one single post where anyone tries to justify it.

Try Percy's just above, which seems to suggest it is wrong to criticise the way people "support the team", which seems to suggest he thinks it is ok (or certainly not something we should criticise)

Are you fucking kidding me?
David Gold entered the high profile football scene by his choice-He has antagonised Villa fans on more than one occasion with his comments.
If he wants to drive around VP in his RR after these comments then he is asking for trouble.
If someone like Gold makes statements,he should be mindful of the impact that these statements have on people & should act with responsibility.
That's off the last couple of pages. Haven't gone back to where this bullshit started falling from your mouth.
Maybe you're right though. Maybe he IS a good fan and it's just his way of spurring the team on.
I can imagine that K-Mac would very much like to run CCTV footage of this to get the lads up for the Vienna match.

Wow, apparently this was now a "brush with death" according to The Sun!!
DAVID GOLD last night spoke of his terrifying brush with death at the hands of two 'Villa monsters'.

It was a tongue-in-cheek remark, ridiculing the oft-heard assertion that somebody who hasn't missed a game for ten years is not a 'better fan' than someone who never goes, but just sits at home in front of a computer criticising almost everything about the club they 'support'.
-
This has really apalled me to be honest.
I sat with David Gold for a chat after the game and have nothing but positive things to say about the way he was.
He had time for everyone, unlike his counterpart Mr Sullivan.
I can also add Karen Brady was really nice too, in both ways.
-

Thats just a revenue stream too far.

Those quotes do not try to justify the kids actions though do they?
I thought you would of learned after your last clueless exchanges with me that I never spout bullshit.
-
As a newby..I will tread carefully.
Throwing bottles is out of order.
But does it warrant the press D.G has whipped up against our club.
Did VILLA go running to the press with all the scums fans mister meaners over the years ???
Being terrified for your life ... Mr Gold .. try being a visiting supporter @ yr old stomping ground !!!
-
Their mister meaners?
-
Whilst not condoning what happened, Think Gold could have used more common sense. Not exactly bright rolling up in your roller as the ex chairman of our hated rivals with lots of pissed up Villa fans who had been on it all day outside the pub, was it? It is a fact of life that if I turned up in a Villa top outside the Garrison Tavern on a Blues home match day I would be likely to get a smack - I'm a nobody but would take sensible precautions not to do it. You would think Gold would have know better in his position.
-

I don't believe I've ever attempted to tie your so-called mind up in knots before. Not that I'd remember as it's arguing with a complete moron is hardly something worth keeping track of.
And as for you never spouting bullshit, well, this thread would totally and utterly disprove that. Not that you'll see it though, with your head up your arse.
-
We can debate how this incident is an indicment of Villa fans and wider society but bollocks to that.
David Gold and admittedly more so his associate spouted endless drivel and provocative opinions before the derby matches from the word go, to hype up interest and no doubt get a few more of the undead off their arses. As businessmen they indentified that their poxy clubs only driving force was trying to beat the Villa and they did what they could to whip up the rabble.
Well the upshot of that in todays society, and given the passions that run high with football,is that some dickhead somewhere will take an opportunity to do something stupid and this will happen.
The point that the perpetrators were probably the same target audience for his filty daily rag, that prints lurid details of rape cases amongst other things poses some interesting questions for muliti-miliionaire David Gold to ask himself.
Anyway, if Saturdays performance is much to go by, his own fans wont be long behind in thowing shit his way.

What LeeB has said in regard to Gollivan's reasons for his previous tirades against the Villa is spot on. Birmingham City's raison d'źtre is to some way, any way, beat the Villa. There's even a KRO thread in which a knuckledragger said he'd gladly trade away all his wishes for Blues glory in exchange for us having Bob Bradley as a manager. This is the mentality we're dealing with. Gollivan simply milked that particularly stupid cow for all it was worth.
Have they said a great deal about Villa since the move to London? I suspect it's all anti-Spurs hype now.
To have a laugh at the clowns on an internet msg board is, indeed, great fun. To wind them up at the game on the back of a 3-0 defeat is great fun. To hear of some idiot(s) who feels it's ok throw a missile at a vehicle because it happens to be owned by a chairman of an opposition club is so far removed from who we should be as, not only Villa fans, but human beings.
When you see some Palestinian or Iraqi kid on TV launching a bottle or brick at military forces, you shake your head but can understand the where anger and frustration comes from and the events that brought about such actions. To have a someone do this in the middle of Birmingham (future City of Culture) because he doesn't like who the bloke used to work for is simply mind-blowingly stupid.
-
Perhaps his choice of vehicle and Personalised number plates could have been better?Not exactly trying to mingle, was he?
-
Have to say I'm surprised at the number of people on here who think this funny. As much as I agree Gold is a bit of a cock I'm not sure this sort of thing should be considered humorous at all. No doubt had it been a couple of West Ham fans who did this sort of thing we'd all be denounced as mindless hooligans who should be banned from football, and ol' saggy chops would be mouthing off in the sun again about how we shouldn't be allowed to play against Villa again.
-
It's nothing short of disgraceful. End of. It's made us look very small time when just to wave and maybe show a little initiative in having banter with Gold would have been the way to go. Launching bottles at someones car, anyones car is inexcusable.
-
I agree it makes us look small time, hopefully sendo realises the majority of us deplore what happened.
-
Nobody can justify throwing a bottle at his car although the guy is such a complete tosser it's hard for me to feel any sympathy. I would have drawn the line at throwing my own shit at him though.
-
Perhaps his choice of vehicle and Personalised number plates could have been better?Not exactly trying to mingle, was he?
Yeah, how dare he, ey? He's a grade A clown, but NOTHING justifies what happened, no matter how hard you try to find something.
-
There are two things at play here. Firstly, the issue of whether it is ever acceptable to thow a bottle at someone's car. Emphatic answer - No.
Then there is the issue of whether he, being ex Blues chairman and chief mischief maker over the years, was being a bit dumb driving past a Villa pub in a clearly identifiable car (there are lots of ways to get from VP to the M6). Answer - Yes. Jut as someone else pointed out, I wouldn't dream of going into the Garrison in a Villa shirt after a blues game because I know what I'd get. Doesnt make it right.
The two can be debated separately. Although, I dont see much for debate on the first point.
-
Sorry sendo, it wasnt the two Villa monsters throwing bottles at his motor I found funny, it was Mazrim's description of him as a ' Cack bearded phallus wrangler'. Just wanted to clear that up. Still makes me titter now
-
Frankly when you come out the official car park at VP and your heading for the M6 south, the only obvious route is to come up Aston Hall Road. Thats the way any villa fan would go, thats the way any away fan would go, and its the way your Satnav, Garmin or whatever would send you.
Lets just look at alternatives, turn the other way and then be stuck by Witton island ? If an attack had been made on his car then, you would have all been saying how he should have took the most direct route away instead of faffing about.
Then of course theres the question of his car and appearing conspicuous. Theres been plenty of criticisms of Doug over the years, but I never heard anybody saying he was a fool to go round in a roller with an AV1 registration because it could be interpreted as being provocative and inviting trouble.
But in any case, is anyone seriously suggesting anybody should have to pre-plan an alternative route away from Villa Park because they need to fear trouble ?
-
It's all a bit MIllwall this.
He should have waited another 30 minutes before leaving B6 though ..... it is a bit stupid leaving the ground in his Roller when the fans are.
He knows how much he is disliked by Villa fans, so, without vindicating what happened, he should have known better.
-
Really not arsed about his car getting a bottle thrown at it that's not to say i condone it because i don't. But i ask you this if Randy drove past the St Andrews Tavern and got stuck in traffic do you think the same would have happened because i know it would. It's life and unfortunately your gonna get this type of behaviour. I i did see his car parked in the players car park and it was a beauty of a machine and i'd say driving that to away football grounds on a matchday is quite frankly asking for trouble so Mr Gold get yourself a nice people carrier with blacked out windows and stop whinging like a girl you bearded freak.
-
He should have waited another 30 minutes ? He probably left after the main crowds had cleared. Someone earlier on in this thread said they were chatting to him in the lounge after the game. Assuming you know the exact location we are talking about he could have possibly come through a minute earlier and the lights were on green and none of this would have occured. In fact, if he had come through 30 minutes later the same morons would probabaly have still been at the pub, more tanked up and even more irresponsible.
But again, are we suggesting anybody should not only have to plan their route away from VP to avoid trouble but now work within certain time constraints ?
-
The problem on Saturday Aston Hall Rd was open to traffic in both directions after the game it was total gridlock normally the old bill shut it going towards Villa Park it took me 55 mins to get out of the small Official Villa car park that's why he got caught up in traffic because the babylon didn't bother to close the road. Everyone comes out of the main car park AV Leisure centre and use both lanes once they hit the railway bridge they encountered traffic coming towards them and they we're boxed in cars we're mounting pavements and all sorts it was a nightmare.
-

Yeah, how dare he, ey? He's a grade A clown, but NOTHING justifies what happened, no matter how hard you try to find something.
Not for one moment saying it does justify it, But in a crowd of thousands, many of whom have been drinking there will always be a couple of idiots who will be prone to do this sort of thing, particularly given the history. I Just feel his choice of vehicle, personalised number plates etc make him stand out more and therefore an easier target and Gold has shown amazing naivety considering his years in the game.
-
where was his 5k reward to find the cretins who pummelled villa fans in the sty car park a few years back?
-
Talking of getting caught at traffic lights by the KE, I noticed after the match that they allowed two way traffic down there and had the lights operational at the end of the game.
Why do they randomly do this? It creates absolute havoc for traffic departing the game. Make it one way and just have a copper standing at the traffic light and it is miles quicker.
And Gold wouldn't have got caught there and said moron wouldn't have been able to bottle his car ;-)
-
Are there any other eyewitness reports that this actually happened? Because I wouldn't believe a word this fucking self-publicising Lupine gobshite has ever uttered.
I mean, what kind of eejit gets a bottle thrown at their car and hopes somebody else reports it to the Police?
-
Whatever a man's choice of car, licence plate number, etc, he should be able to travel down a public road without having objects thrown at him.

Yeah, we were outside. He pulled up at the lights, nobody clocked him at first. Cue the 'waving and smiling' once everybody did.
His chauffeur then sped off and pulled up in to Power League to inspect the damage.

He reported it to The Sun newspaper, what more do you want?
You can also clearly see the car was bleeding from the photograph
(http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive/01106/dAVIDgOLD_1106044a.jpg)
People need to realise that needles of glass could have gone into his head and killed him ffs.
I've tried to find Gold's comments related to the five hours of violence at the West Ham v Millwall game inside at outside his stadium, including stabbings and people being pelted with bricks whilst prone on the ground. I haven't been able to find them but I'm sure they would be consistent and proportionate with his comments about these Villa monsters.

My entire family is Irish. I'm the first generation born in England for a long time.
I am descended from James Butler, the Duke of Ormond and cousin to Anne Boleyn though. So maybe a bit of English in there too. Royal, of course. *snooty face*

It's all a bit MIllwall this.
He should have waited another 30 minutes before leaving B6 though ..... it is a bit stupid leaving the ground in his Roller when the fans are.
Given our performance, he was probably eager to get going asap. I know I would be.
On a side note I do wish the two of them would stop putting West Ham shirts on every single time they address the media.

If that's the worst thing Gollivan do from here on in, consider yourself very lucky indeed!

If he'd been straight on the phone to the local Police rather than Fleet Street arranging for a photographer to meet him at his Mansion, i might have a tad bit more sympathy.
-
Bloody Mr Tumnus at it again.
Don't forget to mention they were Villa monsters, hey?
Was his window was hit by a dildo?
-
Just look at him in that ridiculous West Ham Sorbet shirt.
Prince Caspian loving freak.

There's something wrong about that photo with Gold leaning on his car.
It's just dawned on me, it doesn't feature his helicopter in the background so it must be photo shopped.

Not 'anybody' but certainly him.
RE. 30 minutes ... maybe 45 minutes then.
Like it or not, he is high profile and the ex. Small Heath Chairman.
-
If he has any business interest in Sport Newspapers, and can in any way be held responsible for printing details of rape trials, or the week-long build-up as a young girl gets ready to celebrate her birthday by getting her tits out in this scummy rag, for the titillation of its moronic readers, then I'm going to regard this incident as merely an inadequate bit of karma.
-
I wouldn't be surprised if he made it up (or at least exaggerated events) just to gain even more press attention, seeing how he is the biggest media whore in this country.

For a made up version of events, check out this gem posted on Keepriron.co.uk:
did anybody read about the 2 villa fans who smashed up golds bentley outside a villa pub on saturday as he waited for traffic lights a woman stopped to ask him for his autograph and photo and 2 guys crept round the other side and spray painted and smashed it up nice reward going as well. To all you moaners about a bore draw on saturday it was away game remember if we have good home form again any away points are bonuses remember that KRO

You know it, Percy.
-
I am struggling to see the damage to his car. Genuinely. What a massive, massive tool.
-
I think what happened is this: Word got around that Mr Gold, the kindest most benevolent fleshlightmonger in all of England had bestowed favour upon the handicapped.
So touched were the local patrons that there was a whip-round to buy him a couple of drinks for his journey home and also by some way, thank him for another three points one of his teams has given us with minimum effort. A couple of pints wouldnt do as they would spill so they would have to be bottles I guess. So when word was recieved that his Imperial Vagesty had pulled up, only the two most rum chaps in the pub were entrusted to escort the gifts outside. They carefully proceeded towards the Lupine smutlord when disaster struck. Some Birmingham City supporters had fouled the pavement and the escorting guard of honour slipped and accidently hurled the bottles towards the car containing Prince Cackbeard. Any curses heard were merely frustration at having failed in their mission to deliver the bottles unscathed and being covered in chav dung.
Fortunately, being such an unpalatable scrote whose popularity comes exactly between Piles and Scouting for Girls, he had already had his windows reinforced and this saved the day. Also, they werent armour piercing bottles as they might have been.
So after a good cry and being piped off by Miss Piggy, he calmed down a bit. Hopefully he'll soon realise he has the wrong end of the stick. In the meantime, if anybody ever sees him in mild peril can they ring the police for him, he cant really be arsed you see.
-
I don't like David Gold because of the way he conducted himself at Small Heath. That doesn't mean Villa fans should behave like Small Heath fans. If the windscreen had shattered the driver could easily have been blinded or careered into a lamppost.
If Blose did this to General Krulak we would be calling for them to have points deductions. It's hypocritical of us to pretend it's all a big laugh just because the bloke in question is a wanker.

Windscreens do not shatter anymore, they haven't for over 20 odd years. They are made of laminated glass. The most that could have happened to the windscreen would be a slight crack and even that is very doubtful from a lobed blunt object like a bottle.
I'm not in any way condoning the actions of a moron but I can't help feel that Gold is turning this into something akin to a B movie.
-
I doubt the people throwing the glass were aware that the windscreen wouldn't shatter. I don't want to keep going on about this but if it's all true then Gold, cock though he is, is perfectly entitled to be pissed off.
-
Its one excuse after another for these glass throwing morons isnt it. Now we have the windscreen wouldnt shatter.
Im sure these idiots did a full health and safety analysis before anything left their grubby hands yes ?
Lets completely put to one side who their target was and what anybody thinks of him. Lets completely put to one side Golds reaction and what he has said to about the incident.
What if the objects had missed his car and hit a by-stander ? Perhaps somebody with kids that they take down VP would like to justify their actions in any way and tell me how their views may then be slightly different if their own kids had been caught accidently?
How about if it had been one of our more elderly fans who still get themselves down VP being accidently caught ? My Mom kept watching the Villa every home game right up till she died at 85, the one game she stopped going to though was Small Heath at home due to us nearly getting caught up in some trouble one year.
-
I believe Mazrims version. It was an unfortunate accident and not funny. At all
-
Dickhead throws bottle at ******.
Why are the rest of us good citizens at all bothered?
I haven't read anyone excusing these pricks, so why all the Daily Mail "woebetide us" shit?
-
I think there should be a really expensive inquiry into this at the taxpayers expense.
You could call it "The Cackbeard commission".
Back and to the left. Back... and to the left.

Nobody's making any excuses for the glass throwing idiot who I hope gets caught and is punished accordingly.
But tell me something, is it any coincidence that it is always Gold who is on the end of stuff like this? Wasn't it a few seasons ago when he was back to the press telling them how he feared for his life or such like when some of our fans were shouting at him and before that informing the press that the General was a Corporal all so as to get his ugly mug in the papers. Gold craves publicity, any kind of publicity. He doesn't and can't do low profile hence the Rolls Royce with the Registration GOLD.

I wouldn't be surprised if he made it up (or at least exaggerated events) just to gain even more press attention, seeing how he is the biggest media whore in this country.
I thought this when I heard of the story.

Anyway, if his driver had been hurt (god forbid) I have Henri Paul lined up as a replacement.

The attack was wrong, the perpetrator needs to be punished.
Yet this fantasy of Gold instructing his Chauffeur to "go and hunt some Villa", possibly even asking him to "sneak up on a Villa pub (in his roller)" has it's amusing side.

The one on the left is without a doubt Brad Guzan.
He probably didn't throw the bottle, anyway, just dropped it.
-
I know it's shocking, these blokes should be identified and hauled before a magistrate and all that.
I'm normally a mild mannered fella, but I see a photo of that pig in a West Ham shirt, looking like butter wouldn't fucking melt, and I start turning into a different person - one that thinks he's an absolute twat who almost deserves what he gets.
May God forgive me.
And what's the story about him signing an autograph for a "young disabled Villa fan" just before the incident. Sorry, I don't believe a word Gold says.
And for a chairman of West Ham to tell Villa to get their fans in order just takes the fackin biscuit.
I know I'm wrong, but I just can't fight my instincts

Surely they'll get a suspended sentence? Or a fine? Whichever, surely its worth 5k to them? May as well get in their first before someopne else drops them in there.

That's what I thought. I'd get the wife to phone the police if it were me.
-
Well not the wife as that would be too obvious. Get friends or a distant relative to do it.

To be honest, if that were me I don't suppose she'd wait for me to tell her to make the call.

What a shocking story, unbelievable - why would anyone want David Gold's autograph?
Own up ;) Surely he posts on here?
-
If we all clubbed together do you think we could get enough to up the reward to £10,000 for the same blokes to throw a few more bottles at Gold in his Roller.
-
What a load of old arse CCTV footage is, It could have been my brother (it isn't by the way) and I wouldn't recognise him from that awful picture
-
Back and to the left. Back... and to the left.
Go back to be birmingham, your government has this all under control! whens american gladiators on?

Guilty as charged. Shhhhh.
-
Was there any damage to Golds car?
If not then what offence are they being pursued for.... Drunk and disorderly or public order?
-
Why is the one on the right in the company of an 8-bit computer character?
-

Have to say, with no concrete evidence [which if it was a legal requirement for internet posts would see a drastic reduction in internet message board postings] I'm inclined to doubt the veracity of the autograph - it somehow smacks of pick and mix publicity ingredients. Caveat - I still believe whoever did it was wrong to do so.
-
The one on the left is surely Harry Redknapp.
Where do I get my prize from?
-
Fuck me, is he still going on about it?
Twat.
-
Dont want our club involved in any "mindless" violence. Thats the "scums" mental;ity. Just wish we had someone in midfield who could be that violent. PS. If you are on this forum can you give Downing a ring and pass on some tips about how to be aggressive in a one to one situation cheers .....

Is the bloke on the right walking like that because he's got massive gonads, and if so, why have they been pixelated?

I think a dwarf is giving him a blow-job. Either that or he lives in Lilliput.
