Used to be, but I heard London is worse now, all the illegal immigrants.

First you attack the English, now you attack illegal immigrants , are you a xenophobe/ racist ?

Some unconscious racism going on with you I think. What makes you think illegal immigrants are a different colour?

Different Country = Xenophobe .

Much of the knife crime in London is committed by Black kids and you seem to be suggesting that the British Black kids committing knife crime are illegal immigrants whereas in fact they are British citizens

I know what xenophobe means.

I never mentioned race.

apparently he's connected to some Pattaya boiler room, you know about that?

No, have not heard, but i believe he does know someone who knows someone. 

I've just watched the video and read the full article. It doesn't matter what words preceded it, there's no justification for this despicable and cowardly attack. And yes, both the perp and victim were British, but what has that got to do with anything? The victim could easily have been another nationality lying there on the press bench finishing up his set. The fact that the perp hightailed it after this brutal attack speaks volumes about his admission of guilt. Had the perp felt any justification at all about his actions, he would have stuck around to give his side of the story, or at least finish his own set on the bench as he felt so entitled. But he didn't. He ran. Let's hope the perp sees the inside of a court house and faces some sort of justice.

I can't believe this site has fallen victim to perpetuating what has been proven to be a scam for a go fund me on all the legitimate Pattaya social media pages.

Good news is his family have gone the gofundme route.  Why are these uninsured touristpeople and their families all apparently skint?

So, if he gets a payoff, does he refund the go fund me money ?

Oh do leave Neeranam alone, don't you realise that some of his best friends are English?  ????

What nationality is the attacker? I could probably take a reasonable guess but don't want to jump the gun.

Your average Pom/Yank/Aussie wouldn't do something unprovoked like this. We're not that short fused and are (mostly) taught to practice inner restraint and discipline. 

Really, please share some details/facts on all of that.

 

" ... Pom/Yank/Aussie wouldn't do something unprovoked like this."   What a silly comment.

 

And just yesterday in the USA 19 primary school kids and 2 teachers shot and killed by a local.

He has 2 young daughters and goes on holiday to Pattaya for 6 months, jeez.

He'd just broken up with a wife of 20+ years, needed a break, makes sense to me

I am very sorry for him being attacked and hurt like that. However, I fail to understand how he have to save his eye to be able to go home??? Even blind people can fly.

If I remember rightly (correct me if I'm wrong) this guy is an expat and if he returned to the UK he would have to pay for his NHS treatment at 150% of cost. Better to get the repair done here especially if the attacker has to foot the bill.

Not every assault or go fund me is a scam, but I do take your point about some being just that. In this particular instance, it looks totally legit. Otherwise, it's one helluva an elaborate scam to get the British press, hospital, gym and everybody else involved in on it. Sometimes there are genuine cases that deserve our compassion rather than inbred cynicism.

He is not an expat, 6 months holiday, the attacker offered 100 000 in total, his surgery alone is estimated at 750 000 or something like that,

Looking for an update on the guy arrested?

If you watch the interview, guy was actually caught on the spot, he did not get away, other members blocked him from leaving. He showed up to police interview with a lawyer, and made an offer of 100 000, which was turned down (naturally) as it is right now, i am guessing some negotiations taking place behind closed doors and case getting ready to go to court.

 

Attacker would have to pay the victim, plus cover all medical and pay lets call it police fine.

 

Attacker claims he has no money, but he sold his house and dojo in UK just recently, so he does have the money.

 

If i had to guess, he will fight it for a while and then cover all medical and most likely few baht to the victim and perhaps good behavior, but because it made international news, it may also go the other way, where he ends up in court and jailed
