Social media users were left horrified this weekend after a video emerges of a ‘lone supporter being attacked by a group of fans’.
The 22 second clip shows the lone fan cornered and assaulted when walking along a bridge. Social media users were left disgusted by what they saw, calling for police action and lifetime bans.
@Footballfights uploaded a clearer version, captioning it “Shocking. 12 Coventry City fans ambushing a Sheffield Wednesday fan yesterday”, with the lad who was attacked able to get up and walk away, before being goaded some more.
Shocking.

To all you in replies saying this didn’t happen are a load of fucking idiots. I was involved in this myself and stood my ground against 12 maybe even more of these cunts.

@Joe_1867 wrote at just before 12pm on the 11th of April: “12 cov just fans jumped 1 Wednesday fan on a bridge and glassed him, with an ambulance now. #swfc”
@18lewis67: “Can say this is true, know the kid who is in the ambulance personally”
@swfctw: “was with him in the hospital mate was there when it happened. he’s home now and looks in a much better way then before”
@swfctw: “me being one of them mate. all i know is the 3 you’re thinking of. Still standing🦉”
@18lewis67: “Theyre all good lads pal stood their own, theyre all back home and sound now thankfully”
@swfctw: “update on the lad who got glassed by them scum bastards, he’s home now and in a much better way than he was when we were sat in hospital with him. #swfc #pusb”
@swfctw: i’m ok mate bit a bloody nose at time but to be fair to the other lads with me stood our ground instead of leaving lads to get kicked fuck out of. More happy knowing my pals at home with no problems with his eye after getting glassed. My nose would recover but he’s got lucky
@BurgarBriggs: Bloody hell mate, thank goodness nowt else happened. As long as everyone’s okay that’s the main thing. UTO🦉
@swfctw: “i don’t know mate. i got a slap and seen my pal get glassed so went to make sure he was alright. didn’t even notice this lad at the time only saw it first on the video. Everyone’s alright though now & these have made a big mistake”
Social media users left horrified gave their reaction after a video emerges of the ‘lone supporter attacked by a group of fans’…
@Malachi_Fletchr: Disgusting lot of cowards, never had a spot in our fan base, never will, I’m sure if anyone spots them at a game they’re getting reported to a steward and police, all the sympathy to the Sheff Wed fan, wishing a speedy recovery. @WMPolice @CBSArena
@michaelrenwick_: Glad to hear that he is better. Unfortunately all fan bases have some scum like this we don’t associate with this type of behaviour. No fan should be attacked at all never mind alone by that many people. We hope they all get caught and done. 🩵
@JackWhitman_7: Disgusting prats, what an embarrassment they are.
@onedmc: Doesn’t matter who they support, this is cowardly & shameful for each lad involved. The Wednesday lad is the bravest in this video, took 12 to be brave enough to take on 1. Hopefully they look back on this when they’re mature enough & cringe at their chicken sh*t actions.
@JackHam94340614: As a cov fan it’s horrible to see, this was me over a month ago in Bristol, got jumped out of nowhere because some lads thought it would be funny to give me a beating because I was an opposition fan. These ain’t no fans of ours. Get them found get them banned, vile behaviour
@TomTom90_: Scum those people are. But I don’t agree labelling a whole fan base scum because of a few pieces of sh*t. Every club has these people unfortunately. Hope the persons okay
@steph_goldie: Most Coventry fans are not like this. Every club has a few rotten apples that come out of the woodwork occasionally. Please don’t tar us all with the same brush. Hope your fan is ok! That is truly awful.
@JasonHa88383945: Glad he is home and on the mend I’m a Blade but I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, I hope them 12 get delt with they should all get a life ban from all football grounds good luck next season see you You a few years
@SimonHaydonx: Glad to hear he is on the mend and I hope they get the knob heads who did this. These twats let us down, we are so sorry, no one should suffer a cowardly attack like that
