Sad breaking news of a welsh fan who has died at wembley tonight. 6 people arrested also believed to be Welsh. Very sad news indeed.
 
Unconfirmed reports of a fight between rival Welsh fans. Someone went to enjoy a football match and now won't be seen by their family, all over a bit of pride. tragic indeed.

In fairness, none of us know if that's the case yet.
Agree it's ****ing tragic though.

From that link...........

It is not believed inter-club rivalry is behind the incident.

That point was added to the report in the latest update just after 8 this morning and will not have been seen earlier.
 
I was there last night and there were loads of pissed up muppets hanging around outside the stadium, you could tell a few of them would end up kicking off... It's really sad that something like this can still happen in this day and age. In fact, with the amount of coppers that were around last night, I'm surprised it did.

We don't know what happened yet. What about the possibility of an epileptic fit, causing a fall, causing a head injury, causing shock, causing a heart attack?

As Macky has already suggested, it's a tragedy - but let's not speculate.

An absolute tragedy. But, hey, Bob, were you not speculating in your preamble?

True, but I doubt six people would have been arrested and the Met's Homicide and Serious Crime Command would be investigating if nothing untoward happened. There would have been cameras everywhere around Wembley and I would have thought it would be very easy to rule out foul play with the amount of witnesses and police that would have been around.

I hope it's not the case that this is down to violence, drunken or otherwise, but it certainly looks that way at the minute with the information in the news report. But as Keynes once said, "When the facts change, I change my opinion".
 
This is a tragedy. The guy was a pupil at a school which my old mum taught at. Dropped her at the airport this morning and glad I didn't know the details as it would have spoiled her trip.
I'm not going to speculate on what happened. All gone a bit mad in Cardiff City webland.
 
I was just one of the local shops. Don't know what radio station they had on but they said on the news that police now believe that there was a scuffle involving a group of fans, including tthe deceased, but that the scuffle was not the direct cause of the bloke's death. They reckon that they will get round to checking the video some time this afternoon. The six arrested remain in custody.
