  • What about the one that recorded it and the ones that was egging him on?? I’m glad one has been arrested but surely they should answer for there acts as well. That poor lad didn’t deserve any of it.

  • Be lucky if he even gets a caution my son got bottled in the head a few years back and all the guy got was a caution my son had to have a cut on his head glued not major but just putting things into perspective

  • A caution and a ban from town centre is most likely what the little prick will get..name and shame him and let the public give him a well deserved hiding..I hate bullys put his name up

  • If police go on his FB page they will see who his mates are, should be able to identify them from that. Hope the young man who was attacked is able to have a belated birthday treat with money raised for him x

  • Telford Centre disgusted watching this, well done to the staff from DB Roberts who stepped in to help. There are security manning that door everyday to ensure you walk on the right, seems it’s ok to jump a young lad though

  • All of them should be charged. Hopefully prison/detention centre awaits him

  • He will get a caution and that’s about it, which he will think gives him bragging rights to act like even more of a tool! Only the rest of Telford think he’s a little coward boy, that poor boy I think is brave to not retaliate back like an animal, its only a fight when both people take part, this was nothing but a cowardly attack from a boy who thought he was Mr Big bollocks!
