Makes it sound as though opposing fans clashed, when that isn't what happened here.

Seeing as they're both Villa fans, that doesn't really support what everyone's implying.

What is everyone implying? Only Ralphy has said the victim was murdered.

Maybe, it does say the driver was arrested on suspicion of murder. I'd have though an accident would have been an arrest on suspicion of death by dangerous driving or similar?

Read it again. It says a man has been arrested on suspicion of murder. Very different.

The way that story reads is that everyone's meant to think some nutter Birmingham fan did it... which is the way all the media is portraying. It only clarifies on the last point.

Oh right, yeah I agree with that then.

My instant reaction was that opposing fans had clashed etc.

Me too. I also heard that the cab driver bore a passing resemblance to Zidane and drove a Honda Jazz in a furious "McDonalds" style.

I remember someone once likened your hair to his, although having never met you, it seemed like the easiest bandwagon to board. Well, that and the Honda Jazz Club! :D
