If it was “an accident”, surely all the more reason to help, regardless of the row that preceded the injury?"
I did exactly as I did earlier today , and clearly , you're right , Arrows . The quote is different .
The only explanation for this must be that Mr. Allen changed the word "they" to "Sutil's group" , because I did not .
This seems pretty curious , as it doesn't really say that Lewis wasn't there , in the group , but does seem to distance him somewhat .
"They" sounded more like it was referring more specifically to Lewis and Adrian .
Wouldn't you be if you were in his shoes?Quote:

Not knowing the facts but surely A small (not tall) boy like Hamilton was not in a position to stop a violent act, he would have just been beaten as well. Come on.Quote:

Oh dear, now we have Hamilton's schooldays being dragged into this!
Bottom line - the incident has been investigated. Sutil, no-one else, was charged. Sutil has been given a suspended sentence and fine.
Roll on the start of the season.
Bingo! That just sums it all up.Quote:

As for the Sutil incident, it seems that Sutil glassed someone either by accident or on purpose. As a consequence, he has been given a suspended sentence. Hamilton says he didn't say it and nobody has claimed otherwise. His solicitor communicated this to the judge and offered his services if required. As it was, a statement was sent to the Court saying what Hamilton witnessed which I would suggest was corroborated by the CCTV footage.
I don't know what all this is about Sutil claiming Lewis was a coward but it all seems a bit strange given the fats, doesn't it.
End of story.
