I don't know this man personally but he lives in my area and he has looked the same even when he was in his 30's. As a kid I think we all called him Chicken man but as you get older your not as much as a **** as you are as a child.


Its a disgrace that someone would actually attack this person and it shows the country has a heart for a person who must of had a hard life?

can't believe someone attacked him

When I was a kid and on my way to school, there was a bloke with downs that would stand waiting for his 'special' bus, a few of my mates would take the ****, but I always felt sorry for him.
It must be hard to be dealt a ****ty card like that from birth, and go through life with people looking and talking about you. But for someone to mug him

they should be strung up, they are a waste of oxygen

Just seen this on BBC news, how on earth anyone can hurt someone who is so vulnerable is beyond me. Scumbags!!

RA Dunk

Exactly, the person who did this is a total ******* coward and deserves to be shot.

RA Dunk

Good to see the blokes done well out of this now.

Lets hope he can spend it as I think it will just sit in an account as at his age and with his disability I can't see him spending much of it?

RA Dunk

I was actually thinking I hope it doesn't make him a target for ar$eholes and tea leafs, now every dodger between here and Timbucktoo knows he has a few quid...

I didn't realise the money wasn't in an account for him? Lets hope this young woman who set up the fund doesn't take a management fee.

RA Dunk

Me either, I see the parasites (errrr, financial advisers) have been in contact with her already, they don't hang around....

Did you see his comments about it, (can't find the quote but it was along the lines of)

"I've only got a fractured collar bone"

Jamie

Over 200k now.

dpb

Cowards


But anyway , yes slightly uncomfortable with what she's getting out of it...

tony de wonderful

I'd break my collar bone for 200k.

greenonedave

Maybe a reward of £3000, May find and damage the culprit,

dpb

You probably would

tony de wonderful

Why is he getting so much money?

GWJ

A lot of people have donated a few quid

stevebt

iTrader: (8)

He isn't a normal person and his life will of been full of ridicule at best, at least the money will help him to get something other people consider normal?


I hope he wastes the lot on prostitutes

Turbohot

Certainly. It's a disgrace. Very nice of that beautician girl to kick off fundraising for him. She has a heart.

RA Dunk

lol, how funny would that be in next weeks papers, he spent the lot on coke and high class hookers!

stevebt

iTrader: (8)

I doubt even that much money will get him high class hookers

tony de wonderful

So you think all abnormal people should get a free 250k/a house?

RA Dunk

Jesus FFS give it up Tony.

































His new found fortune could set him up as a BTL Landlord though, you would just love that would you.

Chip

No, but maybe this guy deserves a little bit of luck in what has most probably been a pretty ****ty life so far.

stevebt

iTrader: (8)

I bet you wouldn't complain if something happened to you and the donations came in.

I don't even think this man could be on the undateables as they would need similar to make a date? I can't see him spending the money as he will hide away like all the people who feel like society judges them to be abnormal.

To give you an idea on how pathetically small this man is, here he is next to a 21 year old girl.

Pretty much sums it up.

Why question some human kindness Tony? Somebody felt bad about what happened to him, and decided to try to help. Obviously, she was not alone in feeling that way, hence such a massive response.

tony de wonderful

Not wanting to sound like a cynic, but is there any evidence the guy was actually mugged and didn't just slip over whilst putting his bins out? Cry for help or something?

With the amount of money raised (close to 300 k and climbing) I'm feeling uncomfortable with it.
