  I'm understanding of ROGER'S viewpoint, you need to be a regular traveller on british rail(or there new name ) to see what goes on.
  
  That said, and on this case, there is no doubt as i said in my previous posting, that the guard was in need of some kind of course on how to deal with situations like these.
  
  The yob(yep, happy to call him such) was clearly abusive towards the guard for quite some time.
  Now if it were correct that he had an incorrect ticket(i suspect this not to be the case) then the yob rather than abusing the guard(at the end of the day he doesn't make the rules of travel) he could have, at a later date taken it up with the rail company.
  
  So let's please look at this in an even handed way, yes ok the yob shouldn't have been man handled off the train, but frustration does creep in.
  then of course this yob was as guilty as the guy putting him off the train.
  
  
  is ther yob to be prosecuted by the police?>
  is the rail company looking to prosecute the yob.
  
  
  all to quick we jump to the defense of the minority who give a lot of grief to the majority.
