Ok, I am happy to keep running with this.



There was no drink on the plane and a few people had had a few beers
A significant amount of alcohol was found hidden in the last six rows of the aircrfat after landing in Cardiff. This was detailed and taken away by the police.



A guy, sitting behind the woman then tapped the stewardesses shoulder
The "Tap" required medical treatment, documented by the police.



AT ON (sic)POINT DURING
ALL THIS DID THE PILOT LEAVE HIS CABIN AND COMEOUT AND SEE WHAT WAS HAPPENING
Good, or he would have been in serious breach of the guidlines recently by the Department of Transport and the CAA





I was sitting in row 3 so had a pretty good view of the cabin door
If this gentleman was sitting in row 3 he could not have been aware of what was happening in the back of the aircraft where the disturbance took place



The astonishing thing being that the 144 "rioters" from the plane were put on buses which were told to stop at
two service stations where there was absolutely no police precense.
but 6 passengers who have been charged with offences who remained in Cardiff.

There is no doubt that the majority of passengers on this flight were good humoured fans enjoying their day out to support their team. Unfortunately, as mentioned above, a small group of passengers broke the law, endangered an aircraft, and are being dealt with accordingly.
