Reading Wannabe Hoolies in Putney

Haven't seen shenanigans in years but watching the police chase the Reading youth through Putney was pathetic.  Haven't they heard of CCTV?  An early morning call for all of them hopefully.

I saw 4 police horses, 3 vans and numerous coppers surrounding er... 1 bloke. There were a few other Herberts milling about buy it all seemed like a bit of overkill.

I don't know exactly what they were doing. Seemed like they'd been kicked out of a pub or something and were chased by the cops on foot. Didn't seem like they were looking for a fight either. Very bizarre.

We were pushed to the side of the pavement by a rather rotund officer who was in 'hot' pursuit of the offenders.  I think he was harking back to some sort of 1980s dream of being Body or Doyle.  Weird.

Maybe the pub was the Coat and Badge.  As I walked up Putney High St there were a group (50 or so?) of lads running from Lacy Road into the High St.  I went into Putney Exchange and abut 10 mins later when I came out there was a smaller group 'kettled' by horses and vans.
The world is made up of electrons, protons, neurons, possibly muons and, definitely, morons.

So was I, literally pushed aside by an officer shouting 'MOVE!'
