Thanks
To those who picked me up, dusted me down and then gave statements to the police when I was attacked (from behind) by a little scrote who, with his friends had been causing mayhem on the train from Ware to Hertford East this evening.
Needless to say the cowards were not capable of picking on anyone unless they were mob-handed or their victim had been knocked to the ground. Nevertheless a salutary lesson for anyone who actually challenges violent and anti-social behaviour. Watch your back when walking away…..!!

Lets hope the little bastards get what they deserve from the courts, & not the all too common slap on the wrist.
Well done Mr.T

Police got an "suspect" within an hour or so. We will see........ Irony is that looking a bit battered people are giving me a wide birth. Not least some Millwall suporters giving me suspicious looks as we came out of Sheffield on the train this evening. If only they knew!!

Power to you, Mr Tigger, and all those not intimidated by these immature, obnoxious little gits.

None of us know what will happen when we are faced with similar circumstances. I've often said something on trains etc and thought .. Oh dear. There but for the Grace of God! Good for you Tigger - hope the little so and so is properly processed and not given a smacked wrist and sent on his way.

There is no CCTV installed at Hertford East, although a planning application has been submitted. There's also an application for an additional camera (to the town scheme) to be installed opposite Hertford East by the Mill Road roundabout, I assume to cover the entrance (much of the "imported" crime in Hertford comes via the railway line).

Although Steve, One are thinking about/installing - not too sure how advanced they are - putting cameras all along line including Hertford East. Unfortunately for me, they will not be linked into Stevenage control as yet. I believe the local police will have access to Railway Police photos. But the camera in Mill Road will be an absolute boon as all CCTV control will need is a One timetable and pan the cameras as soon as a train enters. We will know before the scrotes do, when they have arrived in town. Because at the moment it is through this link that most of the problems are arriving.
Most of our familiar friends from Hertford North are now to be found further up the Hertford North link as they are spotted as soon as they enter Stevenage station. But ... the towns they target have nothing like the sophistication that exists in Hertford.
None of this is of any comfort to Tigger but thought I might pass on some relevant info.

Well done Tiggs. Thought I'd add my voice to the majority of people who are with you and against them.

Was a time when I'd have done the same as Mr T but now, most especially since the chicken shop attack, I shy away from the confrontation. Well done for standing up to them - be careful in the future...the little oiks don't care about anything these days except themselves.

I suspect that less Crime would be imported into Hertford East if One Railway didn't stop at all stations to Hertford East via all of those dodgy stops on the way.
