Iain Hume online petition


The more I read about Iain Hume’s head injury in Barnsley’s recent game v Sheffield United, the more I realize this is a potentially career ending injury. A cracked skull from a brutal elbow to the head by Chris Morgan.

Barnsley manager Simon Davey visited Iain and said he is now out of the high dependency unit after receiving an operation for his head injury.

“The operation went well but he is very down and very angry. He has a scar that runs from his forehead in the shape of a horseshoe right round to his ear.

There are currently many demands for action to be taken against Chris Morgan, as well as an online petition being circulated asking the police to investigate the matter. So far, over 2100 have signed. If you are a fan of Iain, or are just sick of seeing this kind of deliberate brutality in the game, consider signing this. Let’s hope the event gets investigated fully and some justice is done.

Most videos of the incident have been pulled from YouTube, but here is a (very poor) quality vid of the incident.
