British father cautioned for headbutting boy who fouled son
A father was issued with a caution for headbutting a youngster he thought had fouled his son during an under-15s game.
The 40-year-old became incensed when he thought his son, who was playing for the BTC Southampton Kestrels, received “a bad tackle” from the Totton Rangers player.
The unnamed father ducked under a barrier and headbutted the victim in the face, the Southern Daily Echo reported.
The Southampton and District Tyro Football League U-15s match was abandoned with three minutes to go and the Kestrels leading 6-0.
His 15-year-old victim was taken to hospital with a bleeding nose. Hampshire FA said it is awaiting the referee’s report before deciding whether to take any further action.
