Football mob hero speaks of rescue

A former soldier has described how he dragged a policeman away from a mob of Glasgow Rangers fans on the rampage.

Tom Bardsley said he feared that Pc Mick Regan was "not going to make it" away from a "pack of wolves who had not been fed for days".

The officer had just got to his feet after being attacked by a 20-strong gang in Manchester city centre when another hooligan came running towards him hell bent on booting him to the floor again.
