Given that he was (reportedly) 5m from his hotel door/lift, and that he looked to have a number of club officials around him, I would've kept on walking, and looked to those who are in a better position (ie. club officials or security) to block the guy from getting through the door.
Well you use words like "seem" so you don't know. Go and listen to the interviews and get the whole story. Also there were 3 guys not 1, Fagan was pushing the other 2 away. You have just watched the 10 seconds that obviously been edited by the idiots.
Here are some facts from the interview - paraphrasing from Fagan
- At the traffic lights down from the Playford the 3 pissed blokes approached Clarko asking for a photo.
- Clarko Politely declined and said something along the lines of "Not tonight Fellas"
- For the next 70 to 80 m the 3 pissed blokes were fairly relentless trying to get Clarko to oblige with a photm after he has sad no
- Clarko continued to say no politely and was walking away from them towards the hotel the whole time
- The 3 pissed blokes stared to get physical bumping into Fagan and trying to get at Clarko
- one pissed bloke got infront of Clarko with his phone/camera
- At that time Clarko felt that his personal space was invaded and pushed the guy out of the way
- When Fagan was asked if they felt threatened his answer verbatim ".......... you don't know who you are dealing with, you could tell these guys were pretty up and about looking for a little bit of trouble"
- Fagan said we were just trying to get back to the hotel safely and I was pushing and shoving as much as Clarko but I wasn't on camera.
