You'll get chinned lad,' Matthews warned. 'You'll get chinned. Mate, I'll come right up and bam.' 'You won't, though,' one of the fan's friends replied.  'Who are you?' Another asked as Matthews protested.  'You probably won't. You want to walk around, and video someone else,' the second man said. 'Go video somewhere else, no one gives a f*** mate.' Continuing to call on Matthews to move on, the group of fans gained support, with a fourth man saying: 'You ain't going to do nothing', after appearing to point out that his camera would incriminate him.  'Shut up, ***,' Matthews said amid the taunts.  'Go find another kid to speak to, lad,' the first man told Matthews as he turned his back on him.  'You said you were going to chin him, so chin him,' the second encouraged mockingly.  Earlier in the evening, Matthews had caused more chaos by interrupting a filmed segment for DAZN by grabbing the mic and shouting: 'Stop the boats'.  Matthews' segment in the BBC documentary also saw him open up on his belief in some conspiracy theories.  He told Theroux: 'I feel like the people who run the world, they don’t have our best intentions... they use vibrations that are negatively going to bring you down.’ When asked by Theroux who he thought ‘controlled all of that’, Matthews left viewers shocked with a deeply anti-Semitic response, simply stating it was 'the Jews'.  The comments below have not been moderated.
