Hey up mate unless you present at game you only getting second hand info.... am not Liverpool fan at all but a do know that a fair amount of our fans are late getting into game......
And what a stupid post to title this thread!!!!!......will. they ever learn?.....lives were lost in past you nutjob so I doubt anyone would like a repeat!!!!!
Well after watching the fall out on tv following the game it was obviously not as clear cut as it looks and i would like to withdraw my comments above' i have been humbled and it seems you can't take what you see at face value' apologies for any offence caused' lesson learned...
Couldn’t agree more mate! Well said. Some of the comments on this forum are appalling: self righteousness, name calling, discriminatory, stereotyping, extremism and don’t dare to have a political view that’s incompatible to the majority!
Its only an English Disease apparantly - The French fans are far more civilised. Thanks to @Hicksy for spotting this one
Sorry if already posted but has anyone considered the fact the maybe some locals wanted to get in and see Benzema play in the champions league final and just chanced it amongst both sets of fans?
The videos of people climbing over a wall was outside the stadium, and not the wall giving access to the stadium itself. This was a result of police and authorities allowing large numbers of Liverpool fans to be held outside the ground and not let in. I was listening to Capital FM this morning (daughter likes the music) and their presenter was at the game as a neutral with two friends. He described their treatment was disgusting with police parking riot vans inside a tunnel leaving only a two foot gap to squeeze through. Lots of very nervous fans being laughed at by police were then pepper sprayed and tear gassed including kids and disabled ones. The guy had been there two days and said there was no trouble, great behaviour and atmosphere.
well not being flippant at all but it has already happened twice to them. By the looks of reports that keep coming it looks like a complete farce of organisation that started it and was then a mix of nations involved ,
So the French MP taken a leaf out of the UK Tory playbook and just come out with a lie that is astonishingly easy to prove is not true
Choke me smoke the air In this citrus sucking sunshine I don't care You're not all there You've been bought and paid You're a whore and a slave Your dock's not a holy shrine Come taste the end you're mine Here he come Got no question got no love I'm throwing stones at you man I want you black and blue and I'm gonna make you bleed Gonna bring you down to your knees Bye bye badman bye bye
Lots of video of locals crawling under barriers and gaining entry illegally. Some events can be seen here, scroll down.
The muppet of a French Sports Minister claims there were 30-40k people with no tickets trying to get in
The Officially sanctioned Real Madrid fan park was a few minuted from the stadium, the Liverpool one was miles away. The metro station nearest the stadium was shut. The Liverpool fans were funnelled into an underpass that 90% blocked by police vans, so that Police could frisk and check fans arriving. They were being over officious and arsey and then when Liverpool fans got annoyed they were pepper sprayed. The Madrid fans were not treated in the same manner.
Some details here, at the end of the report. There were issues, but not on the same scale. I've also seen Madrid fans on Twitter saying they had issues.
Then it really does suggest there was a bit of an agenda against the English. Terrible then from the French
I wouldn't like to prejudge the French just as I wouldn't like prejudge the Scousers. But, it was a UEFA and French Police problem.
