Instead of using tear gas the French police should of used pop up job centres to disperse the crowd

Scouse birds not bad lookers but as soon as they open their mouth…………

Depends what they're open their mouth for

 

[Manx Blue]

That's a lot of fake tickets jesus christ

70% of tickets were fake

Wouldn't you choose a Scouse lass over a Spanish senorita?

One city in England that has a problem with inbreeding vs a whole country of 40 million?...obvious answer isn't it?

Well, the vast majority would have behaved in an exemplary manner, but, if 500-2000 had already got in, or had started to balls-up the turnstiles and confuse the system, so that there was an unexpected pile up of fans outside, kettled, confused, and not likely to be going anywhere anytime soon, the authorities are left with a choice.

That choice is, stay calm and let things happen, knowing the build-up might get worse, or nastier, knowing that the turnstiles aren't working and there's already loads of jibbers inside already; or, take the initiative that some of them were probably looking forward to - shift the crowd away, to pre-empt a worse issue from developing, and thereby, fuck the innocent fans - their very hard luck, but, hard luck, nonetheless.

We all know that you cannot ask a crowd like that - desperate to get in - to go back. It won't happen. Once a decision was taken by whoever it was to disperse the crowd, a mess and unhappiness was inevitable.

It was as inevitable as it was forseeable.

That's that then - what a reputable source.

French minister stating that local youths are to blame for climbing over perimeter fencing and mixing with Liverpool supporters caused problems. So it's not just the victims.

Transcript from BBC 5 live drive program from 46.00, discussing tickets for CL final game pre-match.
Liverpool fan: You get the odd one's who bunk in
BBC: Well it's a bit harder than it used to be?

BBC: right, I don't think that's really advisable
Fan: Well that's what thousands of Liverpool fans do
BBC: Well we'll see thank you

Apparently there was ticket fraud on an industrial scale. That’s the Scousers off the hook then!
