City & Zagreb Charged

[FootballSense]

Lets get a sense of perspective. These were hard core hooligans from Dinamo Zagreb living up to their reputation with little interest in the actual game. They were intent on causing trouble and damage from the outset. Hooliganism across Europe is a major problem involving organised, nasty thugs.

UEFA need to recognise the problems these types of travelling fans cause and the real challenge in controlling them. UEFA`s charges and punishments should be targeted on the real perpetrators.

So, the BBC and The Mail lead with City being charged, yet the greater offence is second and only described as Dinamo Zagreb being in "hot water". This is typical of the distortions of the British media.

It`s time UEFA and the media got their priorities right.

To be fair it wont seem funny when explained and as GDM is far too polite to reply I will. You replied to a post asking why City had been charged with ….
'Charged for retaliating and throwing stuff back at them'

GDM was making a point that it doesn't matter where the missiles came from 'we threw them end of'. do you get it now ?

Do be so condescending

The Zagreb fan throwing things was white and bald, so easily identifiable.

Sorry if the description offends anybody.

Maybe, a more politically correct and less offensive description is "the Zagreb fan throwing things was a lighter shade of grey and follicly challenged" ?

It’s fine if you describe/compare white people, don’t worry!

Another charge against us. What a surprise.

Fuck it we may as well just burn down Anfield and be done with it.

Not sure why everybody is so outraged by this. They were a complete and utter disgrace, throwing things into a crowd is one of the most low life scummy things you can do when there’s zero control over where that object goes, could very easily take out a kids eye. Yes they initiated it but it doesn’t condone the morons in our own section throwing stuff back with equally no control over where that lands. UEFA should be charging them for multiple offences but you can’t moan at city being charged when the charge happened.

The facts are correct we did throw stuff(not me personally i was at the other end)

Excuses excuses. Toothpick armed ****.

I think you're onto a plan here.

Not a good plan given Merseyside Constabulary's reputation for swiftly identifying and charging culprits.

Yep. A great plan.

And thats why I don`t bother any more going to these bent fucking games mate.Next time we should just employ riot police to sort the fuckers out.

For me... supporting City is the only thing that matters....the actions of others would never stop me going to support my team. In fact, if I stopped going, I would feel like the enemy had won.
