Thats where Liverpool as a club should condemn their own for the chaos they are causing towards the opposition coach arriving - not once but twice now this has happened (Dortmund - where a player was actually injured for fucks sake) but it still goes on.
The club and the merseyside police were happy for this to go ahead and the police facilitating viewing platforms on their vans and announcing the coachtravel path on social media - wtf....GMP would never allow anything like this to go ahead. It is both the club and police's ignorance in all this that results in the after effects where innocents get the brunt.
Foreign football fans - like the Italians, would have seen the pictures and the video footage of the incident with us at anfield. They probably were rubbing their hands at the prospect of meeting liverpool. The whole saga has built to this point, and it will go beyond this because the return leg in Rome is going to be horrific for any travelling liverpool fangoing to the game.
Liverpool FC and merseyside police need to hang their heads in shame because they have played a massive part in all this.
I will add one more point as well....regardless of whether any scouse fan will go to Russia for the World Cup, russian hooligans will have been watching this and this will only add fire to the flames for any innocent england fan going
