It is called confirmation bias but, that said, LFC fans don't exactly help themselves with the way they frequently behave. I totally agree about the French police though. They are the worst in the world with football crowds (worse even than the Madrid police). I saw enough problems at Monaco and the crowd was only about 12,000 but there was lots of crushing outside (and to be fair lots of ticketless fans, mostly locals but also some City) Paris was always going to be a shit show and that's why I was actually relieved City didn't get there. An all-English final would have been horrific in Paris where most of the locals despise British fans.

Yet we've had no problems when we played there.

I lived in Paris for 4 years, went to the stadium often, even wearing my City shirt in the stadium and around town, and had no issues whatsoever and made lots of friends there.

The only reason there was a problem last night was because tens of thousands of ticketless fans (or fans with fake tickets) turned up, and Liverpool fans ABOVE ANY OTHER should know it's the worst thing you can do, and why. No excuse whatsoever.

It’s hilarious reading some of this shite today - folk have watched , maybe , a video or two or to be generous three all of which are 20- 30 seconds long and again let’s be generous 44 seconds and those fit the narrative they want to hear and they make these deluded comments - you sad fuckers - we dodged a bullet not going to Oatis and that is a fact - the dippers aren’t angels abut with the so called ‘welcome ‘ parties they didn’t have a chance - the blues would have got the same sadly - the French are shit organisation - they are renowned for it

Charactitistics of a cult

  • The group is focused on a living leader to whom members seem to display excessively zealous, unquestioning commitment.
  • The group is preoccupied with bringing in new members.
  • Questioning, doubt, and dissent are discouraged or even punished.
  • Mind-numbing techniques (such as meditation, chanting, speaking in tongues, denunciation sessions, debilitating work routines) are used to suppress doubts about the group and its leader(s).
  • The leadership dictates sometimes in great detail how members should think, act, and feel.
  • leaders may prescribe what types of clothes to wear.
  • The group is elitist, claiming a special, exalted status for itself, its leader(s), and members (for example: the leader is considered the Messiah or an avatar; the group and/or the leader has a special mission to save humanity).
  • The group has a polarized us- versus-them mentality, which causes conflict with the wider society.
  • The group's leader is not accountable to any authorities (as are, for example, military commanders and ministers, priests, monks, and rabbis of mainstream denominations).
  • The group teaches or implies that its supposedly exalted ends justify means that members would have considered unethical before joining the group (for example: collecting money for bogus charities).
  • The leadership induces guilt feelings in members in order to control them.
  • Members' subservience to the group causes them to cut ties with family and friends, and to give up personal goals and activities that were of interest before joining the group.
  • Members are expected to devote inordinate amounts of time to the group.
  • Members are encouraged or required to live and/or socialize only with other group members

If that doesn't sum up their supporters then nothing will.
