Just glad I'm not the guy to the right who appears to have lost the bottom half of his arm in a very nasty accident.....or it could just be some dodgey photoshopping!

When Liverpool fans use "oil money" as an insult, direct them to John W Henry II's company website, where it says....

"John W. Henry & Company, Inc. (JWH®) is a United States-based alternative asset manager and one of the longest established managed futures advisors in the world. Using a broad spectrum of worldwide futuresmarkets, including agricultural, currency, energy, interest rate, metal, and stock index contracts."

Police report blames organisers for failure to manage British supporters - Get French Football News

In a report sent to the interior ministry and seen by BFMTV, the Paris police prefecture blamed UEFA for the chaotic scenes outside the Stade de France before

In a report sent to the interior ministry and seen by BFMTV, the Paris police prefecture blamed UEFA for the chaotic scenes outside the Stade de France before and during the Champions League final on Saturday.

The statement read: “The events provide evidence of important failures in the management of British supporters by the organisers (UEFA).”

The report adds that the situation was exacerbated by the ARTP strikes that made travel to the stadium difficult, whilst the report also said that a number of falsified tickets aggravated the situation.

“Many thousands of supporters went to the filtering through points, a notable number of them didn’t have tickets are had fake tickets. There were undoubtedly between 30,000 and 40,000 on top of the 80,000 allowed into the stadium who were in this situation,” the prefecture’s letter added.

One of the filtering points was subsequently lifted, which allowed, “between 300 and 400 youths from the Seine-Saint-Denis district, profiting from the lifting of the filtering point, trying to force entry.”

Klopp questioned the allocation Liverpool Echo reported:

"Liverpool confirmed Thursday that the club had received an allocation of 19,618 tickets for the final, with 382 seats set aside for associates of players, club staff and VIPs, as per UEFA guidelines"

So 30 to 40000 without tickets or with fake tickets is on the shoulders of their manager IMO.

[bluejon]

seems the new talking point from liverpool fans to prove they are in fact better than us is that they had a better win percentage than us this season. congrats to them on that trophy to go with the longest parade trophy

Keep us posted. Maybe start low key by humming "Zadok the Priest" quietly to yourself.

Well...

Only one of them was in the office (a guy I normally sit next to).

Conversation went like this:

'Have you recovered from the football at the weekend?'

'Hmmm'

'Must be tough losing out on the CL after narrowly missing out on the PL title the week before. Did you watch the game?'

'I turned it off with about 20 minutes to go. We BATTERED them in the first half, but I knew we weren't scoring in the second half. I know we've won 2 cups but it all seems a bit hollow'.

'Why? That's not a bad haul'.

'We were in 3 finals and never scored a goal... Did you see Forest were back in the Prem?.

Chuckling to myself all the way back downstairs with my brew ;-)

Why the fuck would anyone in their right mind try to 'jib in' to the fucking CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL?

To be fair he did get man of the match.

Club with a history of fan trouble. A history of too many fans turning up. Are encouraged by THEIR manager to go ticketless to other countries to support their club. Trouble happens and the media ignore the completly fucking dangerous situation that manager is creating.

Any semi competent idiot could have predicted the events of Saturday night. Klopp did call for everyone including those without tickets to come to Paris as it was a big city.

I have no problem with this, normal ticketless fans would go to a fan park, or a bar to watch the game and enjoy the experience.

Every Madrid fan seemed to get in without issues and there were no fans spilling onto and obscuring the aisles or exits.

There had literally been weeks of social media about fake tickets and these lot's reputation for being misbehaved is well deserved. Utter cunts trick to jib in or use a fake ticket to deny your owns supporters ffs. Queues built up up as many with genuine tickets were turned away. Tons of videos online of twats climbing the fences, rushing ticket barriers. Police went in hard, OTT perhaps. But the central point remains, cunts acting like cunts denied their own fans entry. I get the organisation could have been better but maybe they were expecting people to behave in a civilised manner.

The 180 degree by all of our media who saw less than peak Wenger, is pitiful. There will be consequences to these hooligans actions but they don't give a shit about their own let alone other fans.
