TOTAL bollocks???
The troubles at the turnstiles were down to fans not being able to get into the ground for various reasons. It only takes a hand full of people kicking off at a single gate to cause a backlog, and before you know it, there's chaos which the police have to respond to. Yes, the police were heavy handed, but that is down to the reputation of some Liverpool fans for being troublemakers based on years of evidence.
It's awful that fans with legitimate ticket were turned away, and I personally would be fuming, but that was only down to the barcodes on the legitimate tickets being cancelled by fake tickets. We'll never know for sure if there wouldn't have been trouble if there hadn't been numerous fans with fake tickets or no tickets at the ground because that wasn't what happened.
