Had a happy ending.

Turns out the Express weren't willing to bring it to tribunal, presumably because they knew they'd lose, because obviously pointing out accurate information isn't grounds for dismissal if you're a journalist. It still amazes me to this day that more wasn't made of that bus attack in the media, but I guess the scouse mafia have managed to silence any dissenting voices, using Hillsborough as protection.

Looking back at it, and the headlines (the ones you can actually find) were all "Klopp condemns idiots who damaged Manchester City bus." Sounds like they accidentally backed into it when parking or something. In fact, you don't have to scroll down too far before the stories about that attack disappear, and they're replaced by one of a City fan (singular) attacking the Liverpool bus with a brick (funny how the word 'attack' makes a return when it's the other way round, isn't it?). That's on Google images. On the main Google search, literally the only thing that appears is the story in which Liverpool are the victims. You have to actually alter the date range to get news about one of the most shameful fan-related incidents in the past 20 years.

Nice to see comparisons with how it was reported when West Ham fans did similar.



In fact, some West Ham fans at the time were comparing the reporting of each incident.

An act of precision bombing to get it in there, culprit cant have been on Guinness and curry the night before.
 
RE: West Ham. That was their last ever match at Upton Park and there were thousands upon thousands ticketless in the streets. Traffic was shocking too and the rags bus got caught.

Liverpool’s attack on our bus was premeditated and helped by the route being published in advance.

Same, you can hit someone properly and get less , for what he did putting him in prison seems a huge over reaction , when you can drive drunk/ drugged and get less/ off , as katie price proved
