Operation whitewash on Sky News.

"The French Authorities are claiming many Liverpool fans tried to get into the stadium using fake tickets. However social media taken by Liverpool fans show a different picture..."

LFC and their fans are a bastions of truth and balance.

Dippers had a word with their owners?

:)

On a serious note. He's done a decent job. Wonder which 12 year old clickbait kid they'll replace him with.

He must have finally realised that true journalism is a dying profession.

He's probably sick of death threats from Dipper's fans in all honesty.

I think he's been pretty fair to us even though I suspect he's been under a lot of pressure editorially.

I took numerous screenshots of scousers selling, gloating or looking for “blag” tickets yesterday, knowing they’ll be deleted as they re-write the actual events.

Of course they won’t have any of it, and Sky Sports and other media outlets saying “I didn’t see anyone with fake tickets” is laughable as how the hell would they know?

None of us were there but I expect the truth is they were partially to blame, along with typically shoddy UEFA organisation and heavy handed French policing. Sounds like a complete shit show all in all, I’m almost relieved in a way we didn’t make it.

According to Google the population of Liverpool is 496,784.

Managing to get every single person out + 103,000 tourists is an impressive feat even by their standards of being best at everything.

500k population (minus 250k for Evertonians)

250k local Liverpool fans meaning a minimum of 350k day trippers?

Someone please check my arithmetic but I find that hard to believe.........

If we were there City will have been blamed and banned from Europe/Close stadium/Fined already. Whilst the media mop up the compo faced scousers and the lawyer charged with suing us for 20 billion quid.
