UEFA Independent Inquiry

Realistically if you are the police … If you have a group of fans either without tickets or without valid tickets at the front of a massive queue of people refusing to move because they aren’t being let in, what is the appropriate course of action?
 
Reading Tomorrow's Papers Today and they are all taking the same line, that French authorities are so eager to the lay the blame elsewhere that they are, can you believe this, desperate enough to point the finger at jolly wonderful saintly Uncle Klopp, for, of all things, can you believe this, telling Liverpool supporters to all go to Paris without a ticket, which just goes to show the bizarre lengths they will go to and proves that it had nothing to do with orderly harmless Liverpool supporters.
 
Can we just clarify (if not already done) that there is a difference between fans being in Paris to support their team and those fans trying to access the stadium without tickets. Seen a few scousers saying UEFA couldn’t handle the numbers, which is a bit absurd given only a set number of people are supposed to be in the stadium, and clearly many more either got in without a ticket or attempted to do so
Yep, nothing wrong with going over there to soak up the atmosphere and hang out in the fan zones. But they shouldn’t be anywhere near a queue to get into the stadium.

Completely agree, made the point about fan zones earlier.

Had we been at the final, I'd have probably got a ticket, but if I hadn't, and I'd gone anyway, I'd have sought out a place to be with blues.

As I also said earlier, once I knew they were through, I wouldn't have gone had we got there, ticket or no ticket, I've no interest in spending any time with feral scum that many of them are (not all obviously).
 
Yep. Tickets + id. Its a pain but it stops all this type of stuff. When you need a passport to get into a ground next season it will be because of this. They should have done it here but fkd up.
Passports and tickets with names on was the big thing from EUFA in the season we played Celtic but fizzled out.
 
I think Liverpool fans will be absolved of any blame & the organisers & police will take the hit.
Personally, i think it just turned out to be the perfect storm, with the organisation, heavy handed police, local kids & fake tickets all playing a part in this.
 
Will be a waste of time dippers booking hotels in Istanbul , Eufa will ensure that dipperpool won't be in any final there!!
