ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

Who would have thought ?

UEFA bears 'primary responsibility' for Champions League final failures, report finds

The match in Paris last May was delayed by 37 minutes and saw supporters pepper-sprayed and tear-gassed by police as they tried to enter the stadium.

Breaking news: it’s never their fault

An embarrassing Liverpool love-in on Sky Sports News at the moment.

Is there any genuine reason why the Liverpool part of the stadium had fans crowded in the exit areas by the stairwells, whereas the Madrid end no such issues.

I can't imagine that would be caused by too few fans being given entry to the stadium. Quite the contrary, right?

Before the cries come later, thought I’d stick this on here, so we can reference the “celebrating” of death.



The same fat head who took a Steaua Bucharest flag to the last derby.

I thought David Guest was dead?

So according to Sky Sports News not only are the RS exonerated, as expected, they gleefully point out but they actually saved the day by showing so much restraint under extreme provocation. Pity they never exhibited the same restraint in 1985

That's why Andre the giant can wear his flayed off skin.

Just read the BS Guardian report. A leaked report btw, so that's a sign the Establishment Club's media want to get out ahead of a more balanced UEFA Report to set the narrative.

The real news will be the elaboration of the 21 recommendations on how they conduct security for UEFA finals in the future. I haven't seen those recommendations yet, but I bet they're choc full of anti-Kopite rioting measures such as multiple Kopite filtering points to weed out the blag ticket chancers and ticket robbers.

That'll be the meat of this review.

That's why they're called the Establishment Club.

As I said above: this is leaked news. There is no report yet. This news story has all the classic signs of narrative management about it.

I'll wait to read the UEFA report without the Kopite filter.

Up the french police
And the french youths

fake ticket gimps!!!

I was laughing my arse at the extent to which they were going on about the remarkable behaviour of the Liverpool fans to prevent further tragedy!

 

[davek]

Cant wait for the real report to come out. Especially the security recommendations to stop future Kopite riots.

Forget the Guardian Kopite filter lies. Wait for the UEFA report. That will be a lot more nuanced in spreading the blame.

Why has no one asked the single most important question yet?
