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

[davek]

Liverpool FC: have they dropped the word 'allegedly' yet or are they still throwing a protective arm round their racist fans?

 

[davek]

This is what deflection looks like...this is how not to condemn racism...



It's "all stadiums" not for now the one it happened in; it's merely Semenyo "reporting being racially abused" not a confirmed reality, and by "someone in the crowd" not a Liverpool fan, Semenyo was "allegedly abused" not having been so.

Yes, it's all subject to confirmation and they have to fence legally, but not to this extent.

BBC still saying the player reported rather than heard racist abuse.
They are pandering to this club, again.

 

[davek]

Absolutely shameless.

Even if it's about Chiesa it's a 'kin outrage of a song using any reference to Juventus fans crying.

Liverpool FC = the ugly face of football.

Was great to see the Refs and the R S back together last night, must have been a long summer for them.

Klopp left him the keys with the engine running.
I doubt they’ll win the league this year.
Shows how desperate they are as a club and fanbase trying to galvanise themselves around the death of 2 brothers just to win a trophy. Really pathetic stuff.
They’ll score goals but their defence is all over the place.
They have a lot of wins at home the last few years but If teams have a go at them on the counter and are organised they’ll crumble home and away.

It’s the first proper match since. It’s a tribute to a player tragically killed. I’d expect nothing less, from any club.

If it continues towards the tail end of the season, you’d have a point.

They took it online post-match too. A deranged cult.

*sigh*

Full explanation of what happened from some in that section last night, Guy sounds an utter bellend who should have been dealt with long ago

I like how they just tuck the racism into the corner but the headline is about Ekitike x

That's just another - drawn out - excuse.

There's no context that mitigates this. He's "just passionate" and "he wears an anti-racism badge on his shirt" doesn't cut it.

It's happened way too many times at Anfield. It's not a freaky aberration as he would suggest and that their club "act fast" to deal with it.

More deflection.

What sort of people are these?

Merseyside Police statement...

Chief Inspector Kev Chatterton the match commander for the Liverpool v Bournemouth game, said: “Merseyside Police will not tolerate hate crime of any form. As with all matches, we work very closely with both Liverpool and Everton FC to ensure the safety of the public , and the players.”

GTF.

Never had anyone out of my fantasy team as fast as Wirtz got punted yesterday, he looked awful.

A RS in your side , is that allowed ?

Was meant to attach the pic obv haha.

 

[TrachyBlue]

BBC blanket ban on any comments about the racism.

This forum isn’t much better, shutting down a thread about racism.
