Blues blamed for City bus damage

[magicjuan]

Would have loved a City player to exit the bus with their head gushing with blood. Maybe something may have been done about it then.

“Obvious” to whom?

Certainly not to a national newspaper which was gullible enough to take what the bugger said at face value and go to press with it.

That is on the paper being stupid.

Which is not really surprising these days.

Can be a joke but at the end of the day we get negative headlines and people start to put us in with that lot.

That’s a very fair point.

I also question the decision to publish coach routes.

It's always the same when aggressors are appeased. Historically we know what it leads to. There'll be blood on UEFAs hands too if they don't stop this lot in their tracks. Sure as eggs is eggs they'll do something to cause serious injury or much worse. They have that mentality that they are more of a Turkish "ultra" type support and are out there in terms of how much they will demonstrate their loyalty to their team. They are followed now by a different generation to the one that learned lessons after Heysel. They aren't deterred by that history and possibly are even spurred on by that reputation they gained.

I'll say this becuse it's true: they have a lot of fans attached to that club who are paramilitary. If the authorities don't wake up to this and act they WILL cause another outrage. Not IF but WILL.

I remember years ago Thompson got stuck at the lights outside the Oak after one of our games. He got dogs abuse and the little rat bottled and shouted "I'm a Blue" out of the window.

Someone then threw a bottle at his car. I can assure you the little weasel was crapping himself and not laughing about it.

Give scourers a bad name all round the world those scruffy little bellends, you can almost guarantee that they will do something shameful and embarrassing, but the press never hold them accountable, only them and the press helping them could turn saying the word 'Heysel' into a taboo subject

I wouldn't be surprised if the papers are scared to say anything too negative in case it's seen as a slur on the city and so lose readership.

One paper wouldn't hesitate and would give them their get out of jail card as a new fatwa is issued

You can guarantee the Manchester police force will act like a proper police force for the return leg not like the unprofessional chancers that were ‘policing’ the game. They’ve caused this mess as you can’t change the nature of the beast that is bellend Liverpool fans, you need to prevent them from doing the stupidity they’re capable of but the police instead facilitated it.

There’ll be a cycle of violence now because of this but the fans, the club, and the police are all complicit in lighting this spark. They are literally dragging English football back into the bad old days, it is club sponsored hooliganism.

That Thompson tweet deliberately puts a slur on Evertonians, how dare he tell lies about a clubs supporters. It is not enough to apologise he should be sacked.

 

[riddick]

They boo a keeper for having the audacity to get kicked in the face standing straight up, they boo the black man who was a victim of racism by one of their own, they cheer the racist whenever he gets mentioned, they refuse to acknowledge their part in the deaths of 39 people, they sing songs about a plane crash killing a "rival" teams players.


Nope, nothing pervasive in that club at all, it's "a few select whoppers".
