Liverpool Football Club and Grand National clash

[Huyton Layne]

Seems they’ve been allowed on the same day.
Surely the police and transport can’t handle all those visitors at once.
70,000 go to Aintree, from all over the country and about 50,000 people travel to the city to watch Liverpool at every home game.

Police have said they are sound with it.

Surprised me though. Its not just the volume of folk, its the possible security stuff that I would thought would make them, the police, less keen on both at essentially the same time.

 

[Toast]

Footy and Horses.

Boss day out that like.

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

I think I'll just about manage to deal with both events in my usual way

They're from all over the country as well of course.

I agree with fat Joe, it is madness.
The Grand National is sacred and arrives but once a year, let the offended move their game.

 

[Connor]

Shouldn't be on the same day, even with staggered start times.

I look forward to the eventual complaints even though they've all said they can handle it.

there will be more creatures in the stands at anfield than there will be jumping over beachers brook

 

[LEONARD]

I think the following nags are worth a bet on the day.

MILNERPEN.

TOFFEESBOOED.

KLOPPHAPPY.

2 SAM'S DITCHED.

They always used to have the games on the same day with a morning kick off, anyway anything that winds the RS up is ok by me.
I bet Mayor Joe whilst speaking up against their kick off on the same day is secretly p*ssing himself laughing and so he should be.

Why cant the racists play the home game on the Friday? I fully understand not playing on the Sunday because of the Hillsborough clash

Who gives a flying, watch the national on telly and hope for a win at An field by whoever they are playing.

 

[Connor]

I will of course be taking the Bournemouth/PHIL’S MAGIC win double for maximum fume.
