Good luck Liverpool!

Liverpool fans regularly boo the national anthem, most recently in the FA Cup final.

Hope they get smashed, come on Madrid.

Loads of England fans boo national anthems too. Seems an odd reason to want them to lose.

Bigbopper · Post by **Bigbopper** » Sat May 28, 2022 6:08 pm

I doubt they boo God Save the Queen . Did the scousers boo when they received their furlough payments?

dougcollins · Post by **dougcollins** » Sat May 28, 2022 6:08 pm

Liverpool fans mainly coming over with an air of over-confidence.

I won't be disappointed if they're disappointed.

Why? They have their 'scouse - not english' motto. No other English football club would boo the English national athem at the countries national stadium.

Good luck from me too. But whenever Liverpool have success I feel sorry for true Southampton fans who had so many players taken by Liverpool to make it happen.

Looks like there’s issues with too many fans trying to get in past the checkpoints. It does look worrying on the photos on twitter

Sounds horrendous. Madrid end full. Liverpool end empty. Special rules for English fans. More checks, less entrances by the sounds of it. I really hate this kind of stuff, no justification, other countries fans kick off too, e.g. Rangers’ opponents the other week in the city.

There are some reasons I’m glad to be watching football at a lower level, this is one of them, a better fan experience (Rovers aside).

Fans getting into stadium

There’s something common about champions league finals not being able to get fans into the stadium and certain teams playing….. probably just a coincidence.

UEFA blaming the late arrival of Liverpool fans, who are now climbing fences to get in

Independent journalists reporting online that when they arrived at the ground 2/3 hours ago the queues then were massively long and a bottleneck entrance was being used, fans then becoming desperate to get in or escape the crush, including women and children, then get tear gassed by French police.

There's certainly videos on twitter of Liverpool fans trying to storm the stadium. Presumably without tickets.

Nice to know that we are not the only country that can't organise a football final

Course, the same nationality of fans is the issue again, and clearly not an issue affecting the Spanish fans

Its not Liverpool fans, its English football teams fans in general I feel

Far too many think they can act like they do over here, and its not something that the local police will either accept or be as good at dealing with it

Yes, but what isn’t obvious is why.

Devils_Advocate · Post by **Devils_Advocate** » Sat May 28, 2022 8:19 pm

I've got a mate in the stadium who arrived 3 hours early and took over an hour to get in. Said there's 3 security checkpoint before you even get to where the turnstiles are and said it was ridiculously slow and he's not surprised its become a dangerous bottleneck.

Its not that long ago when our club couldn't even cope with getting a few thousand fans into the longside before kickoff

Sounds like it's a mess due to organisation more than anything else.

So Madrid have no issues getting in, but Liverpool do. So how can it be UEFA's fault and not not Liverpool's?

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sat May 28, 2022 8:20 pm

Scary looking video being shown on American tv coverage. 4 out of 5 gates closed forcing a big crush and fans climbing over the fence

Lancasterclaret · Post by **Lancasterclaret** » Sat May 28, 2022 8:23 pm

Does look like from twitter that the police are being much harsher with the Liverpool fans, and checking much more

Again, its ALL English fans reputation that is not helping here

Liverpool have been in three of the last five finals and this hasn’t happened in the previous two.

Because they enter from different part of the grounds and if you take a simple search online the end where Liverpool fans are entering has been criticised for years by other fans due to the bottleneck nature it causes.

Well you can, but critisising anyone without some semblance of facts is jumping the gun.
