If the police decide to start searching some 10,000 to 20,000 supporters of any club, are hugely understaffed, funneling them through a 6ft wide gap and then close 4 out of 5 gates because locals are causing problems (well reported), it’s obvious there’s going to be a massive issue. Most those fans it affected arrived 45-60mins before kick off (you can ascertain that from when the reports of problems were first reported). And yet…some people can’t be bothered with the facts and just use it as an opportunity to blame Liverpool fans. I don’t particularly like them myself after having a few bad encounters, but anyone can see where the problem originated last night.
