Right. Gonna keep this brief and give my thoughts (and expect I’ll get abuse for it but never mind).
I went into the stadium at about 7.30 and the system they had was working, slowly, then a middle aged bloke was starting to kick off because he had his ticket taken off him at the check point For being fake (he was not happy because they would not give it back) he was going into 1 fronting the buzzies and you could see a change with them straight away. In the end they ripped his ticket up (I think that’s what I heard him say) during this time he could be heard shouting off and when other supporters asked if the ticket was from the club he said NO, bought it before the game....for me here starts the tension. I’ve been travelling home and away for too many years but it amazes me why we wait so late too go in a ground knowing the hassle we get!
The police are just waiting for any reason to apply there POWER and yield a Barton or 2. It’s no excuse but they really do love the way they get away with it. So if your going to turn up with 15-20 mins before kick off and expect to walk straight into the stadium you obviously haven’t been to too many away games (in Europe or Priemier league)
It’s always the same late comers in groups, some trying to bunk in, some with fakes, so sensible others bevied up. It always happens and always will.
It’s not an excuse but the club advise us to get in early to avoid any hassle. It’s not just Spanish police, it’s all of them and it’s not right.
To clarify I’m on the side of LFC SUPPORTERS and hope nobody was too seriously injured.
