Remember when UEFA moved the Champions League final from a Wednesday night to Saturday so kids could go and then loads of kids went and they tear gassed them all

Me on last Saturday and more besides.
"Uefa, the police, French ministers... all peddled gross lies. Only fans prevented disaster" theguardian.com/commentisfre… this is excellent, and must read, from @Knox_Harrington

I'm calling for a thorough and detailed Police investigation into the 37b + spending on the failed test/track/trace scheme. Please consider retweeting if you agree.

Earlier today @Knox_Harrington was on @SkySportsNews to react to the lies told by Darmanin and Oudea-Castera about LFC supporters at the 2022 UCL Final.

Liars @GDarmanin @AOC1978 @UEFA video evidence proves how corrupt you all are. Margaret Thatcher & Norman Bettison all over again.

Letter to Liverpool supporters @spiritofshankly :
Thanks and see you soon in Paris.

The claims Gérald Darmanin and Amélie Oudéa-Castéra have made about Liverpool fans are utterly untrue. The numbers are physically impossible and I have debunked them here.
They have three key claims which are demonstrably false.
Please read and share.

I notice that the narrative is moving to put part of the blame for what happened on Saturday on the immigrant communities that live around the stadium. Let's get this clear. It was a failure of policing and organisation. Don't be distracted by the racist undertones

Liverpool FC - LFC asks fans to share Champions League final experiences liverpoolfc.com/news/lfc-ask…

@ChampionsLeague My experience at Stade de France on Saturday was the 2nd worst I’ve had at a football match, after Hillsborough. It’s difficult to convey the disdain of French police for the welfare of supporters outside the stadium - LFC fans, Madrid fans and neutrals 1/...

🗣 "First of all they tried to blame Liverpool supporters, and now they're trying to blame fake tickets."
Kaveh Solhekol questions the French Minister's response to the chaos at the Champions League final.

Gerald Darmanin is the fraud. The lies & spin from people in authority is a disgrace. @UEFA @AOC1978
French interior minister Gerald Darmanin says there was "massive fraud at an industrial level" at the Champions League final in Paris, with 70% of tickets coming into the Stade de France thought to be fake.

Posting some clips from the BBC this morning for those interested.
"Fans arrived early and they were treated like animals. This was an immense failure of safety management and crowd control. The French state completely failed in its duty of care to anyone who enters is country."
Joseph Fitzpatrick retweeted
They were the complete opposite. This is a lie.
“That so many immediately fall into line with the authorities’ lies on the juvenile and outright pathetic basis of tribal football rivalry is why police forces and governments are able to demean, disrespect, and harm football supporters with such regularity”
Have written about the chaos at the Stade de France.
This a chronology of what happened, but also a look at the politics of policing in France, as well as pathetic football tribalism and the need for UEFA and the French authorities to be held to account.

Let this be said now with absolutely clarity: there is no blame to be put on fans here, none whatsoever. French police have used pepper spray for no reason - and I know this because I’ve felt the effects with some colleagues. How these people are being treated is a disgrace
Joseph Fitzpatrick retweeted
We’ve all been here for hours. Every mistake that they could’ve made in stadium access operations has been made… I was in the thick of it a solid two hours before kick off, and security checkpoints in all of the wrong places, creating massive choke points – at Saint-Denis, France

Finding it impossible to get in the ground. This appears to be very dangerous. Absolute carnage.
