To be fair it sounds like most of the people who got turned away were fans with the real tickets as fans with fake tickets had got there first and not been picked up. I can see why you'd be upset if you weren't allowed in after paying 2000 euros for a ticket and then got pepper-sprayed to boot!

It's good to see Union of European 'it's not about the' Football Associations blaming Liverpool fans for the chaos outside the stadium. Obviously, letting fans in who had fake, or no tickets had nothing to do with it. And of course, giving Liverpool and AC Milan around 17,000 seats each, in a stadium of 72,000 played no part either. Still, amd sure the 38,000 corporate sponsor really enjoyed watching a game between two teams they support week in week out. Sorry, may be hangover, but UEFA = W******

You pay for tix on the black market, then what do you expect ?


Its not legal to sue tix that have not been sold to you for games like this.


the rushing of the gates is apalling, whatever the alleged circumstances that may/may not provoked it. And uas much As I hate bring this up again, Liverpool are not exactly squeaky clean with regard to rushing the gates at matches/ forged tickets/ leaping the turnstiles.


they never learn.ever.

Many commiserations to the Liverpool fans on this thread. If it's any consolation I thought you played better than 2005. Still, sometimes that's the way the cookie crumbles. Also, if I'd paid good money for tickets for the game, flights and accommodation etc, etc I be absolutely furious if I couldn't get into the ground to see the match. Anyway, do what I do when the Spurs lose, delete it from the memory banks. Better luck next time.

I agree with Jah Lush and I know that I am biased, but imagine paying potentially thousands to travel to Athens to watch your team play in the biggest game of the season. You've got a ticket and as far as you are aware it's genuine and there is no reason in the world why you shouldn't get in to that stadium. You get there and then you're turned away. Can you imagine how that would make you feel?


I also agree that there is a small contingent of fans that do let the side down, however every club has this problem. Because Liverpool have been successful and have played massively publicised games, our fans are highlighted as troublemakers.


How did fans without tickets get in to the stadium? Security should not have allowed it and as for people getting in with fake tickets, you can't blame the fans for that. It should be blamed on the greedy touts and the fact that tickets will always be available from unreliable sources.

so the liverpool fans are innocent and its all the fault of the authorities. unfortunately that wont wash,espicially with the previous that liverpool fans have. its a distinct possibility that the action taken by the authorites prevented a repeat of heysel/hillsborough.

      Thank you, Pugwash. That's really useful information. Do you know who was responsible for the locks and keys, or which council department? Could you PM me if you don't want to put someone's personal details on here?  It may save me having to speak to Monica. Thanks.

      Does anybody know why? Trees aren't cut down for no reason. There must have been something wrong with it (I hope that was the reason). A child was recently killed and another one injured when a tree fell in a park (not in this area). It isn't always obvious from the outside when a tree is diseased or whatever, and I imagine the council would give safety considerations priority when deciding what to do, if there was any doubt at all.

      Yet another burst main... major leak on Lordship Lane nr junction with Barry Rd

      By Sue · Posted

      Different people will be  involved within Thames Water. The people dealing with the leaks aren't the people encouraging less water usage. How many people have reported the Barry Road leak? By what channels? What response have they had? When we had a leak in our road which meant we had no water, several people reported it, there was good communication with TW, they explained why they couldn't come out immediately (other urgent jobs elsewhere in the area) , kept  in touch with us and fixed the leak within a reasonable timescale (hours). Someone from TW also contacted me later to make sure my water was back. But does Thames Water know about it? They aren't psychic (I presume). If nobody reports it, I also presume they won't even know the leaks are  there, unless they have some kind of central monitoring system which tells them when there are leaks in the system. To make it clear, I am not defending Thames Water as a company, which I think should never have been privatised.  But there are some things they can't be blamed for (old and disintegrating water pipe system in London) and some they can (possibly, lack of sufficient staff to deal with leaks, maybe due to trying to save money to give their shareholders more. But this is just surmise on my part - I know nothing about Thames Water).
