Granted most of them aren't wearing identifiable clothes that associate them with either side, but if you are insisting that none of them can possibly be Liverpool fans and can only be RM fans then perhaps it's you who needs to have a think about your prejudices.

Virtual reality 712 Posted May 28, 2022 The sad and quite pathetic thing is that there were many on this thread that were absolutely desperate for those delays to be Liverpool fans fault based on a prejudice built up for over 40 years. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But when you have tens of thousands of people encouraged to go to the city and ground, without tickets, it’s not likely to end too well - is it? We’ll see plenty of mitigation but stupidity is well at play. I know three people who have gone. They don't have tickets and won't try and get one. But living in Cornwall, they just want to soak up the atmosphere and meet fellow supporters. A bit expensive if you ask me, Paris is €15 a pint and bars not pubs so it wouldn't appeal to me.

Branston Pickle 3,661 Posted May 28, 2022 (edited) I most certainly want the reds to win - not a fan of this not supporting the English side - and by far the better side so far. Edited May 28, 2022 by Branston Pickle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
