Who’s claiming to be the No 1 supporter of their team?! That’s a funny comment to throw into the thread Dave!
If you’re trying to make the point of people supporting a team outside of Bristol then I would quite happily bite at that!
p.s. Maddog your new job must of given you a dose of commonsense too! Mostly good and fair points. |

Ships, maybe the new job has given me some common sense.
Do you want a job?!?
I may agree with you that UEFA are wrong, but I still think Liverpool are s**t! |

From the BBC website...
Uefa president Michael Platini has denied that Liverpool fans are the worst-behaved in Europe.
Uefa spokesman William Gaillard made the claim after trouble at the Champions League final, but Platini has now backtracked on those remarks.
"No they are not the worst behaved in Europe," said Platini. "It's official, they are not the worst behaved."
p.s. Maddog... which player will leave the blue and white s**te first, Cahill or Johnson?!

That Tom Hicks is a bit of a wanker!
"Uefa did not handle this right at all. To give 17,000 tickets to the two teams, particularly knowing Liverpool are going to bring 40,000 fans, is insane."
What does he expext? To be given 40,000 just cos fans are going to travel? What if 60,000 were going? should they have got all the tickets? Also Was it not Liverpool FC who gave 6,000 tickets to players, sponsers, corporate etc etc? Surely these should have gone to the real fans?

Maybe they will go to fans in the future, but Hicks has been tied into agreements and contracts made before his time. Hopefully this will change.
I think the point he was getting at, and i think so are many others including myself, and that is why hold it in a mediuam sized ground when there are dozens in europe that can hold so many more???
UEFA try and spread it around so as to be seen as fair and promoting football across Europe, but maybe they should be saying to countries building new grounds for events like the Olympics "Hey, if you ever want us to play there you need it to be at least 80k". |
