    Liverpool fans!

    Isn't it about time Liverpool were brought to task regarding the behaviour of their fans? I'm fed up with hearing about how wonderful they are when in fact they cause trouble wherever they go. After the appalling attack on the Man. City team coach in the last round they were warned regarding their behaviour last night, but no, again we witnessed shocking scenes. Roma fans were also at fault but why is it that Liverpool fans always seem to be involved? Historically we've had Hillsbrough, where in my opinion Liverpool fans without tickets caused a lot of the problems, Heysell, where their fans charged the Juventus fans causing a wall to collapse killing many. The problem is that because of Hillsbrough they are always looked upon as the victims. Don't get me wrong, those that died were victims but the actions of other of their fans were a contributory factor.

    And yet, back in the 60s, Anfield was the only ground I used to feel safe!

    At London, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield etc we had to suffer the same ritual every fortnight......
    85 minutes: Tuck scarf inside your coat; head for Exit; make no eye contact; dash for the coach; when safely on the coach pretend to act threateningly when Home fans "came round".

    In those days Liverpool (& Everton) fans didn't need to prove themselves, and we always felt comfortable going into a Scouse pub for some good craic.

    Things changed in the 70's as any decent trainers or branded tops were robbed from you. I remember many walking back to Lime Street in their bare feet. Young Scousers around the age of ten on every street corner wanting to mind your car for a pound and if you did not pay, you would come back to damage/brick through a window.

    Horrible people - horrible accent and even today, Liverpool and Everton supporters must be the worst dressed supporters in the land with tracky bottoms from the original designs and still have those silly hair cuts!

    I actually wanted Roma to win last night................

    I remember a story that did the rounds some years back, Alan Ball turned up to sign for Everton and was approached by a group of Scousers asking if he wanted them to mind his car, he replied no thanks I've got a Doberman in the back and he can do that, they replied yea but can he put out a fire
