MarcusX Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 4 hours ago, Wiltshire robin said: Your situation is completely different as you obviously have ties to Bristol . What all of us that hate Liverpool on here are disliking is the people born and raised in the West Country but support Liverpool instead or as well as city . You never meet anyone born and raised down south who support Grimsby or Carlisle so it’s purely a glory /plastic fan thing to support Liverpool / united . I get you, I know plenty of plastics. Tbh, my connection to Bristol is the club. Never lived there (but would love to) my dad took me as a kid, and his dad took him because we were in division 1 and local. So there was an element of “glory”. They didn’t go to Swindon which was closer. However, you’re right, I’ve adopted that as my identity. I see how some people could be West Country born and feel that affiliation to somewhere else, but I also agree there’s a lot of “plastic”, every clubs got them though. Even us, I know people who never mention City but get to Wembley and out they come (same with Swindon fans this season for the Man City / playoff games) I don’t care about Liverpool fans though, they’re representing England whether they like it or not and I’ll back the English/British in any sport or competition 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s mixed reports on that, some say it’s jumping the gates some say it’s avoiding a crush. There was a fair few empty seats in the ground so could be genuine fans still stuck outside. Forgettinb anything I’ve said about Liverpool fans prior and any bias I think it’s best not to speculate - we should have learnt by now that how’s it’s reported initially may not match reality.

Bedred31 Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 If it’s like the Euro final last summer, there will be thousands- if not tens of thousands- of ticketless fans trying to get in. Presumably the French authorities aren’t coping and the French police, who could start a punch up at a children’s party, will be making things worse.
