I think Mozz meant 'French Police officers' I was just picking him up on it. I do think they were out of order though have to agree and as a Man Utd supporter that is something to be said.

I don't need to read the appeasers BS, the cause is clear to any right thinker.

That explains why you seem to be so confused by it then Tora.

Did the real madrid fans have any trouble getting into the ground?
i have not seen or heard on any of the news channels,or read any
newspapers how their fans managed to get in without any trouble.

Perhaps the words of former Conservative leader now Lord Howard as interviewed on Radio4 would be accepted by Tora as the true picture.

He was at the match with his wife and laid the blame for most of the upset at the feet of the French.

Somehow i have my doubts though and his charmed existence will no doubt continue as the site dissolves before our very eyes.

Still not sure why fans had or UEFA feel the need to issue physical, paper tickets?
The last few Six Nations games I’ve attended we all had e-tickets that could only be accessed via an app, which surely nullifies the chances of forged tickets?
That said, you’d never see this sort of behaviour at a rugby match nor the mindset that the Police must have every time an English team is playing at such an event?

Douglas, I think Tora has made up his mind and no amount of testimony from those actually at the match will change that.

He seems to prefer the version of events the French authorities are reporting over the English. Seems a little "anti-British" it you ask me.
