    The final was supposed to be in St Petersburg but it got moved when Vlad went on manoeuvres in Ukraine.

    The problem with the Stade de France is its location. On two sides of it there are major roads, so the security fences are only a few yards from the entrances. The bin dippers with tickets could not get in because the ones without tickets trying it on were clogging up the security or trying to climb over the fences.

    Real Madrid fans without tickets either stayed in Spain or went to the fan zone six miles away at Vincennes.

    I was listening to BBC Radio 5 an hour before the game and they spoke to a reporter from ESPN who had taken 45 minutes to get in the ground with a press pass because security were checking tickets, searching bags and confiscating booze. He said that the French had already called up the Gendarmerie Nationale at that point because the bin dippers would not go away.

    Astonishing that Liverpool FC and government ministers are calling on UEFA to find out what happened at the European Cup Final in Paris.

    It is quite simple. Loads of bin dippers showed up with fake tickets or no tickets at all and tried to get in to the game. When they were refused at the security check, some of them tried to climb over the fences. Some people who actually had tickets could not get in because they were stuck behind the idiots. When the French police waded in to disperse the crowd, they did not check who had a ticket and who was a chancer so some people with tickets got treated like scum as well as the actual scum.

    I am pretty sure that UEFA are not responsible for how the French authorities maintain law and order but surely Liverpool FC can be held accountable for the actions of their fans when their manager openly encouraged them to show up even though the club’s ticket allocation had already been sold out. Real Madrid CF had the same ticket allocation and there was no problem with their fans arriving at the game and getting in as the only people arriving at stadium security were ticket holders.

    This is a very rare occasion where I actually agree with something the French did. Perhaps UEFA should just ban Merseysiders from Europe.
