Hillsborough Disaster: How it Happened in 1989

- Ninety-six Liverpool football fans lost their lives when they went to watch a game on 15th April 1989.
More than 50,000 people gathered at the Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield, England, for the FA Cup Semi-Final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest.
In order to relieve a bottleneck of Liverpool fans trying to enter the venue before kickoff, police opened an exit gate and people rushed to get inside.
More than 3,000 fans were funneled into a standing-room-only area with a safe capacity of just 1,600. The obvious crush in the stands prompted organisers to stop the game after six minutes.

So people got litterally crushed to death by the crowd, a horrible way to die.

Rohith Padikkal it’s that herd mentality. When something happens, whether bad or good, people follow other’s reactions. And during a time of panic, the only thing they care about is getting out alive (if a parent, they care about themselves and their child). A frightened crowd of people can and will trample anything in their way, as long as it meant getting out alive.
Brutally reminded of this from what happened last night. RIP to all the innocents.

This is not about that concert.
I was at church when I was 7 when a "famous" dancer came to give high fives. Me and this other girl were first to get to the front of the stage to get one. Around 50 other kids came running and trampled us. We were screaming in tears but nobody cared. The teachers had to push the kids off us. I had a lot of bruises and I sprained my wrist but I was more fortunate than the other girl who was rushed to hospital.
But what happened to the other girl?
Edit: I mean,like,what injuries?
@@Anonymouse-nn9td I don’t think he knows
There was an unbelievable tragedy with similar circumstances involving children in England, Sunderland, known as the Victoria Hall disaster
183 children were crushed to death because a door had only been opened slightly around a corner, and free toys had been available so while kids rushed to get them, they were unaware of the ones unable to squeeze through the gap.
It is difficult to comprehend the scene of 183 dead kids all in a small hallway, and even more difficult to grasp how no one could understand the problem unfolding at the time
Dont care
Humans are the craziest animal on earth. And most self-destructive one.
i agree
True
96 people died? 69 😬
Facts!
yappp,,no hard feelings but that is FACT
Basically People were suffocating, crushed, or both. 😔
Thanks for clarification i was confused at first, i never knew overcrowding deaths were a serious thing, i thought it could kill but not to this huge extent
So while people were trying to get out others refused to move because they didn't want to lose their spot. Stupidest accident in history
Oh, I thought the area of that stadium collapsed. tnx
@@PopCapMusicTrending me too! cuz of the thumbnail

My dad was at this game. He went everywhere away with Liverpool in the 80s/90s as a young adult. Beardsley hitting the bar and the crowd all pushed forward. He seen this from above. He said he remembered everyone in a panic. Especially when he started to see coats being placed over the deceased’s faces. He also helped for a good amount of time. Pulling people up onto the second tier with his mate.
The main thing people should know about that day was the Liverpool fans saved so many lives and helped more than the police. Especially with all the lies being told afterwards about the Liverpool fans. My dad also remembered the Sheffield locals being amazing and allowing people to use their house phones to ring beloved family members back home. That was very special from them.
Its a shame he survived
33 years later the police are still lying and covering up what happened on that day the fight for justice continues
@@kurtpunchesthings2411 duckenfield needs to be charged. How can they say it wasn’t accidental deaths but nobody is responsible. That makes no sense. Imagine if someone was found dead. The police said it wasn’t accidental. But nobody would be charged. There would be uproar. Never mind 97 individual people.
No ones fault but the 1000s that turned up without a ticket I’m afraid. The Liverpool fans that did turn up without a ticket should be charged with manslaughter.
@@GrizzlyAdams101 did turn up without a ticket? No mate that happened near enough every cup game. Especially in the 80s. The police opened the gates (that should be only opened after the match) which allowed people with tickets who sat on a different part of the stand, inside. If you watch videos or read documents on it. You will see nobody had even had their ticket checked and ripped. The police was at fault. Even courts have announced it was all on the police.
And today, a 97th fan died from brain damage from this game. Rip 🕊️

my mum was invited by her two friends to watch that game but she decided to stay home and study, both of her best friends were crushed and she had to identify both of them. They are in the top row 4th and 5th girls. She still cries every anniversary....
Bless her heart, what a thing to have to do. But at least you still have her, cherish her always ❤
My dad went to Sheffield University in 1987 (2 years before the disaster) and was lucky enough to go to 2 games at Hillsborough in his time there. He told me that both occasions he went the crowds were massive and there was little breathing space when all fans were in the ground, given that he was 19 at the time and was surrounded mostly by grown adults. He told me that on his way out of the stadium for one of the games, he and his friend walked with such a big packed crowd that he literally got carried through the crowd pressing against him with his feet off the ground all the way. The foreshadowing and demonstrations that Hillsborough was a dangerously compact and oversold stadium at the time was all there. And I’m so glad he didn’t go to that fateful game on 15th April 1989. He had left uni by that point.
Yes I heard that only a few months before that at one match, many fans in the same pen had to be treated in hospital for crush injuries & the police were fully aware of this incident
Same at many grounds in that time. Stop trying to make Hillsborough out to be unique.
My uncle was lucky to survive that, when the crowd started rushing in he was immediately hit to the ground. A lot of people were falling onto his body and crushing him. He got out but someone knee hit his neck and was bruised. He had very trouble breathing and had to stay in the hospital for 11 days. When he got out his vocal cords were hurt very bad that the loudest he could talk was just a faint whisper. He is ok today but i’m trying to say that no mans life equals a sports game, none.
Wow.

I say places should implement big signs that light up “crowd surge, back up” or “warning! crowd surge back up now!” on stages and stadiums. And stop the event. A warning should be said by artists or announcers at the start, that if the crowd surge starts, and not resolved in 30 second (or something) then the event is ended.
Fun fact, they actually tried this during one of the more severe Hajj prayer crushes in the 2000s. The saudis put up huge electronic signs telling the crowd to stop or go to help stagger the flow, but it ended up causing the death of about 400 people because the operators themselves couldn’t see the sign because they were right underneath it, neither could the people right underneath the sign, but people further down saw the green light and went anyway, crushing hundreds. It’s such an interesting issue I can’t seem to figure out. Lol
Also we need to stop holding these performers and athletes like gods.. there should never be an impenetrable barrier in the front of a crowd. If ppl are that crushed, and it usually is the ones at the front and middle who are, they should have room to leave. Get the performers, athletes etc put of too many advance but you're literally putting fans in a cage
Wouldn’t loud warning sounds and announcements help immediately???
And staff at the back of the crowd evacuating them while security helps to pull people out at the front, and release the barricade
@@savannahstine7005 i don't think fun fact and lol should be used when talking about that

I remember going to an event and the crowd was walking toward the exit. It was so crowded and packed that at one point I couldn't control my movements. You had to move with the crowd and there was no way to resist. I can just imagine everyone entering just pushing forward and forward until the people in front started getting crushed.

So sad all those people died due to overcrowding. This is why venues have a capacity limit for a reason, coz if you don't, innocent lives can easily be lost.
This was not because of overcrowding.Read more about the case and you will know the truth.
@@nathanhosea489 yes! they actually had the capacity to fill the whole stadium, but the police chose to just squeeze EVERY fan through ONE GATE.
It partially was and wasn’t. There was room to distribute the people throughout the stadium, but instead the police decided to funnel the 3,000 person crowd through an exit gate into a standing area with a capacity of 1,600. There was room elsewhere, just miscommunication in some parts and ignorant laziness in others, sadly.
Bajan Queen This was not due to venue capacity. Stop trying to be a know it all. Back then Hillsborough could hold a bit more than 29 000. 24 000 showed up.
It wasn't over capacity. The problem was that people were all directed into one narrow area.
Giant masses of people is one of the most horrifying things to exist

I am claustrophobic and I would never have gone in if I saw the crowds, it's hard to watch all the crowds of people being crushed against the fences and people trying to escape. I can just imagine the terror of being suffocated to death, I think I would have a panic attack.
I remember I was trampled on for 10 seconds by my school year in a hallway, and those 10 seconds were terrifying. I'm alright, but I can't even begin to imagine how it must have felt for those people and I can't begin to compare my experience to that of which happened to those poor people. Rest in peace.
Try to travel in Mumbai local trains
I think the fact that you're dying would give anyone a panic attack..

I feel claustrophobic in a bus itself with hardly 40-50 people on board. I wouldn't have made it in this scenario
as a liverpool fan it's hard watching fans lose their lives just to see their favorite players . rip to all of them
The incident at the Astroworld concert by Travis Scott brought me here - what a tragic precedent experience this was 😰
This happens at a lot of places.
I was primary 2 when i was trampled at my primary school when a famous comic artist came to give autographs. I had bruises all over my thighs and calves and I couldn't get up because people are stepping on my legs and it was too crowded. Then a teacher spotted me and I was saved. Thank goodness.

LunaSpirit well said
This should be referenced to the Astroworld case :/
It was very similar crowd rush from behind people up front being crushed
The Astroworld Fest could've been a lot worse which is a scary thought...
People lifting them up to the higher levels to save them, made me cry harder.. it lifted some sadness to see how people came together to help those escape
For those of you wondering what happened, the cause of all those deaths was human crush.
Beginning at densities of about six or seven persons per square meter, individuals are pressed so closely against each other they are unable to move as individuals, and shockwaves can travel through a crowd which, at such densities, behaves somewhat like a fluid. If a single person falls, or other people reach down to help, waves of bodies can be involuntarily precipitated forward into the open space. One such shockwave can create other openings in the crowd nearby, precipitating further crushing. Unable to draw breath, individuals in a crowd can also be crushed while standing.
Your right. You can actually see this in some of the inquest footage. There is a packed crowd and there is a surge in one direction and it affects everyone as if they are water.
Why would anyone be wondering what happened? The video literally explains it in detail ffs

Isn't there maximum opacity rules in case of emergency?
There will be these days but in the 80's fans were treated as the lowest of the low due to hooliganism hence being crowded into 'pens' like animals,fans were treated with utter.contempt back then
Wouldn't suprised me if this was one of if not the reason they were made
Pixel Fyxe for money
The rule is that if for eg. there is a seating capacity of 85000 people in a stadium then max allowed will be 66000 so that in case of emergency the stadium can be evacuated under 5 mins
What? Wembley, for example, holds 90000, so the capacity allowed in is 90000. Evacuation time is factored into the capacity of the ground at design stage.
Hillsborough wasn't over capacity. There were not too many people in the ground. There were just too many people in one section of the ground, as there was no control over how many people went into each section.
Astroworld brought me here
you'll never walk alone. 😢😢
my dad was at this game he was in the forest stand with a friend he's a Liverpool fan but he swapped tickets with a forest fan I hope that forest fan was ok JUSTICE FOR THE 96!!!
What justice do you expect to get? There is no single person or group entirely responsible. Tons of fans poured in who knew they didn't have tickets and over crowded an area that was already packed. Each one of them shares a bit of the blame. This is nothing like a specific action taken by a person with the intent of causing harm, many people made little mistakes that led up to a big tragedy, and many of the fans are included in this.
hzuiel you can blame the security for not securing the place

@@toxic_penguin.twitchtv6944 wtf
@Jay Blake I dont think any of the peddled lies involved the fans who gained admission without tickets.
This honestly shows how pathetic we humans are. Literally can’t contain ourselves over a game😒
I don't know how much, if anything, you know about the Hillsborough Disaster, but you should be aware of the following...
This incident was a failure of crowd control measures by the police that day, rather than the fans misbehaving. There was excitement amongst fans obviously as it was a cup semi final, but no violence whatsoever. "Over exuberance" was not a factor.
The problem was too many fans were trying to gain access to the stadium through a small number of turnstiles, far less than there should have been for the number of fans that day. This caused a crush to develop outside the ground. The Police chief, seeing this crush develop, made the fateful decision to open a perimeter gate, to allow the fans outside to rush into the stadium. The police later tried to claim this gate was "forced open" by fans, but that was a lie. These fans then had nowhere else to go, other than be funnelled into two already overcrowded sections on the Leppings Lane End, which led to people at the front of these sections being crushed against the perimeter fencing around the pitch.
There was plenty of hooliganism in English football in the 80s but that was certainly not the cause of this tragedy. It was a failure of crowd control, caused by the unfortunately regrettable and terrible decisions made by senior police officers at Hillsborough stadium that day. A terrible and avoidable incident.
The incident was exacerbated by the police lying about the decisions they made that day and trying to smear the blame on the fans instead
Fact is, the fans were not to blame at Hillsborough. It was a tragedy waiting to happen in that era in English football. Stadiums were outdated, crowd control tactics were ineffective. Necessary changes came too late.
George Fisher Now you deserve my respect🤝
It wasn't that the crowd were deliberately killing each other or being violent. It was that there were so many allowed in that they were crushed by the sheer number of people. More were then killed by lots of people trying to escape at once, causing mass trampling. In all honestly I can't imagine the fans themselves could've done anything about it, because by the time anyone realised there were too many people it was too late.
@@ant9754, or you know, don't get so close to someone that you're touching. Something so simple...
@@JLviper except for the fact that the people on the outside of the pens couldn't see how close together those on the inside were as they entered. The people on the inside got pressed closer and closer together and tighter and tighter to the barriers as more and more people entered the grounds, but the people coming in from the outside couldn't see the danger being caused. Sure, the people on the outside could see it was a tight crowd, but they couldn't see just how tight it was until it was too late to leave.
When i was a kid i remember in the middle of the packed people inside the bus and trying hard to breath but couldnt so i got off midway of my destination it felt so overwhelming
A West Londoner with Indian heritage, I was born and raised in England. The devastating event unfolded when I was just 10 years old, too young to grasp its magnitude. Unlike many British-born children, I found myself having to pick a side, and without hesitation, I chose the team in red. End of story.
Even at that tender age, I sensed the gravity of the situation. What disturbs me the most about this is how the reality of that fateful day was distorted to the point where the media ended up spreading lies. Though time has passed, the revelation that this tragedy was the biggest cover-up in British Police History shattered my faith in humanity.

Im from London & remember watching it on the TV too. I called my dad to come see as something was wrong, he took one look @ TV & ran out into our street & roared for parents to get the kids away from TV as something bad was happening to the fans. Next thing all us kids were put out onto the street & I remember hearing mums down the street crying inside at the TVs. Then the dads came out & told us sadly there was a crush & people died 💔 Very very sad day. Even though Im Chelsea I will never forget that awful day & the years it took for the Liverpool fans & families to get the truth 💔

The blame does not just sit with the police, the ground was a disaster waiting to happen and in 1981 the same situation happened at the Spurs and Wolves game. The FA should never have used the ground, the police should of had an idea of the amount of fans that would attend the game and the fans didn’t help. Just a view.
@Jax 2TheMaxyou dont know the whole story. The police opened all the gates and let too many fans in. Then when they were getting crushed they just stood there and did nothing. They then used fake stories saying liverpool fans were pickpocketing the dead and finally in 2016 the truth was finally out
@Jax 2TheMax I see where your coming from but the police never should have opened the exit gate. They shouldve left the crowd out as they weren't causing any hooliganism trouble. Also they didnt open the exits when people were being crushed so it is mostly their fault
@Jax 2TheMax there was enough space to move outside the ground but inside they were packed inside pens
The lot of you should keep it hush. Govs own inquest decided police are to blame. Blaming the fans exactly as that dirty rag tried to do
Who’s here after Travis Scott killed 8 people at Astroworld?
watched live on tv and its still send a shiver down my spine im 58 now.
Imagine having to go to the bathroom in that situation crazy
Legotube I don’t know but you would be struggling to even move in that crowd, and after a long time and you use the bathroom, the bathroom will be PACKED
That's why he killed the others 95...
bruh you wouldn't even be thinking about that in this terrifying situation
Just do it there.

*_This is what introverts see when they go to hell_*
To whoever is reading this comment. This is just a joke. My apologies.
I know right lmao, my introverted ass could never deal. The only crowded place I’d willingly attend is a concert of my favorite band
NasrulTube I went to NYC on a busy weekend, liked the food and scenery but I would never do that again just because of how crowded it was
More like claustrophobic people
@Bitch Please its a joke mate
As an introvert myself, I laughed
Who’s here after the Astroworld situation?
I thought that the stadium fell down on the people and they got crushed by it, but actually, people died crushed by the crowd? Damn, thats actually worse than the stadium falling down on your head.
That was the heysel stadium where liverpool fans attacked the Italian fans we all watched it happen on TV it was only the ice cream van outside that didnt get the blame
This and the Sewol ferry accident are two things that break my heart💔
RIP to the combined 300+ people who died in those accidents ❤
omgg the Sewol ferry 😓 i cry every time i see or hear about it
I didnt born yet when this event happened but I watch the sewol ferry accident and cry for them...when the children hit the window to get help from the rescuers..my heart just broke
Don't forget the victims and dont forget the truth. The truth has been proven, it was not the fans fault. YNWA!
United fan here. RIP to all those who died in that horrific event

@paul smith “I could have, I should have, It would have been different if….”
all you are doing is fighting against circumstances that already took place.
The past happened. Good or bad. We react the way that we do. We can’t change that. And focusing on what we should have done, or what should have happened, doesn’t change a thing.
As Eckart Tolle said: “What could be more futile, more insane, than to create inner resistance to what already is?”

Hi Paul, I hope life is treating you well, here's a documentary regarding Hillsborough you may not have caught, it adds a lot more insight into the events and the aftermath of that awful day.

#HillsboroughRippleEffect
Not even a single second of this video tells what happened.
Too many people packed into the central pens of the stadium thus resulting in people being crushed and trampled on etc.
you can't breathe in spaces that are too small they got crushed by other people 😢
I’m a man united fan, this made me cry
respect
How was that possible?
People pushing on each other or being smashed together can cause suffocation and crushed bones. Or trip and fall and get trampled over.
yes, but most died from getting pushed towards the fence in front of them and getting stuck at least 5 min
+Mister Blunt wow you are a piece of shit for saying that lmao

First I’ve heard of this, I thought it was joke at first, wtf you think they could tell it was full, like never heard of this happening in an elevator
saw a lot of comments talking about irresponsibility of the crowd so im gonna paste this comment made by user george fisher
"I don't know how much, if anything, you know about the Hillsborough Disaster, but you should be aware of the following...
This incident was a failure of crowd control measures by the police that day, rather than the fans misbehaving. There was excitement amongst fans obviously as it was a cup semi final, but no violence whatsoever. "Over exuberance" was not a factor.
The problem was too many fans were trying to gain access to the stadium through a small number of turnstiles, far less than there should have been for the number of fans that day. This caused a crush to develop outside the ground. The Police chief, seeing this crush develop, made the fateful decision to open a perimeter gate, to allow the fans outside to rush into the stadium. The police later tried to claim this gate was "forced open" by fans, but that was a lie. These fans then had nowhere else to go, other than be funnelled into two already overcrowded sections on the Leppings Lane End, which led to people at the front of these sections being crushed against the perimeter fencing around the pitch.
There was plenty of hooliganism in English football in the 80s but that was certainly not the cause of this tragedy. It was a failure of crowd control, caused by the unfortunately regrettable and terrible decisions made by senior police officers at Hillsborough stadium that day. A terrible and avoidable incident.
The incident was exacerbated by the police lying about the decisions they made that day and trying to smear the blame on the fans instead
Fact is, the fans were not to blame at Hillsborough. It was a tragedy waiting to happen in that era in English football. Stadiums were outdated, crowd control tactics were ineffective. Necessary changes came too late."
Thank you for commenting this I’m tired of people calling these people who died and injured, and just the crowd in general “stupid”
c7c. Thank you for explaining!!! I did not understand why this bizzare tragedy happened. Truly strange, people were crushed to death!!!
I wish I could "like" your comment a thousand times
Thank you for your comment. It's really helped me to understand.

@@AngieBooStorm It's worth bearing in mind that this was before mobile phones. A lot of the people living near the ground let fans into their homes in order to phone friends/family.
Yet all these fans trying to storm into Wembley without out tickets today learned nothing.
Rip to the Hillsborough victims.
We never learn.
Sure. Justify killing u would killer.
@@Alexander07865 Lay off the crack pipe.
Nope. It was the corrupt police officers fault
@@pp-on6cs IT WAS DRUNKEN LIVERPOOL MORONS STAMPEDING IN WHICH CAUSED IT ALL. THEY WERE HELLBENT ON GETTING IN WITH OR WITHOUT TICKETS. FACE FACTS
People need to learn the ways of ants to avoid crowd crushes.
I learnt about this in college and now it’s like my worse nightmare. Being packed so tightly that you physically don’t have room to breathe. No thank you.
Didn't the stadium also collapse a bit? I don't think I heard correctly
Edit: no
They said people were collapsing
I GOOGLE IT :
The Hillsborough disaster was a human crush at Hillsborough football stadium in Sheffield, England on 15 April 1989, during the 1988-89 FA Cup semi-final game between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest
like, every liverpool fan know this
Congratulations
You learned how to use Google
Any new tricks in the year since?
Switching on a microwave Maybe?
Wait
It was a semi final and it was fa cup I thought it would be champions league final
Well done
yes i like beetroot
Totally hate the sun for taking pics of the people dying right in front of them and did absolutely nothing to help any of these poor people who lost there lives,never bought any newspaper after this sad and sickening event,may they all rip.
My friend lost her dad in this tragic event. We were 8 years old at the time, she’s done so much campaigning, and I’m so proud of her ❤️
That’s brilliant
Thats why never give free tickets.
If thats not free not so many people will come .
what???? the tickets were NEVER free. the Liverpool fans PAID for them. it was entirely the police's fault. all these fans could nicely fit the stadium. instead, the police forced them all through one gate. how about read some more about the case before making a smart remark.
@@wolfey2468 no it was the scouser a fault

The video is done in quite meager way and doesn't explain what really happened at all. Watch something else to understand the situation better, like this short video that explains situation more properly:

@@scarletevans4474 thank you. today is actually the anniversary of it. :(
i barely understood that...my brain just be like “nah, this is too dumb to be real”
Imagine seeing a mass crowd and thinking "yeah I'll go into that". Sport ain't worth dying over people
My uncle died in this terrible disaster he was 14 when it happened 😢 and I was looking for him and then I found him his brother works for Liverpool now
Indians :- "First time in this much crowd???"
But this kind of stampede never happens in Indian matches.
@@kryptomaniac6517 matches? U shud try mumbai local trains🤣
Although it was crowded but come see khumb Mela in india 😁 i have been there
One thing i still don't understand? How did they die ?
@@deepakchopra619 someone will slip and fall down in the crowd and people keep pushing front the back cause them to be run over
@@ajaysharma.1226 i am talking about sports matches though,. Rarely this stuff has happened here.
My friend told me the story of how his grandfather was in Liverpool in 1989, and when it all went downhill, his grandfather and his group of friends tried to leave as fast as the can, it was so scary over there, since people tried to climb out to safety. Good thing they left when they opened the exitdoor.
One of the problems in those days you would simply have a ticket for a certain stand rather than a specific pen. So as behind the goal was considered more desirable you’d never get roughly 25 percent in each of the four pens.
It was a disaster waiting to happen. It shocked everyone but surprised nobody.
Death trap of an away end, Tottenham v Wolves semi final 1981 had people getting on the pitch to avoid the crush, problems at Coventry v Leeds semi final 1987, Leeds fans were packed in like sardines. Accident waiting to happen.
my dad and uncle were there in the crowd alone when they were 14 and 16 and pulled up above to safety. i can tell how much the tragedy still affects him today it’s truly heartbreaking what happened.
Must be a painful experience for sure 😥
my dad told me about going to concerts and stuff ‘back in the day’ and how him and his friends had to stand around their girlfriends as a sort of barrier and block people away so they could breath and have even a foot of room..
Same thing happen in south korea now in 2022 in holloween festival 156 young people died 😭😭😭😭
Justice for the 96 🙏
You'll Never Walk Alone
I’ve had this happen to me at lollapalooza in Chicago in 2016. Everyone was leaving the 21 savage concert. 1000s of people all shoving and punching just trying to get out. Big crowds are very scary. If you lose your footing it can become dangerous
Yea same happened to me in Dubai on New Year’s Eve. everyone was trying to get the Uber and I panicked so much and started crying and I was never one to be scared of crowds until then
I’m glad nothing happened though
Same happened to me New Years Eve in Edinburgh years ago! Got ‘swept along’ and ended up on the floor! Never been to a crowded place since!

You will never be forgotten.
No they won't be forgotten but they will never get justice. It's been 33 years now and who has really been punished for it?
Came here after the tragedy in Itaewon S.Korea.
Same...and that tragedy is going to go down in history as being even worse than this. The death toll is so high now. :(
For New Years my buddies and I went to Tokyo and it was exactly like this, everyone was making contact with each other and it was like a wave of tug of war, there was a lady that was hyperventilating because she was so small and couldn’t get out of the crowd, it was nuts.
Soccer: The only sport where it's more dangerous to be in the stands than on the field on play
Football > Golf

It’s football
It's Soccer in America get over it. Every country has their own language.
Why do Liverpool fans always behave like this? Even today
Great, blame the victims as always. You are the problem
Just passionate for the team like
@@lonruil_aoife6520 Ok, but be passionate at home when you watch it on the Telly. Not try blag your way into stadium
