Liverpool fans are by far the worst on the planet.They steal, kill (remember Heysell)and all the deaths at Hillsborough was caused by rampaging drunk liverpool fans.

Is this the same William Gaillard that said this a couple of days before the CL final "The two groups of supporters have a tradition of good behaviour and at this point we are expecting that to continue." Why has he changed his stance on Liverpool fans now then I wonder? Is it because UEFA know they cocked up big time and they want to cover their own tracks by laying the blame solely at the feet of Liverpool fans? Liverpool worst fans in the world....Utter rubbish Oh and fatdog I suggest you read the Lord justice Taylors report on Hillsborough which is based on fact before you come out with statements like that. The hillsborough disaster had nothing to do with rampaging drunken yobs. Take it from me, I was there. And for the record i'm not a scouser i'm Nottingham forest fan.

A MINORITY of such so-called 'fans' follows every team. Why was there no trouble in Istanbul if Liverpool fans are so bad? Something to do with appropriate facilities, organisation and policing to prevent such 'fans' having an impact? Read this for the other side of the story: <a href="http://www.thisisanfield.com/columnists/2007/06/ uefa-branded-worst-association-by-fans/">uefa-branded -worst-association-by-fans</a>

The evidence is there for all to see Hillsborough, Hysel and now Athens. It used to be Millwall, Cardiff, yes Man United too. But Liverpool fans are quite rightly at the top of the hooligan tree right now!

And what are these 25 incidents ???? are they livepool fans running onto the pitch to assault referees? as the danish did at the weekend ? are they reports of fans throwing coins at the referee as the roma fans did ?? are they reports of racism directed at black players as the spanish did ?? are they reports of violence and mob rule that are present at galatasray and the italian "ultras" ??? - all these incidents brought a deafening silence from Mr Galliard but when the incompetance of UEFA is exposed by the woeful procedures of the Champions League final they are able to produce chapter and verse blaming someone else entirely, something is very rotten in the corridoors of UEFA.

the dossier does not take into acct that only the british ( toi include the scots) have the a culture of travelling to support their team or sportsman abroad... livverpool fans mite be the worst of the brits, i dont know... whenever i went away to CFC away matches ( rotterdam, seville,copenhagen, stockholm,milan,rome , besiktas etc etc...) i didnt see anything untoward..

The writer of this article is a self confessed EPL hating aussie, who in the past has written articles about anything negative about English teams abroad. He is a Milan fan, and eulogizes about anything Italian, and in doing so has completely overlooked the Italian stabbings, murder of policeman, ground closures, corruption, bribery, cheating, manipulation of match officials.Yeah we are the worse fans in Europe, perhaps its because so many follow their teams, and therefore by mathmatics alone, a larger proportion of scumbags will be present. How about praising the English fans for attending matches enforce, instead of sitting at home watching TV!

I don't know about their behavior outside the ground, but they must be the most tone-deaf bunch that ever persisted in mass choral exercises. How about" I'll Never Sing Again"? :-)

how dare people on here refer to hillsborough and heysel...u's no absolutely NOTHING , but i do, believe me !! am i missing some breaking news or something like fans dying in athens or lots of fans getting arrested cause that would be serious but because some fans and yea some not all fans got into the stadium but UEFA have to admit that there were partly responsible for not organising it properly, they always blame the english, liverpool fans are the best for supporting their team in the world, make no doubt about that but yeaa they have silly fans aswell as every club do!! they can't be the worst in the world, unlike italians, roma's fans, the things they do are unbelievable but still they get away with it!! but here we have maybe a bunch of fans fighting , hardly a huge riot that was uncontrollable as we never heard anything till the next day... then when there wer problems thats when the UEFA realised they would blame the english club OFCOURSE!! then english fans thi

continued... then english fans think its funny that liverpool are getting balmed but they do not understand yet they're are just little kiddies!! anyway just wait till next year at the final , if their is an english club they're and something goes wrong then i can assure you that they will blame the english club!! pathetic is what UEFA are!!

And what happened to the United fans? The Italian guys and those polnish fans? Gosh this isn't real. Not even worth doing a resaerch on.

We are all well aware what happened at Heysel and Hillsborough thank you very much, I lost someone very close to me and I do not need some insensitive thugs like you pouring scorn on it and labelling every incident since as the same. Still bitter because you're useless lot got relegated an somehow hold us responsible? You muppet, maybe you should not have fielded a weakened side against United away as Warnock knew it would be a 0 pointer and what about the 'reserve' sides we put out, Arsenal to for that matter, that yielded 4 points for your chokers? Shut your mouth and get back in your box, cannot believe that comment branding us killers and thieves.

Steve Bott, Hillsborough and Heysel happened two decades and more ago, how are they linked? People died in those unfortunate tragedies and it was at a time when hooligansim was a big problem in England. Heysel moreso in this regard, Hillssborough had NOTHING to do with hooligans. You cannot single out Liverpool fans in the Heysel tragedy whilst ignoring the rest of Englanfd when the national side got so much bad press due to it's followers. Unfortunately Liverpool got a bad name for some time due to that incident but then again the likes of United, Chelsea and Arsenal weren't even about when it came to Europe so hard to cause incident when you are not even present. Tell me, if some Germans beat up a Jeish person would you start lumping them in with World War criminals or go further back in time?

Is UEFA,as they constantly allow Italian fans to get away with incidents of such severity, that if an English team did they'd be thrown out.Why is that one wonders?.It's time to start treating them as the corrupt, cheating, underhand scumbags they are and chuck them out once and for all.Milan are european champions, yet were found guilty of corruption, how does that work then?, and what an example to set for the rest of us!. UEFA/FIFA are about as useless as our own FA, toothless moneymaking machines, without principle or honour

Liverpool Fans "Worst In Europe" Shocker Liverpool fans have been branded "the worst in Europe" by our old friends at UEFA, who are above reproach as an organisation, running European football in anything but an autocratic, corrupt, inept and inefficient way. Nothing new there, you might say - it's the same story every time an English side ventures into Europe. Let's face it, we provide excellent training for foreign riot police. What gets me, though, is that as usual Liverpool FC and their supporters are in denial, blaming everyone except themselves for their problems. Predictably they are claiming that what happened in Athens (pissed scousers running amok, robbing other scousers of their tickets, trying to storm the stadium in their hundreds, etc) was all UEFA's fault and that the media are telling terrible porkies. Much as I detest both UEFA and the gutter press I find this a bit fucking rich - we all saw with our own eyes what a hard core of scousers got up to in Athens. They can go on all they like ab

Actually we are not preaching innocence at our actions, the point we are trying to make is that UEFA have clearly responded in an unprofessional and to be honest, childish way to accusations of poor organisation. Liverpool fans made a show of themselves, quite a few of us and I cannot excuse that but as I said before, when you have thousands of people like that all eager to get into European football's biggest game, emotions high and the opportunity arises to get in, legitimate or otherwise? If you tell me that any other group of fans would just stand aside and let the actual ticket holders through then you are a liar and anyone else who claims the same for that matter. UEFA were wrong to make those slanderous comments, they were at fault and as a result we were too. To fabricate some report with 25 noted incidents over the past 4 years as an official statement then backtrack the next day, with Platini contradiciting UEFA and saying it was not official just shows you how wrong they were. We were at fault but

So?

I concur. The vile filth that support Liverpool wrought more damage on the image and well-being of English football than any other club could have.
