People storming the stadium

Recommended Posts

Posted

I Was in the family stand, was about to leave after they passed with the trophy but I had one look down to the concourse and thought better of it. Very dangerous in there with thousands forcing themselves through the gates and up the exits into the seats. Eventually the police came and we could only leave through the turnstiles

To be fair it got iffy outside the stadium a few times. I saw the non local fans rush at the gates a couple of times when security opened them in the first half. Could have been avoided if the match and presentation had been shown on big screens

And that's exactly why it SHOULD have been available on big screens

Wasn't allowed because of the TV rights

It was nasty post game I saw one of the stewards get punched by gate 53 , proper little scum , it was really nasty when we came out , would be enough to put me off going to the victory parade

Posted

this happened in the area where I sit, they were crushing kids on the stairways, 

 

people were climbing over the railing to get up to the stand, i almost got crushed myself, 

 

the words farce doesnt do it justice, i'm really really surprised that no one was hurt,

Away end weren't too bad. Seemed to kick off here and there but heard it was generally when Leicester were being too gobby.

Looked like it kicked off several times in the away end during the match. Not good.

Quite a lot of talk about that on the Everton forum, sounds like there were a good few hundred Leicester fans in the away end some of whom didn't make any effort to hide their affiliation. Understandable that they might have thought Everton fans would let it go, but Everton fans are angry at their manager at the moment, and even when they're in the sporting capital witnessing history, they're still scousers, so they were always going to cause trouble.

I was there and tbh a lot took the piss, in colours, waving flags and goading the Everton fans. Not condoning the behaviour from the Evertonians but what did our fans behaving like that expect? Yes it was always going to be our party but we should have shown them respect until the final whistle

Everybody isn't ok, after the final whistle my 17 year old brother took my two sons to go toilet, he didn't come back so I was thinking what to do tried to call him but due to no phone signal couldn't get through so I decided to stay in my seat thinking that's where he will come to surely, after about 45 minutes being able to get to the exit I found him further along the stadium. They went toilet and the gates were opened as they were coming back to the seats in the concourse basically both my young sons got stampeded to the point my brother dragged them out of the stadium for their safety, the only thing is he couldn't let me know and I didn't want to leave my seat incase he couldn't find me

Family stand ?

Surprised they opened the gates, they didn't in the away end, poor stewards took loads of abuse from the fans about having to go back out through the turnstiles

it really was a farce yesterday when it all happened, the worst part of it all, as point out by my sister(who works in the police) anyone of them people who stormed the ground could have had a device(IED etc,extreme but anything is possible in the day & age),

it really put a massive sourer note to a brilliant day, ruined by a load of free loading bandwagoners

There were a lot of Italians in the family stand corner singing for Claudio an hour after the presentation. I assume many of those trying to get in after the presentation were these guys.

they weren't Italians were I was tbh, the one's I had the pleasure of seeing yesterday actually had manners and respect, the one's near me certainly didnt, they'd have pushed you over to get in, and they did to a few people tbh

That were predominantly Italians who couldn't get a ticket forcing their way into the stadium. They formed a flock on the West side of the Family Stand and called for Claudio. He duly obliged and greeted them quickly.

 

Some others came in through the West stand, took pictures of the ground and the scenery - a few managed to lure Christian Fuchs over the ad boards for a quick group picture.

Some real idiots in the Everton end...Leicester fans openly goading the away fans. No respect and no clue. Lots in Leicester shirts and flags....hence the handbags. What did they expect. I was in there, no colours showing, kept my head down....next to some cracking Evertonians who were genuinely pleased we were there and showing them some respect. We even cheered their goal.

There were no Italians forcing gates near 52-53 they were pure les-tah !

The poor stewards were all over 50 and only about 5 of them , hundreds streaming out of those gates had to funnelled through one exit because of the cretins outside trying to storm the gate , my 9yo was genuinely frightened it was a bit crazy and the police were more interested in protecting the pitch form a non existent pitch invasion than policing the issues outside.
