I see Klopp has had another rant again. Does the guy ever get bored of gobbing off every other week 

Not about the goal it seems  but where the press conferences took place !

[UniFox21]

 

Love to see this 

Called passions and "it means more" if it was the other way round 

 

 

[Langston]

Find it genuinely insane how any neutral can possibly like that classless gimp.

Don't worry back in england soon.

[StanSP]

I'm confused about his rant - guessing he'd have still complained had he won, considering the press conference would have been in exactly the same place? 

[cruzFOX]

Lol that was funny. Klopp looks really agitated! He’s almost muppet like his body language. He just wants to go home! 

[filbertway]

Only Brendan is ahead of Klopp in my list of disliked managers.

[Wymsey]

Well done, Brighton.

[Stuntman_Mike]

No surprise at how much trouble there is at Villa Park tonight.

The scenes at our place two years ago have a good indication.

Suprised they weren’t banned after what they did at our place

[Sir Steve Howard]

Whose bright idea was it to reduce their allocation on the night?

Did they expect the Legia fans that got turned away to do fck all about it?

Good to see English police getting walloped again, they deserve everything they get

Don't understand how they can all be so naive. It's not like this is the first time legia fans have been here 

[Fox92]

Absoloute joke it's the same fans causing problems.

Blame lies squarely on Villa/WMP here.

If troublesome fans are coming over don't give them an allocation then halve it on the day of the game.

Tickets to be handed out at the ground as well, you couldn't make up how poorly this was executed.

Great for "scenes nobody wants to see" though.

 

If Legia are that bad don't give them an allocation in the first place, they've done that for plenty of games in Europe this year.

For Lazio Feyenoord they flat out banned any Dutch nationals from even travelling to Italy, which is absolutely draconian but handled better than last night.

[CosbehFox]

Also hard to have sympathy with a set of coppers who constantly bully football fans 

[Tommy Fresh]

Nordsjælland beat Fenerbahçe 6-1 last night in the Conference League, 10 players who've come through their academies played for them. The whole Right to Dream set up doesn't get enough plaudits.

And the "one rule for us, one rule for them".      If any English club's fans behaved like that (again and again), they'd get thrown straight out of the competition.

People keep saying this but its all hearsay, there's no examples to say it would happen.

What a stupid post this is.

 

It was reduced for the exact reasons they were causing trouble. You must not have gone either Legia game when we played them or are just completely oblivious to how dangerous their fans are.

That's not true. 

 

The allocation was agreed at 1,700 in September. 

Then on 2nd November, it was reduced to 890. 

 

There was no allocation reduction on night - merely Legia attempted to do what they did at Alkmaar which was rush the turnstiles and get a gate open to let hundreds more. 

 

However, what bright spark thought of herding them into a coach park was a good idea?

[Sir Steve Howard]

Went home and away to Legia.

Are you aware of how they went about reducing it and why that would inevitably cause trouble?

Read this and educate yourself Komunikat klubu - Legia Warszawa

If you've got fans coming over who cause trouble why would you do everything in your power to piss them off?

Lots of examples where opposition whom played West Ham last season got punishment.

Fair enough if it was 2nd Nov, I need educating.

Point still stands then when you reduce the allocation you can expect trouble.

 

Putting Leicester in Legia's shoes, if we got given an allocation of 2k plenty would have booked flights and hotels (before actually acquiring said ticket).

This then gets reduced to 890 and 1k+ have travel plans but now no ticket. Recipe for booting off
