LOL you revived this thread to offer that "biting" commentary?

 

What a dreary little tit you are. Could you be any more obsessed?

 

Truth hurts doesn't it ?

 

'Revived this thread ?' this thread has been active since last week , nothing to do with me reviving it.

 

Obsessed , perhaps you should explain that to the JFT96 campaign.

 

Like I said , you and your type of Liverpool supporter are nothing more than retards.

 

So if Michael Shields didn't do it , when is Graham Sankey going to be bought to justice ? Or does Jack Straw's pardon not carry any weight in Bulgaria ?

 

Justice For Bulgarian Waiter Campaign

I am not a Liverpool supporter, but the idea of clinging to the right wing Torygraph's version opf events from 4 years ago is ridiculous. The Independent I would suggest is more reliable.

 

The Justice Secretary knew Mr Sankey had confessed to the attack on the second day of Mr Shields's trial in Bulgaria in 2005. But the court had refused to accept the confession as evidence. Mr Sankey's solicitor later claimed his client had been referring to a different fight and the confession was withdrawn. But the Shields family had visited Mr Sankey at his Liverpool home where he admitted committing the crime. The 22-year-old electrician was jailed for five months in 2008 for racially abusing a Liverpool doorman.

 

On 29 May 2005, five days after Liverpool's European triumph, the contingent of fans was back in Varna, partying all night at the Bonkers bar and sleeping by day. On that penultimate evening of his trip, his suitcase already packed, Mr Shields had gone to bed earlier than other fans and was spotted by the porter at the Hotel Kristal returning to his room at 2am. Crucially he had been wearing a cream T-shirt. At 5am trouble flared between a group of Britons and some local men. Mr Georgiev stepped in to stop the trouble but was punched to the ground by a man witnesses said was dressed in a white T-shirt. As he lay on the floor the rock was dropped on his head, fracturing his skull.

 

Police arrested three men, including Mr Sankey, the following morning. Officers took Mr Shields away to a local police station where he was chained to a radiator for 16 hours in sight of witnesses. He was asked to don a white T-shirt and take part in an identity parade with a group of three dark-skinned Bulgarian men all of whom were wearing jumpers. That identification was to form the basis of his conviction for attempted murder.

So if Shields is innocent , will Sankey get punished ? Still either way its Liverpool fans , isn't it ?

You really think the Bulgarian cops will admit they set someone up to get a quick result?

 

Liverpool has little to do with it because none of the success-driven clubs' fans are any different.

What you should have said was 'Still, either way, its football fans, isn't it?'

No it isn't football fans , its a minority , but it seems one group of supporters go further than the others.

 

And would you call Millwall, Cardiff , Leeds , Luton 'success-driven fans'.

 

Other sports also suffer with crowd trouble.The Castleford Tigers have just been fined for trouble in their game against Catalan Dragons earlier this year.

 

There was crowd violence during Amir Khan's fight with Martin Kristjansen in 2008

 

Football is the most high profile sport in the world and thats why trouble gets reported.
