Both 19yrs old, the other details are so sparse though that it could literally be anyone!


Well they now say it’s a premier league club which both players play for.

 

One is arrested on suspicion of assault and aiding and abetting a rape. The other for the rape itself.

 

Grim.

Man Utd have three 19 year olds who have appeared this season.

Anyone catch the documentry on Chelsea after their match yesterday? I wasn't fully paying attention until they started discussing Ken Bates idea to install electrified fencing at Stamford Bridge to ward off pitch invaders. [emoji38] I mean, the fences do a pretty fair job of looking fucking terrifying without.

I'm old enough to remember that being talked about. ??? I also remember the day the fences came down  - we played Luton at home, the week after Hillsborough happened. First time I'd seen a game, without wire mesh being in the way.

Two of them played on Sunday like, so you would think if it were them they’d have left them out given the circumstances.

 

Mind you their track record in dealing with this kind of thing is….

twitter seems convinced its either Man U or Liverpool

 

 

 

 

Reddit says a different club, but this is the problem with releasing the details they have. Enough to spark a frenzy.

 

Ironically, I suspect the one thing we could have a fair discussion on is who we'd want it to be :lol:. Any actual speculation is unfair to everyone.

That Tory cunt MP who was chairman at Luton was desperate to turn his on.  Those things killed 97 people at Hillsborough - scary to imagine how that day could have been worse, but I reckon electrified fences would be one way it could have been.

I named all of them apart from the blonde. After zooming in, I got the answer. Really can't remember him with that hairstyle but pretty sure it was during his prime.

 

Who is it between him and Seedorf?

The Italian defence of Zambrotta -Cannavaro-Nesta-Maldini is an incredible lineup with Buffon behind them.

 

Serie A was a great league in the 90s and 2000s

Were those fences (minus the electrfied wire) common in football grounds in the 80's? It was a bit before my time. Find it impossible to believe nobody foresaw how fucking dangerous they would be.


The only surprising thing about Hillsborough was that it took so long to happen. 
 

Anyone who went to matches in the 80s and stood will tell you about situations where they were basically in a cage with far too many people in it, unable to feel the floor and unable to move anywhere. 
 

I remember a match at Upton Park in which we were crammed into way too small a space and I genuinely thought someone would die. It was that bad. I saw it on YouTube a while back and I felt sick watching it. 
 

Chelsea’s chairman back then wanted to put electric fences up. Google Stamford Bridge in the 80s and a photo of that place alone will tell you all you need to know about how football fans were treated. 
 

Although ironically I just read that the pricing for our home match against Chelsea this weekend had the cheapest adult seats at £58.50 - for a match played at eight o’ fucking clock on a Saturday night, so although we’re not treated like animals who risk our lives going to games any more, they’ve introduced a different kind of contempt - economic - instead.
