Car crashes into celebrating Liverpool fans.

[Swanjaxs]

You both know that my problem isn't with the fact that it isn't directly about the Swans - it's the fact this is the nth post this week that is completely baiting some sort of weird political argument that some people on here are desperate to have.

I've no problem with politics being in football (not that this is specifically political), but you can't honestly tell me the quoted message below is even close to being relevant to a football board

Stop chatting shit ffs, hopefully no fatalities and may the injured recover quickly.

The good news so far is that as far as I can tell no fatalities have been reported.

Hopefully that remains the case and I hope that the explanation for what happened is as innocent as someone having a heart attack or seizure or something behind the wheel rather than a deliberate attack by somebody on the crowd.

Critical incident declared in all Liverpool hospitals

Cunts come in all colours and religions, some cunts aren't even religious. I'm disliking more and more humans by the day. Perhaps I'm a cunt also...

Yes yer right...
And no, yer not.

 

[Ringwood]

Deliberate act of criminality and another attack on the people of Liverpool.

 

[Cooperman]

Terrible, terrible scenes. There will be several possible explanations for this but casting assumptions at this stage adds no value. Let the police investigation do its work and then go from there. Above all else, everyone should be hoping for the avoidance of fatalities and life changing injuries. Best wishes to all those in hospital.

The Mutton Brigade are already blaming Starmer FFS. Let the people do their jobs and hopefully no one will have serious injuries

It would seem he was under the influence of drugs and tailgated an ambulance onto a closed road (Dale Street and on to Water Street). Whilst there is footage circulating of the car being attacked prior to ramming people it would be better not to speculate what prompted this act. I'm just relieved friends and former colleagues, several with their kids, who went to the parade are all fine and that all injured are recovering.

Indefensible at the best of times, but while sometimes people like this get a slap on the wrist if the stories are accurate then I cannot see any way that people won't make an example of him in the courts. They will in no way want to be seen as weak with people who drive under influence when it caused such a very public incident

Knowing the state on the country he’ll probably be given a 15 year jail sentence and a 10 year driving ban to run concurrently.

Obviously he hasn't been charged yet but it says a lot that he was arrested under suspicion of attempted murder and on top of DUI. As you said if he is tried for that especially 50+ counts of it I wouldn't be surprised to see a 15 year or even more jail term

Seen the uncut footage. Clearly not 53 and not white. Draw your own conclusions.

Well I’ve seen the same videos and it’s not clear to me.

Then we've seen different clips my friend.

I don’t think we have and you can’t see anything to make a judgement either way in them.
