It was suppose to be one of the highlights of the year. Instead it became a true and very scary nightmare. Bruce Grobbelaar has lived through the bush war in Rhodesia and both the Heysel and Hillsborough tragedy, and going to Stade de France for the Champions League final between Liverpool and Real Madrid reminded him of all of those old traumas. Grobbelaar is furious about what the Liverpool fans had to go through before and after the final in Paris. Him, his wife Janne Hamre Karsen and Ragnhild Lund Ansnes (together with Ragnhild's 16 year old son Elias) ended up in the unorganised trouble of getting in before the match and they also got right in the middle of the danger after the match with mobs storming them, Reds being robbed and tear-gassed as they peacefully tried to walk to the hotel by the stadium. – And it was the police who forced them into the trouble. Here is the truth about what happened to Liverpool fans in Paris. Please help us share this to spread the word and the truth!  And remember to follow/ subscribe our weekly LFC podcast: LFC talk @ hotel tia.
