Liverpool fans already losing their shit on Twitter...

My Dads coach took a 'few hits' that '69 night going out on the East Lancs Road. Broken paving slabs were involved!
'63 at Hillsborough my 10 year old self and 12 year old girl cousin Marionne("Mazzer") were scared to death all the way from the ground to the coach park. They were swarming all around the buses looking for victims. Hats off to my Dad and friends for getting us all back relatively safely!

I knew about the bottling of our coaches after the 1-0 cup game in 69 but never realised all that crap had happened as early as 63. They must be right in line as the first ever hooligans. How they’ve ever got this reputation as the best fans in the country is beyond me. Coleman used to praise them a lot in the 70’s because the Kop occasionally applauded the visiting goalie. Obviously he didn’t realise what else was going on.

Liverpool being holligan pioneers might be the case for the more modern game but I have read several accounts of the hooligan problem that followed the early League clubs such as Preston and Bolton when fans travelled around by train. 130 years ago.
