Sports fans in the UK are professionals. Sports fans in the US would be considered like amateurs to them. We don’t even come close to the level of fandom in the UK. |

Re: Car Ploughs Through Croud of Football Fans in Liverpool City Center
One survivor of the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing was among those injured. Seems to me he tried to pass and the crowd didn't let him so he backed up and hit someone standing behind the car and then people started to pound on his windows so he panicked or got mad and accelerated. At least no one got killed. I wouldn't be opening his door to get revenge without knowing if this guy had some suicide bomb with him or not. |
