Watched the thing from start to finish and unfortunately it's accurate. 

I'd love to say it's a group of radicalised Far right thugs, but it wasn't, there wasn't any kicking off until the large group of Muslims arrived. The chants of Allahu Akbar were sickening tbh. 

Knew of 3 arrests before that point, all had been peaceful but had bags checked etc and were rightly arrested. 

Two Asian lads arrested clearly for carrying weapons, one on a bike where the weapon wasnt clear, another rushed around to the Protest with a cricket bat. 

When the large masked group could not get to the protesters (about 50-75) they went around the town centre and tried to get the the group via Bradshawgate (near Nelsons column), hence the scenes there with the police horses bottling them up,at this point a few fireworks were thrown into the group of Protesters. 

I know it's hard for some to swallow, but it would have been peaceful and was with both groups, until a heard of counter protesters arrived in the way they did.. It was clearly organised and they did it to incite violence, When it didn't kick off as they wanted it to, they tried another way..

The protesters by their nature are atagonistic, and shouldn't be there in the first place, 

Why would it be hard for some to swallow ?

Wouldn’t surprise me if Sharon did that. 

Really? You may not agree with why people protest but if it’s peaceful and no laws were broken you’d be happy for fans to be banned for protesting?

Sad to read what’s been happening. Both sides at fault and all those arrested should all face what’s coming to them.

At least we don’t have to face another “I bet we won’t see this reported on BBC” post…

I predict that as soon as it starts pissing it down again - all these 'protests' will die down pretty sharpish.

Seems to have gone quiet with a bit of drizzle, 

unless they all have gone home to get brollies and wellies..

Not for ‘protesting’ but I wouldn’t be surprised if she was up for banning any involved in rioting, violence and racism.

I know. It's almost like tribalistic groups of young men enjoy kicking off with each other. 

Perish the thought! 😁

If you look at the content online, young men on one side, mixed gender on the other. You can decide which is which.

There were woman kicking off? I haven't seen any of those videos. I've seen some with women ballooning but not kicking off. 

The fighting videos (abe to be fair I'm not sure I'd call them that) seem to either be gangs of white lads or gangs or Asian lads running around unopposed and occasionally fighting with the police. But not with each other. 

I'm sure there must be some out there though eh?

People getting upset by Sharon's statement are real snowflakes.

She makes no comment on the issues or take sides 

She says violence is never the solution and as a Community we should stand together. As a Community club there is nothing but good sense in there.

I never said women were ‘kicking off’ 🤷‍♂️ I said women were protesting. On one side. 

The original protest was a mixed gender, peaceful protest. It was then confronted by mainly masked men from who have been widely described as Muslim. These are facts.

Yes, I agree. She never mentioned anything about banning people for protesting though.

Oh right. Fair enough then. I just think there are dickheads on all sides and they're all as bad as each other. 

Fuck them all off as far as I'm concerned.

Liverpool and Everton  fans saying any people caught protesting that support their clubs should be banned. 

 

Scousers are proper shit people aren’t they.

It isn’t for “protesting”, it’s for anyone identified to be “engaging in social disorder”, which I would suggest is an entirely different thing.

As ever, though, I’d be careful of the sources of such things given it has only been posted by a ‘New York-based’ unverified journalist. You’d have fancied the Liverpool Echo would have jumped on it fairly sharpish if there was a grain of truth.
