The head of Liverpool's Disabled Supporters' Association spent much of last week asking questions of UEFA's decision to only make a quarter of wheelchair bays at Stade de France available to supporters for Saturday night's Champions League final.
Now Ted Morris is thankful for the "operational issues" and "poor infrastructure" that meant the bays were instead designated to TV crews, including BT Sport, because it spared dozens more vulnerable fans from being subjected to the violence and chaos that affected several thousand outside the stadium before and after the defeat to Real Madrid.
As UEFA face increased pressure to apologise for poor logistical planning that saw innocent supporters attacked and teargassed and the French sports minister reasserts a baseless claim that ticketless Liverpool fans were to blame, Morris has outlined some of what he witnessed to Mirror Football in scenes that he described as the most distressing he has experienced as a football fan.
