Liverpool FC fans have called on World Rugby and the International Olympic Committee to strip the Stade de France of hosting their showpiece events.
LFC fans will appear at the French Senate on Tuesday, June 21 where the "horrendous" scale of the treatment by French authorities will be laid bare. Ted Morris and Joe Blott, the respective chairs of the Liverpool Disabled Supporters Association and the Spirit of Shankly fan group, will tell parliamentarians the "stadium is not suitable to hold those two massive events".
Mr Morris has compiled a record of the "traumatic" experiences endured by disabled fans which include: disabled children being teargassed; a wheelchair user being crowd-surfed to safety over a fence; a blind fan being separated from their carer; a disabled woman suffering a dislocated shoulder; and a “grotesque” attack on a disabled woman as she left the stadium.
