Liverpool CEO Billy Hogan has thanked the club's supporters for providing information of their negative experiences in Paris before the Champions League final. On Wednesday, Reds fans were cleared of any blame for the horrific scenes that happened outside of the Stade de France.
The French government initially blamed Liverpool supporters and fake tickets for the chaotic events surrounding the ground that saw those same supporters tear-gassed and robbed. But after the French Senate's report was published, Reds fans were found to be blameless and that what happened was a result of many organisational failures.
And Hogan said in a message on Liverpoolfc.com after the news of the report broke: "I think it’s probably similar to what I’ve said previously, which is a huge thank you. We know that what happened on the night was extremely traumatising for thousands of people, who were going to a football match for what should have been a great evening and turned into something that was really horrific, before and after the event.
