Grainne MacNeill writes:

‘On today’s show, Ray spoke to Jason McAteer about his experience at The Champions League Final in Paris for the Liverpool V Real Madrid match with his wife Lucy and his son Harry (22). Jason’s family were subjected to a violent attack.

After the game, it really got serious for Lucy and Harry. They were both on the outer perimeter of the grounds and ‘5 men came from behind Lucy, one of them rips her top open… they grab her arms’… ‘Lucy’s watch had been stolen’. His son Harry was also subjected to an attack from the same 5 men. Jason also added ‘I’ve had friends who were attacked on the metro’.

      Even if the French hate the English.. there is no call for this.. the biggest problem at the rugby final is some Leinster supporter’s, working with some La Rochelle supporters, and security, carrying a very pissed and large man to his seat so when he woke up he’d know where he was..

    St Denis, where the stadium is, is a rough part
    of Paris & has become more dangerous as it became more diverse. Atlético Madrid’s ground is another one to be careful around.
    The French are clearly lying through their teeth about the disastrous security operation they oversaw on Saturday, even the pics I saw showed basic lack of crowd-control knowledge in the set-up, consistently funneling large crowds into constricted spaces, with queues moving at Dublin Airport pace.

      Sure brexit and the frogs
      Says it all
      Echos of Hillsborough
      Strange how only Liverpool fans had fake tickets

    Massive anti scouse conspiracy no doubt. Not just police being heavy handed with everyone

    Whinge, moan, whinge moan. Brits find out they’re not liked in Europe.

    Gwan the Gendarmes – lay into them like you’re Brit police laying into Irish and black people.

    Supporting UK football, jeez….
