The kid who said it wasn't them

With the days that pass since the heated cup tie at The New Den. I have found the behaviour of Millwall fans and club officials to be pitiful.

I'm pretty certain that thousands of Liverpool fans are not having their ears playing tricks on them, I certainly think not. I was there and I know that I heard things that I wish I hadn't.

If you don't believe me, then ask Phil Neal. Donning the headphones for a radio commentary, he stayed silent for 20 minutes. Afterwards he said he was "rather subdued". Can't imagine why Phil, who does charity work for the Hillsborugh families group in his spare time, would feel that way.

Then there was the 1000 fans (if not more) who were believed to have chanted these words of unintelligent, pathetic dross. It's pretty clear that when 1000 people say the same thing together in unison, then your likely hear their voices.

But who am I to tell the FA this when it is surely ON TAPE!!
