Apparently an Everton fan has been stabbed to death outside the King Harry pub.

It's doing the cyber-rounds but nothing confirmed yet. Let's hope it's not true.

[Witton Warrior]

That's terrible news

I never bought into all the "friendly" stuff but it was a change not to read about a derby that was looked on as a time for a good old punch up

[lovejoy]

I always thought this Everton Liverpool friendly stuff was a myth.

There was an annoucement during the game over the tannoy that ones of the roads had been closed due to an incident not sure if that's the same thing hope not.

I used to spend a fair amount of time in Liverpool, they hate each other. Its just that they hate the mancs more.

ironic in the states how warren barton made a point of telling his american audience that its the only english derby that fans from both sides sit together in harmony!. where's he from?

BBC saying the game passed off peacefully, hopefully its bullshit.

Got this from an Everton forum

The latest news on radio Merseyside is...................

There was a fight in the King Harry pub, the pub was closed, but there were no serious injuries and no arrests.

Whether something has happened after this or like the Gman said, they are holding back info to stop an all out riot, we shall learn later. However, if everytime there was a fight in a city pub they shut the road, the streets would be constantly grid locked.

Lets face it, they are reds............murdering is what they do!

[PeterWithe]

Do you really think thats what I meant?

[lovejoy]

That's what you've written but I'm open minded enough to give you the benefit of the doubt.

[PeterWithe]

If you want to score a cheap pedantic point of the back of someone maybe getting stabbed at a match you fill your boots.

I'm guessing it meant the report of the incident is bullshit.

That said, these things get media blackout to avoid reprisals.  Look how Chris Priest's murder was reported.
