The reason why simple math blames the French minister for Liverpool fans may not be true

The controversy over the dangerous and violent turmoil in the Champions League final between the Stade de France, Liverpool and Real Madrid on Saturday night continues, with French officials calling out Liverpool supporters.

Reds fans, including women, children, and the elderly, were beaten by French troops during the riots, tear-gassed in an attempt to prevent horrific conflict, and were full-time shelters with a significant number of shelters. Armed local youth.

Advocates gathered enough video evidence of the massacre, claiming they arrived before the match, and the European Governing Council’s first claim that fans caused the dismantling by “late arrival” simply did not agree.

At the end of Saturday night, the French state changed its excuse and chose to accuse tens of thousands of fans “without a ticket” of attending the game and assaulting police officers and commissioners. On Monday, Home Secretary Gerald Darmanin and Sports Minister Amelie Udea Custer reiterated their bizarre claims and took responsibility for the event by listing some pretty incredible numbers. I tried to reduce it.

“Previous leaking from the Stade de France and the French Football Federation has shown that 70% of tickets are counterfeit, which leads to a lot of fraud at the industrial level and in the organization of counterfeit tickets,” Dermanin said.

“After going through the pre-filtering stage, 15% of the tickets were fake and more than 2,600 were invalid tickets even though they passed the first filter.

“The massive presence of these false tickets was a problem that meant delays, as there were 29 arrests at the Stade de France, and more than half of those arrests invaded the Stade de France. He was a UK sympathizer.

Oudéa-Castéra went one step further, saying that he went to the Stade de France “without 40,000 tickets or false tickets” and caused problems.

“It’s important to understand exactly what happened during this massive scam from a ticket sales perspective,” said Udea Caster. “There are witnesses to this, and the number turns out to be 30,000 to 40,000 without tickets or with false tickets. The fake tickets were very similar to regular tickets. Some controls did not know.

“First of all, this British fans rally in Liverpool happened without a ticket or with a fake ticket.”

First let us explain what is the main claim of the French government:

1. Pre-filter checks revealed a large number of fake tickets, accounting for 70% of the total.
2. Up to 40,000 people arrived at the stadium without tickets or counterfeits.
3. Have the witnesses and previous evidence.

Now that the main arguments of the French state have been revealed, we can take them one by one and prove that they are clearly not true and/or physically impossible.

Pre-filter checks revealed a large number of fake tickets, up to 70% of the total.

Now let’s do some calculations first. 70% of all match tickets are fake, meaning 56,000 people have been faked at the Stade de France. The stadium has a capacity of 80,000 and around 136,000 people tried to enter the stadium.

Outside the Stade de France, there simply isn’t enough space for this to be true. The spaces simply do not exist physically. It is not possible to trace 40,000 odea-castera, or a total of 120,000.

The method of moving fans into the stadium was mentioned at a press conference. French authorities said 79,000 people traveled by public transport and 16,000 traveled by bus or private bus. This is a total of 95,000.

How did the remaining 41,000 get there? Everything in the car? It’s not allowed. On the roads of Saint-Denis around the Stade de France, there is no possibility of assembling such a car before this event. This may not be true.

Also, the claim that pre-filtering of tickets was verified is false. For more than an hour before arriving at the stadium, I stood alongside thousands of people under a dim tablet with no bathroom or drinking water available.

A dangerous number of police officers sent him into the underground passage and he swallowed the bottle. The police realized the danger of death, removed the barriers where the entrances were controlled and pushed people towards the gates of the stadium.

This meant that I and thousands of other tickets of mine were not pre-filtered. Therefore, it is impossible to believe the comments of the Minister of the Interior Dermanin.

Up to 40,000 people arrived at the stadium without tickets or counterfeits

An estimated 60,000 Liverpool fans visited Paris as part of the final atmosphere. The club has allocated 19,000 tickets for the match. This means that on weekends alone, around 41,000 specimens traveled and participated in the Cour de Vincennes fan park in the south-eastern part of the city.

Fans without a ticket have the full right to travel to the host city of the match. The city of Paris has chosen to be willing to serve these fans by creating a fan park and is willing to accept the economic benefits of tourism.

Due to the veracity of Sports Minister Ode Castella’s claim, all Liverpool fans who traveled without a valid ticket to France were forged and tried to enter the stadium. This is clearly not true and completely impossible.

If so, why was the Funpark packed with tens of thousands of Liverpool fans watching the game on the big screen the city of Paris has to offer? Where do they come from? Did they magically appear somehow?

Apparently, Udea-Casta simply reduced the number of fans with tickets in Paris to the total number of Liverpool supporters, saying that every one of the remaining 41,000 was a swindler. This statement is clearly incorrect.

Was the previous witness and the evidence

Dalmanin and Udea Caster made a highly controversial statement after a relatively brief meeting with French officials in Paris on Monday afternoon. Representatives from the government, the police, local governments and UEFA attended.

After the game, there was no exhibition of Liverpool Football Club and its fans. They were not asked to donate, and when the club asked for it, the French authorities closed them down.

How could these ministers understand the truth about what happened at the Stade de France without really listening to experienced people there? Why did they jump to dramatic and blunt unpleasant conclusions at such a ridiculous pace without proper transparent investigation?

Darminin and Oudea-Casterra were unable to have the earlier evidence and witnesses because they basically didn’t talk to the witnesses there and didn’t see their evidence.

conclusion

After clearing up all these myths, two high-ranking French government officials will blame the mental and physical damage done to Liverpool football club supporters simply using false numbers and statistics.

So the main question is why these apparently incorrect numbers were published. There were three possibilities, and only Dermanin and Udea Caster knew which one was correct.

They are grossly misinformed, incompetent and unable to work, or not telling the truth.
