This is a very short video I took. This shows entrance Y. 20 mins after the game should have kicked off. Look at all the closed gates. The one on the end has just reopened. Thousands of fans and one tiny gate open. Look how calm the

fans are!

Disgraceful this from
@championsleague
been waiting an hour and a half to get in and no sign of being successful. Gates closed so no way of gaining entry. We’ve just been peppered sprayed yet no sign of crowd disorder where I am. Crowd building up outside. Joke
Morning, thank you so much for all the messages. I’m sorry I can’t reply to them all individually but I’ve read every single one and they mean a lot ❤️. Our last breakfast show this morning so it’s goodbye from me, Leanne and

(who I used to listen to as a teenager 😉) I’ve been working in radio in Liverpool for 25 years so it’s amazing! Just need to update my security ID now 😂
So very sorry to hear about the passing of
@lfc
legend Ian St.John. I had the privilege of working with him for a number of years at Radio City. He was a footballing great but he was also a brilliant broadcaster & a warm, very funny man. RIP Saint x
A huge thank you to everyone at Aintree Hospital. I was in A & E there for a considerable amount of time over the weekend (for a family member) and all the staff were brilliant. So kind, considerate and caring. Also to the paramedics. We really need to value our NHS
@LivHospitals
Devastated to hear about the death of Dianne Oxberry. For so many years, a huge part of the drive show on
@bbcmerseyside
A brilliant broadcaster, warm and friendly, with an infectious personality and a great sense of humour. My thoughts are with her family & friends. RIP Diane x
Absolutely made up to be back at Anfield after 9 months away! I’m very lucky to have got a ticket in the ballot and will do my best to shout, sing and scream (wearing a mask obvs 🙄) for everyone who can’t be here. Up the reds

Twelve years today since we lost the great Phil Easton. What a broadcaster and an all round top bloke. He taught me so much - I still miss him. This photo was taken on one of the best days ever!!
Very sorry to hear about the passing of my old friend Michael Prendergast last night. We travelled all over Europe watching the Reds together. He ran the Railway, Shenanigans & the Lion in town for years. The nicest man you could ever wish to meet. I’m going to miss you Mick YNWA
Happy 70th to

Hi
@PeterMooreLFC
Just wondering if you could spare a few minutes for
@bbcmerseyside
to talk about the CL final ticket allocation, the ballot, season ticket renewal deadline & final screening. I’m sure the local fan base would love to hear from you. Thanks Paul.

Saddened to hear that Wally Scott has died. He was a brilliant broadcaster, producer and friend to Billy and a great help to me when I started at Radio City in the 1990’s. RIP.
Very excited to be starting breakfast on

All the very best to Roger Phillips on his last lunchtime phone in on

Merry Christmas! Gutted to have not been on the radio this week! Tested positive for Covid on Monday but grateful for feeling ok with it. Here’s a snap of our house guest Teddy. Hopefully back on

Sorry, not having it. This “late arrival” spin has to stop. I was stuck outside the stadium while they closed the gates for significant periods of time. Thousands of other reds were exactly the same. The lad next to me got in @ ht despite arriving two and a half hours before KO
"The British people stayed a long time within the fan zone"
France's sports minister blames Liverpool fans' "late arrival" for Champions Leagues final chaos, but admits "difficulties in the way we manage the flows"
Our thoughts today, as always, are with all those affected by the tragedy at Hillsborough and the 97 fans who will never be forgotten.
You’ll Never Walk Alone.
We don’t get many parcels sent up the station, but this one was a huge surprise for
