Seriously, that was one of the damn finest Liverpool wins I've ever seen.
Going to neck some serious squirt tonight!

Not good, we don't want to raise the ire of the FA with poor fan behaviour.
Flares are stupid and dangerous, go watch the vision of the Bradford Stadium fire sometime and see just how quickly things can escalate from a misplaced spark.
man if no one was hurt here...

Yes and 56 people DIED here:
265 more were injured. All due to one misplaced match.
The people in your above video were lucky, it only takes one misplaced flare for things to go very, very badly.
Flares burn upwards at 200 degrees centigrade and can get up to 3000, they are meant to be used in open spaces and not packed stadiums full of people. They are a throwback to the hooligan era we've tried to move on from after our reputations were forever tarnished at Heysel.
That is disastrous. I don't like flares but I never knew they were that dangerous.
It's the clear approach of FSG/Rodgers and now we have Klopp who can bring in the top talent more easily. Hopefully the fan base gets behind them as a whole after a few more wins over Man U (and some top 4 pressure). As with most young teams there is inconsistency, but the reaction to the Carling Cup Final loss shows that we probably do have winners. Fun times ahead...Can - 21
Lovren - 26
Clyne - 24
Sakho - 25
Henderson - 24
Coutinho - 22
Firmino - 23
ever Sturridge is only 25 and Lallana is only 27
It is all about how Klopp fills the missing pieces. A nice base is building and hopefully it is more about filling holes now than wholesale change
Old wooden stands with rubbish built-up underneath them were a major, major problem. You don't have that at current stadiums and the smoke flare dangers seem over-stated. I'd be annoyed if I couldn't see the match due to them, though, so it'd be hypocritical to say they shouldn't be stamped out.That is disastrous. I don't like flares but I never knew they were that dangerous.

Yep, that was very sad and just a horrible circumstance for all involved... However, can I point out that the Bradford Fire involved wooden stands, which caught fire.
Toumba Stadium is not wooden. It's not exactly easy for this concrete jungle to catch fire, right? The 265 people at Bradford would have been injured because of the fire of the stand, not the match.. or in PAOK's case, the flare.

Read my edit.Did read up on the video above, at the end the considerate fans tossed the flares onto the pitch and set fire to one of the dug outs causing the match to be delayed by about 40 mins.
Is that really behaviour we want to be encouraging?
