Liverpool supporters condemn SHOCKING Hillsborough slurs by Taylor Swift fans, as the American superstar ends three-day Anfield stint on her Eras Tour

the reaction from Taylor Swift fans to a taunt following her recent appearance at Anfield on her Eras Tour has caused shock and amazement among Liverpool supporters.

A social media post from X user Mattmatt080 – in which they claimed to be ‘five Swifties down’ and provoked any others who ‘want their jaws testing’ – appeared to be the genesis of the dispute.

The accompanying image showed a palm with what looked to be dried blood on it.

A torrent of abuse from users on the social media platform followed, including several references to the Hillsborough disaster.

One user wrote: ‘Margaret Thatched was right about you “people”,’ before later adding a slew of incendiary comments, including the message ‘so are you savages’ that went with a picture of the fans during the tragedy.

Other chants reference individual tragedies, such as the death of striker Emiliano Salah in a plane crash, or private losses of players, managers or fans – even extending to the death of children such as Sunderland cancer victim Bradley Lowery.

New guidance from the Crown Prosecution Service means chanting about tragedies can be classed as a criminal offence under the Public Order Act 1986, which outlaws behaviour in public that intentionally causes ‘alarm or distress’.
