Fan stabbed after Reds v Oldham FA Cup clash
5 Jan 2014 22:43
Police investigating attack near to Flat Iron pub in Anfield
A fan was taken to hospital after being stabbed following this afternoon's FA Cup clash between Liverpool FC and Oldham Athletic.
The man, in his thirties, was attacked close to the ground just after the match, which the Reds won 2-0 at a sold-out Anfield, finished.
Emergency services were called to Breck Road near the Flat Iron pub - regularly used by visiting supporters - at 5.25pm following reports a man had been stabbed.
The victim was taken to the Royal Liverpool Hospital where his condition was described as stable.
The full details of his injuries are unclear at this stage.
Police confirmed a man, believed to be an Oldham fan, had been attacked and have appealed for information about the incident.
Jamie Harrison, 37, a Latics fan from Oldham who travelled to the match, passed the scene just after the incident had happened.
He said: "The atmosphere had been fine all through the match and just outside the ground.
"I was in The Flat Iron pub and came out to see it all happening about 500 yards down the street.
"I saw him getting put into the back of an ambulance with a lot of wadding on his back.
"There was a helicopter overhead and two or three ambulances around with a lot of police in the area.
"I feel really lucky - if I had walked out the pub five minutes earlier I would have walked into the trouble and it looked really nasty."
A spokeswoman from North West Ambulance Service said: "We received a call at 5.25pm that a male in his thirties had been stabbed.
"We were called to Breck Road and the man was taken to the Royal Liverpool Hospital for treatment."
A Merseyside police spokesman said: "An investigation is underway after a man, believed to be an Oldham fan, was assaulted after the Liverpool game this afternoon.
"He is currently in a stable condition in the Royal Liverpool hospital."
Anyone with information can call 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 .

Twitter awash with the all too expected comments on how it couldn't possibly be any of our fans at fault / always the victims / first they brick in the Hull coaches now this, what scum / JFT39 and some Hillsborough references.
Scattered among the people taking the opportunity to score football rivalry points, there's the odd person who actually gives a **** that someone got stabbed.
****ing hate the dark side of football.
Like blood on iron
