Liverpool fans at Wembley during FA Cup final
Liverpool supporters also booed the national anthem at the Carabao Cup final at Wembley in February

The booing of the national anthem by the fans before the FA Cup final was not something that I enjoyed.

The fans booed "Abide With Me" and "God Save the Queen" before the game.

The German boss said it was always best to ask why this happened. They would not do it without a reason.

I am not here long enough to understand. I am certain it is historical.

The FA Cup was won by the Reds for the eighth time when they beat the Blues in a penalty shoot-out.

I know a few fans from different clubs see this differently, but the majority of our supporters are wonderful people.

They go through lows and highs together. They wouldn't do it if there wasn't a reason.

The Carabao Cup and FA Cup were won by the Reds.

The Reds will play Real Madrid in the final of the European Championship on May 26 and will then play a game against Saints on Tuesday.

Why do Liverpool fans boo the national anthem?

The booing became front page news and John Gibbons was surprised.

He said it happened at the Carabao Cup final a few months ago and in the FA Cup final in 2012 against the same opposition.

I would like to suggest to anyone buying these headlines that they look into why the fans act this way and why they feel disconnected from the country.

It is something that fans of the club feel strongly about. It is a city that wants to be vocal about how we think this country should be and how we should live in a fair society.

Gibbons said that people who criticized the protest should visit the food banks and see how some people in the city are struggling.
