"Totally unacceptable from an institution that prides itself on being more than a club"
Liverpool fans have voiced their criticism of Barcelona's allocation of disabled seating for the away leg of their Champions League semi-final at the Camp Nou after it emerged there would only be five spaces available.
The total allocation for Liverpool fans is 4,620, but with just five of those spaces for disabled fans and their carers, Reds fans are understandably annoyed.
One fan, Dan Wakefield, labelled it "totally unacceptable from an institution that prides itself on being more than a club", alluding to Barcelona's "Més que un club" slogan.

Supporters' group Spirit of Shankly also supported calls for UEFA and Liverpool to contest the allocation.
Liverpool FC have made 12 pairs of tickets available for Barcelona fans visiting Anfield in the return leg on May 7.
The Liverpool Echo are reporting that after this reaction, the two clubs are in talks to increase the disabled allocation in Barcelona.
