not long now before the "Justice for the 96" crew turn up to spew forth their rants at the police and the state....
I find it funny (knowing a lot of Scousers) that they're happy to laugh at almost ANY disaster joke, and even come out with some full-on touchy subject jokes like Baby P/Madeline McCann ones, but can't hear anything to do with Hillsborough, as though that's seen as too far
So you were 10ish when the disaster occurred. Hooliganism was not a factor and to suggest otherwise is a slur on Liverpool fans as a whole and the families of the 96 in particular.

but i do not disagree with you, and i am not suggesting anything or trying to slur anyone, i just wanna know why you felt the need to report that post?

Because onenation is perpetuating a lie that is manifestly untrue and deeply offensive to many people, not just Liverpudlians.
"I mean, not a single arrest for a football-related offense, and the terrible problems that we had in Heysel and Hillsborough in the 1980s seem now to be behind us,"
If that's all he said then some people are being over sensitive.

Because the purpose of his post was to cause an inflammatory response, it is known as trolling.

Dear Lord above, do you not like free speech?

Good diversion but totally irrelevant.

What utter b*llocks. If that's the case, we may as well close DS politics.

What a shambles this new Government is turning out to be.

But could the fans not see for themselves that it was too crowded and they ought to think about turning back?
Were they all blind?:rolleyes:
No, they were selfish and impatient
As for this so called gaffe, what a fuss over nothing. The MP said there were "terrible problems" at Hillsborough and he's right, there was.
Oh my giddy aunt. :eek:
This is the same level of ignorance expressed on threads such as the one about Bloody Sunday.
No, the fans could not see what was happening inside the stadium.
No, they were not selfish and impatient, they were herded, by the police, into the stadium; they had no choice.
I find your baseless and uninformed assumptions to be highly offensive and not worthy of the power it takes to light my monitor's screen.
They didn't "enter" the stadium of their free will. They herded by the police.
