RIP the 96
« on: April 15, 2011, 04:19:03 PM »
I've just remembered that it's the 22nd anniversary of Hillsborough today.

May they rest in peace and may justice eventually prevail.

RIP.

Anyone at Norwich the week after?   That was a strange day - and not just because it was Norwich.

Agreed. RIP Devastating tragedy.

On a related note a freing is telling me that MP's are being petitioned and petitioning for Dalgliesh to be knighted due to his support with regards to 'Justice for the 96'. This baffles me slightly as I think the medical staff or family members deserve it more.

The cynic in me wonders why, if they wanted him knighted, they are doing it now rather than a couple of years ago......ie if he was not the current manager, would they be pusing for it.

Once again I must reiterate. terrible tragedy.

Still sends a chill through me every time I think about it.

It could have been anyone who stood on an away terrace in the 70s and 80s.

Rest In Peace and may you get the justice you deserve.

Until South Yorkshire Police stop covering things up,the 96 will never get justice.If they do get justice it will be far to late for most.It is the British way.

Those of us who were football supporters through the 80s should never forget.  That could, on another day, so easily have been us.

Justice will probably never be done. Not in the sense that we understand.  Some future Home Secretary in 50 years time might make same meaningless pronouncement when everyone directly effected is long since gone. Perhaps it is just enough to hope that whilst shielded before and since by the might of his former employers, David Duckenfield is haunted by his actions every day.

And that the Scouse fatwa against Kelvin McKenzie remains in place. .
