It's on LFC tv now, lot's of people would have lost one if not two family members, amazing turnout from the Liverpool public.

To this day not one single Liverpool fan has ever stood up and admitted that they were at Hillsborough that day without a ticket
And yet we know there were hundreds if not thousands
When that happens the whole truth will be known
Yes the police officer in charge made a big mistake , but he was put in that position by a large number of Liverpool fans , it could have been any of a number of other clubs , anybody who went to those type of matches in the 70,s and 80,s knows what used to happen
Unfortunatley the ones that died were the ones that should have been there , hopefully one day just one of the people who know in their hearts the contribution they made to the disaster will hold their hand up and admit it

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

Who? you? back it up! then
At 3.05 when the tragedy was occurring the best estimate of numbers in the end is 9,734 against a capacity of 10,100
Ticketless fans had fcccuk all to do with it you liar.

No without hooliganism the police would not have had a real role to play and may not even have been in the ground. There would have been no fences and if a crush develop it'd be a case of getting over a small wall onto the pitch.
Football and its supporters made the environment, police made the mistakes on the day.

My point is that if the police had done there job right 96 fans would have come home, the year before 1988 same ground same teams different police, in the ground on the terrace there was merseyside police directing fans away from the central pens once full in 1989 this did not happen.
