That's the best piece of journalism I've seen on the whole tragedy. Slightly unnerving to see it was written in 1989, but nobody was listening to the football fans. The piece about the police and their approach to football fans is spot on, it's hard to tell younger people brought up on Sky and all seating family stands but there was a distinctive 'us and them' feel between fans and police through the 70's and 80's and still a fair amount of it now. Thanks for the link.

You miss my point I feel.  If someone has deliberately committed a crime then I sincerely hope that justice prevails.  However, let's hope that justice is consistent and that it isn't just attributed to the easy targets. I.e. the police.


Not all that easy I would suggest, 20 + years of struggle by a commited few to unearth the truth

YOU MISS THE POINT SPECTACULARLY.

Replace the word POLICE with football fans or "Animals" as the police called them at the time.

It's what happened twenty odd years ago.(FACT) have you not listened to any of it?
