25 years ago today

[Coro]

96 men, women and children went to a football match and never came home.

 

My thoughts and love are with all those affected by the tragic events of that day.

I'm physically upset reading the articles and reports this morning. It's nothing new of course but it just gets harder as you get older.

 

JFT96. Rest in Peace.

Never forgotten, the families that have had to endure 25 years of hell yet have still maintained dignity and never gave up should inspire everyone.

The thing that struck me is that the youngest victim would be my age now, if he hadn't passed. 35.

 

The deaths of the 96 are sad enough in themselves. But all those lost opportunities compound the sadness. Young people, kids in some cases, who had opportunity tore away from them just like that. Their whole lives in front of them. Kids that could have been taking their own kids to the match now if this tragic event didn't happen.

 

Rest in peace. Never forgotten.

The match was being shown live on Irish tv and was sat at home with my dad and uncle watching the horror unfold in front of of us.  

 

R.I.P .  

 

Justice.

25 years ago today a chain of events saw the police, the establishment and certain parts of the media tried to mask the truth and sweep it under the carpet.  They failed.  I've never been as proud of this city as I have been in the past quarter of a century.  We've always known the truth and slowly but surely the lies are being eradicated.  There are 96 reasons why the fight goes on, 96 families that need their prayers answered and their loved ones rightfully viewed as innocent, not guilty.  

 

As a city, Liverpool I salute you.  As human beings, the families I admire you.  As for fighting for the truth, I am proud of you.

 

Justice for the 96 will not bring them back, but it will show the world what we knew all along.

 

I hope the bastards who are responsible live an empty existence behind those bars.

[Faustus]

They will never be forgotten.

I still can't completely read the list of names, 96 people who left their homes as excited as we all where on Sunday but didn't come home. It's just not right. YNWA JFT96.

I wanted to post about this on the LFC feelings thread, but it didn’t feel appropriate and now you have given me the opening. I try not to feel ‘pride’ in the club. I’m not from Liverpool which means that, in a different time and a different place, I might not have been a Red. I remember last summer though, standing down in front of the Liver Building on a beautiful day with my heavily pregnant Scouse wife. The night before there had been a piece on Newsnight from Peter Marshall – like me, an out-of-towner – about Hillsborough, where he took another brick out of the wall of lies that has been built up over the last quarter-century. Standing in that iconic place, I felt such a burst of pride to be associated with the city that has given me so much and its people who refused to be cowed in their struggle to smash that wall to smithereens. At best, they were told it was pointless, to the extent that even high-profile members of the party of Keir Hardie were willing to wave away their objections and side with the establishment. At worst, they were told they were wrong, that were all a bunch of drunks and thieves and that the lie was the truth. It would have broken a lesser people. The fact that it didn’t speaks volumes.

List of the people who died and a bit about each person. One fella was a Tottenham fan who only went because his two Liverpool supporting friends needed a lift.

 

People of all ages and backgrounds, not the typical pissed up scouse Scallies who the media and police tried to portray them as.

[gingerhulk]

How can 96 people die at a public even, 25 years ago, and not one person is held responsible?

 

Justice is coming.
