The 97

Seen some dickhead Leicester fan spouting Hillsborough stuff saying it was 100 per cent Liverpool fans fault. He was then told to read the inquest for the truth.

 

Apparently Liverpool fans bullied and emotionally blackmailed the judicial system to exonerate them. 

 

Even though they couldn't do it for 30 years then sudden they just decided to come up with a load of missing documents to say it wasn't the fans fault. Makes sense. 

Just mention the helicopter tragedy to the daft cunt.

Interestingly, I noticed the 2 comments I mentioned on the Mail's Ian Byrne Hillsborough article have now been removed. Other comments have been printed that arent as inflamatory.

Seems to work like this:

 

You can sing the Sun was right/always the victims for more than a decade and if the scousers complain they have a big victim complex.

 

If any liverpool fans sing anything about Munich, Mathew Harding, Leicesters owners dying or Leeds fans being killed they are hypocritical twats and worse than the people singing about Hillsborough.

 

I've also seen Man City fans taking the moral high ground over Munich chants when their fan base has sung it relentlessly for years. It's largely died out amongst our fans the last 15-20 years.

 

Talksport turned their comments off on Twitter yesterday when they posted a clip of a liverpool fan phoning in about the Hillsborough chants. Wonder why.

A KC’s who represented some of the families has died.  His obituary is very nice.

Hillsborough disaster: Police to respond to Bishop's report

Police will be the first major public body to respond to a five-year-old report on the Hillsborough disaster.

The National Police Chiefs Council and the College of Policing will publish a joint response later on behalf of all police forces in England and Wales.

They are responding to a report published by the former Bishop of Liverpool James Jones in November 2017.

He was asked to review the experiences of the families to ensure their pain and suffering was never repeated.

 

He was commissioned by the then-Home Secretary Theresa May.

Bishop James Jones has criticised the fact that the government is yet to respond to his report.

 

He said: "I think we have to put ourselves in the shoes of the families.

"This year it'll be 34 years since the tragedy and it's over five years since the government had the report.

"For them to wait for so long for a response to these 25 points of learning is intolerable, and adds to their pain.

"I think in some instances it even affects their own grieving."

 

Ninety-seven Liverpool supporters were unlawfully killed as a result of a crush on the terraces at the Hillsborough Stadium at the Sheffield Wednesday ground in April 1989.

One of those who died was 18-year-old James Aspinall.

 

His mother Margaret has campaigned for justice along with other bereaved families.

She said: "I remember writing to someone in government to say 'I hope this report doesn't get put on a shelf gathering dust for years like other things in the past have done'.

"We are now into 2023. How long does it take to read a report to come out with your findings of what you think should happen?"

The response later on Tuesday from the NPCC and College of Policing is understood to include the first ever apology on behalf of all 43 police forces in England and Wales.

 

It will also summarise progress made by the police, to respond to many of the Bishop's recommendations which included a charter for bereaved families, and improvements in the identification of disaster victims.

There are calls for there to be a Hillsborough Law which would help victims of future mass tragedies.

 

A government spokesperson said: "The Hillsborough disaster was a devastating tragedy and we recognise the significant impact it continues to have on those affected, their families and communities.

"Our full response to this report will be published in due course and we will engage with the Hillsborough families prior to publication."

Hillsborough disaster: Families profoundly failed, say police

 

Police forces have apologised for "profound failings" which have "continued to blight" relatives of victims of the Hillsborough disaster.

The National Police Chiefs Council and the College of Policing have published a joint response to a report published in 2017 which consulted the families.

Police chiefs have promised "cultural change" on behalf of all 43 forces.

It is the first response from a major public body to the report, published by former Liverpool Bishop James Jones.

Ninety-seven Liverpool supporters were unlawfully killed as a result of a crush on the terraces at Sheffield Wednesday's Hillsborough stadium in April 1989.

The 117-page report was commissioned by Theresa May when she was home secretary in 2017.

 

Bishop Jones said "a change in attitude" was needed to ensure the "pain and suffering" of the families - who spent decades fighting for justice - was not repeated.

He also called for a charter for bereaved families, the right to publicly-funded legal representation and a "duty of candour" for police officers, amid other recommendations.

In response, Ch Con Andy Marsh, from the College of Policing, said: "For what happened, as a senior policing leader, I profoundly apologise. Policing got it badly wrong."

The National Police Chiefs Council and College of Policing said the code of ethics used by forces will be reviewed, with a duty of candour becoming a key theme.

Is it because they are self serving cunts ?

[Harry's Lad]

97 of our own 'unlawfully killed', our fans falsely blamed, police falsifying statements, our name wrongly dragged through the mud, almost 34 years of it being vilified and we get a mealy mouthed 'apology' with no-one losing their pensions or doing time for this disgusting example of the state closing ranks to the detriment of its people.

 

This is why we boo the national anthem and why we stick two fingers up to the lot of the bastards.

 

Fuck you and shove your fucking 'apology' up your fucking arses.

 

Cunts.

This is the net result of the lies peddled by the government, police and press.

 

No matter how many times we're proven blameless or apologised to the damage is already done and it will always be the same.

 

There's non so blind that will not see and It fucking stinks.

Agreed. 

Those lost at Hillsborough and the families were badly let down by those two.

You would have hoped for better from Howarth with him being a local but no. He was just as despicable as the rest of them.

The truth doesn't matter to them so fuck em
