I am actually disgusted with comments made to a comment by a Paul Geffin by a certain Johnny Red. I am a big fan of the reds, and am from Liverpool.

What happened in Heysel may have been a disgrace and something we do not celebrate, but at the same time, Liverpool fans are still responsible for the death of 39 Juventus fans.

The fact that that he has the cheek to actually say that it is untactful for us to mention the death of these fans disgraces me. I was at Heysel for this match, and what i saw was so called Liverpool fans rampaging in the ground and making a mock of what the club stands for. Additionally, people say it was fans/hooligans from alot of clubs in England, but before kick off I was in bar full of people from Liverpool, who knew alot of lesser known LFC songs and most definately supporters of the club. These same people kicked an elderly bar tender unconcious and when his wife tried to stop it, proceded to punch her.

This disgraceful part of our history is definately not something that should not be mentioned through tact and manners, nor do I believe it is something every parent should bring there kids up to believe didnt happen. I dont know where you are from Johnny Red, but I thing your a disgace to the club and all its supporters with your Victorian attitude.

MOST TRUE FANS LEARNT A LESSON FROM THIS GAME, PRETENDING IT DIDNT HAPPEN IS NOT THE ANSWER!
