Phil Neal here, absolutely disgusting. Wanted paying for his interview.

Heysel: the witnesses' stories

For players and fans, for the survivors and the relatives of the dead, for all those who thought they were going to a sporting contest and ended up in a war zone, memories of that night in May are still raw. Jamie Jackson heard their remarkable stories.

Those comments by Phil Neal are absolutely unbelievable. Had to read it twice!

Phil Neal
Then: Liverpool captain, 34
Now: Merseyside Radio commentator

I'd rather forget that night. It was an ordeal. But, Jamie, why should I help you out? I'm helping you pay your mortgage [by talking to you about Heysel]. When people ask me for my view, they usually have to pay for it. You're asking for my help for nothing. To pay your mortgage, Jamie. I mean, what do you want from me?

I just thought that as the captain of Liverpool football club on that night at Heysel it would be good to hear your view?

Yes but what do you want from me? If I talk to you for a few minutes, then I'm helping you pay your mortgage and what am I getting in return? Do you know what I mean?

Well, I have been to Italy and talked with some of the families of the victims and they say that the trophy should be given back by Juventus to commemorate what happened.

About Juventus? Why are you asking me? Why are you asking someone on the Liverpool side? Juventus made amends very soon. Ask them ... Jamie I'm helping you pay your mortgage. People who want my views pay.

I'm sorry, but everyone else I have spoken to has ...

Great. So you've spoken to people, you've got your views. You've got your Liverpool view, but if you want mine for free, well people pay for them.

Haha. Mate, I bet you sit there watching all their games. I’m right, aren’t I? Ridiculous that anyone who doesn’t toe the line is called RS.

Honestly mate why are you in this thread, your sole purpose in here seems to be to defend the rs. The phrase "offended by everything" springs to mind whenever I read one of your posts.

Disgusting excuse of a human being. I hate them all TBF, but that is beyond belief bad.

I’m not defending anything or anyone. I’m merely pointing out, on occasion, how ridiculous I think some of the stuff posted in this thread is.

The rabid hatred of all things Liverpool Football Club that comes across in some of the posts is, in my opinion, well over the top. I’d like to think that it’s just people venting on an Internet forum and that they don’t carry on like that in real life, but I’m not so sure. Generally speaking, I hate what our rivalry with them has become and long for how it was when I was growing up. It’s poisonous now.

Untruths or truths.
Remember.
Truth hurts
Lies don't.

That banner was and still is pathetic. Daft thing is, it was probably made by someone who wasn’t even born or was just a little kid in 1985.

Sorry, but pathetic isn't a suitable synonym for openly mocking Everton - it's direct at 'us' - through the death of 39 fans caused by 'their' actions.

Like others have said, I simply can't comprehend an Evertonian using that term at all. What about attacking the City bus? Behaviour in Athens? The list goes on.

When were you growing up? Because as far back as i can go it's always been the same and in the late 70s it was worse.You might think differently as a redman.
