From disgusting songs about the Hillsborough and Heysel tragedies to goading references to The S*n newspaper and, to a lesser extent, pro-Monarchy sentiments that have misguidedly been designed to bait, there's been a lot of unsavoury stuff aimed in the Reds' direction of late.
This is a quote from a piece on MSN, frankly it's just plain weird and getting a bit scary now. I think I've lived in a different world.
The Hillsborough song (not the generic song that made an appearance after they defended racism) but the one that's been in existence for decades is a disgrace.
However, what's distasteful is to link it link it to songs about Heysel or to a far greater degree pro Monarchy songs.
I hate the Monarchy and I have to say fans singing the national anthem is frankly quite weird, but someone singing a national anthem, or loving the Queen is qualitatively different to defiling a tragedy. I'm sure lots of people who have been affected by that disaster and have supported the campaign will be sympathetic to the Queen.
It's a bit offensive to link those 2 together. I cringe when I hear the Anthem, but I can also understand that this pales into insignificance to the trauma of a survivor of the Hillsborough disaster would feel having songs about the Sun newspaper being right. I'm a bit aghast a media outlet would link the two.
