ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3


Diogenes the Cynic said:
The article in today's Guardian regarding Hillsborough chanting is an absolute disgrace.

Completely swallowing the kopite propaganda that the victims chant is about Hillsborough.

And not once mentioning the fact that kopute fans are more guilty than most when it comes to chanting about tragedies.

The establishment club strikes again.

Also contradicts their own article stating the chant started after the Evra abuse https://www.theguardian.com/football/2012/sep/15/manchester-united-liverpool-victim-chants

Well they play Leeds on Monday, nailed on they will be accused of it
 

I find certain chants tasteless whether they are sung by us or anyone else. Pathetic from any football fans really trying to justify them.

Hope the club have a minutes silence before today's game to remember the victims of that awful afternoon. I remember it well being at Villa Park at our semi final and reports spreading around the crowd and death toll rising.

How Duckenfield never served time is beyond me. His control box was overlooking the Leppings Lane end and could see the central pens were already full beyond capacity before he ordered the exit gate to be opened. A simple order to close off the tunnel to the central pens and to shepard the fans to the almost empty side pens would've saved every life that was lost that day.

iirc, 1(?) minor participant did a small amount of time.

Again, iirc, Duckenfield and one or two others were much later tried for 'Perverting the Course of Justice'
Not being exactly forth coming, peoples recollections may vary etc, etc at the hastily convened Inquiry.
But some smart arse argued that as the (hastily convened - how convenient) Inquiry, was not one your actual 'Judicial' Inquiries...there could be no 'Course of Justice' to pervert - *gravel bangs Case dismissed.
