Hillsborough Trial collapses on 17:41 - Jun 5 by onehunglow

I actually agree with that.
Fans were wild animals on many occasions in those days and were treated by Police as scum,not surprising when you recall the carnage and fear they caused as they trashed whole town centres. We have short selective memories and young ones -under 40 !-need to understand that. Our own fans were no angels and our derby matches were games where fans could not even be expected to go to the ground without trashing places. Bubble burst at Hillsborough .Fact.

Police,IMO ,at ground level did their best ,when they realised what was going on. Their senior officer commanders stand indicted as lying ,devious trash. I knew one of them quite well. The troops ,as usual were sh@t upon from a great height and Ive no doubt about the statements and their veracity.

'@rses burst at silver and gold command as the horrendous carnage unfolded. Some brave but futile efforts from rank and file lads,one of whom was a constable of mine who is seen on the pitch giving CPR. The lad died. My colleague left 3 months later to run a pub. He was appalled .

When people refer to "police" they have to differentiate between working officers and careerists who might a well be managers of a Civil Service department.


This is probably a first but, this is a good post.
