Reply | Liverpool Ban that Disgraceful Rag
at 18:47 11 Feb 2017
Off the top of my head, 14 fans and a few Belgian officials were found guilty of various crimes related to Heysel. While the sentences were lenient (to me, but I don't understand Belgian law), there was justice for Heysel. There wasn't anything similar for Hillsborough and the lies spread by the Sun led to the 96, and the city as a whole, being unfairly slandered.
Also worth pointing out that Juventus fans didn't react very well to Liverpool asking for forgiveness when they played each other in 2005, which shows what an emotive issue it is, both for Heysel and Hillsborough. [Post edited 11 Feb 2017 18:49]

I don't really see the relevance of the Valencia game - would he look at that, the defeat to St Gallen or his Ajax team beating Barcelona? Or would he simply look at what a club could achieve in the future, rather than what has already happened?
But regardless of that, you would like to think we've put some feelers out to him, at others at a similar level. Don't ask, don't get. |

I suppose the saving grace was that none of it was nasty (i.e booing him when he touched the ball) and hopefully his English still isn't good enough so some of the songs slew over his head. I doubt he'd have received that abuse had he been a permanent player, rather than a loanee.
Personally speaking, it was one of the best atmospheres I've been to for a while. As soon as we saw the line up, we knew we were probably going out so it look a lot of the tension out of the game. [Post edited 17 Feb 2014 12:09]
