YADNBU!!! Angry shocking the level of deceit and blame placed on the fans. This is something that has hung over our city too long.

gordyslovesheep · 12/09/2012 18:29

no yanbu - it's appalling

kdiddy · 12/09/2012 18:31

YANBU at all - I'm no legal expert so I hope if there are criminal cases to answer then they are brought. If nothing else, morally what some peoria have done is reprehensible and they need to be brought to account.

Definitely YANBU

kdiddy · 12/09/2012 18:32

Wtf is a peoria?! People...

SoleSource · 12/09/2012 18:41

Sigh. Another cover up. Totally unsurprised.

Thete lives meant nothing to the Government.

Words. Just. Fail.

Yanbu, poor famlies.

Ilovedaintynuts · 12/09/2012 18:45

YANBU - hideous.

I am hundreds of miles away from Liverpool but I'm furious that I was lied to about the whole sorry affair. I read the Sun report of lies and BELIEVED IT at the time.

People should be punished. There is no time limit on justice.

Prosecute the nasty, lying bastards.

ThatVikRinA22 · 12/09/2012 18:47

i would not be surprised to see prosecutions given time. i am a serving police officer- it would never happen today. i feel so sorry for those who have had to fight for so long - my DH was there, he is a liverpool supporter.

i think the force today bears no resemblance to the force it was back then. The truth will always out. I hope those who were affected rest in peace and i hope the families can begin to find some peace. its so very sad.

lisaro · 12/09/2012 18:50

I thoroughly agree. It's disgusting and it's a shameful embarrassment to the country.

KenDoddsDadsDog · 12/09/2012 18:50

Agree - I would love it to happen. Can't see how they can't reopen the inquest now.

MrsKeithRichards · 12/09/2012 18:52

I'm fucking furious it has taken until now for Kelvin Mackenzie to apologise.

Cunt.

dotnet · 12/09/2012 18:57

It shouldn't be impossible to find out who gave the say-so to the altering/deleting of hundreds of police statements. Yes, prosecution of that wicked criminal is essential.

getmeoutofthismadhouse · 12/09/2012 19:00

If no prosecutions are likely then at the VERY least famillies of the 96 should be given a public apology direct from the responsible officers who were to blame . Now the truth is out its the least they could do and admit once and for all to even single person who lost a loved one that day that they were to blame !!
It's taken too long !

KenDoddsDadsDog · 12/09/2012 19:03

Kelvin MacKenzie was on the R4 Today programme three or four weeks ago when I was driving home from work. He STILL believed he would be vindicated even then. Vile cunt.

Ilovedaintynuts · 12/09/2012 19:07

I can't believe they did CRB checks on the victims! To discredit them - the people who died!

There must be records on who ordered these? Bunch of arseholes. I can't stop raging about this. The sense of injustice Angry

FurCoatSkimpyKnickers · 12/09/2012 19:07

YANBU

I was listening to it on the evening news driving home tonight. They played snippets of the news the day it was happening. I was in tears, it felt so raw. I wasn't personally affected that day so I can't even begin to imagine the feeling of loss of all those who lost someone that day.

Almost 100 died, more injured, thousands of people connected to those victims affected. The whole thing has been dealt with in the most despicable manner and someone has to be held accountable.

gordyslovesheep · 12/09/2012 19:41

mackenzie can rot in hell vile little turd

tidyGOLDbaby · 12/09/2012 19:44

YADNBU! It's taken far too long.

FreudiansGoldSlipper · 12/09/2012 19:48

YANBU

more so for the cover up that went from senior police to senior politicians so many people involved in carry on a terrible lies

kelvin mackenzie is a vile vile man the ultimate tory 80's man no empathy no compassion

travellingwilbury · 12/09/2012 19:48

I agree ! I would live to see some prosecutions brought against the people responsible for this .

And as for Kelvin , he can sod right off , he shouldn't be given air time .

Will be interesting to see the sun front page tomorrow , not that I would ever buy it .

gordyslovesheep · 12/09/2012 19:51

I wouldn't wipe my arse on The Scum

EricNorthmansFangBanger · 12/09/2012 19:53

YADNBU. Mackenzie is a cunt of the highest order and I hope he rots in hell Angry

MrsTerrysChocolateOrange · 12/09/2012 19:55

I'm sitting here in tears reading that. I lived in Liverpool years ago and I have never had the experience of living anywhere with such a feeling of community. That The Sun could print such repulsive things about people who were dead, mourning, grieving, in shock and misery is horrifying.

YANBU.

KenDoddsDadsDog · 12/09/2012 19:58

gordyslovesheep I would shit in the sun though and post it through McKenzie/ Mohans letter boxes
