    Explain to me why it's wrong to bring up Heysel, when Liverpool fans jump on the back of a two year old video of a young child being racist. Fact is it is totally wrong on every level (The Vid), but fact remains Heysel killed people, even if we choose to not talk about it.

    Most people are happy to have a discussion about it, just not when it's used as pointscoring or in an argument as brb has done here/before.

    How many years were English clubs banned for after that? I can’t remember.

    In my experience, Liverpool fans are not okay to discuss Heysel in the same sentence as Hillsborough. It's a big no no, again just in my experience.

    I'm not sure brb is using it as point scoring, he's using at an (please forgive me for a better word) appropriate time because of the way this is playing out.

    He knows I operate a zero tolerance stance on the subject as a Liverpool mod and he was responding to me...

    So a Liverpool fans can't comment on anything ummm ever, because of something that happened 30 years ago?

    They're commenting on something in isolation and it has **** all to do with the Heysel disaster which was obviously terrible. What relevance did it have to the discussion at hand?

    You're off your ****ing rocker bru <ok>

    Nothing to do with club alliance. Find one genuine person (even on these boards, ) that serious supports the behaviour in that video.


    (I didn't know it was from two years ago when I commented)

    Yeah, you’re right.


    In the aftermath, all English clubs were banned for five years from competing in Champions League and UEFA Cup play. Liverpool's ban, at first indefinite, was eventually set at 10 years and then later reduced to six.

    Exactly!

    No one bothered to check, but took Tobes vid on face value after yesterday's events.

    My point was, why did Tobes choose to post it?

    Doesn't change the fact that parents are (were) teaching their kids to act in a tribe like way whilst swearing and being racist.

    My comment isn't as a football fan, it isn't anti-Millwall; I'd say the same of it were a Liverpool fan or someone from my family. It's a humanity issue!
