    I think most scousers don't either. They just have a louder minority.

    I mean it’s all ifs and buts. But if everyone that turned up at hillsborough bought a ticket, and nobody tried getting in for free….. and everyone remained patient. Would it have still happened?

    yes there was fault with the policing but they aren’t (as a fan base) completely blameless.

    I lost respect for Liverpool a very long time ago, how about some views from Italy, the first pic is very fitting to yesterdays booing...

    Liverpool fans in the 70’s and 80’s were top class.
    Now they’re all “Woe is us” and how badly they are done to. I’ve lost all respect for their club, fans and self pitying city.

    This is a really funny take, but whenever I want a funny take on politics I read Albert's Chip Shop, its like reading the Sun or Daily fail on steroids.. I live in a country where Charles is the Duchy, the amount of land the Duchy have here and rent out to farmers for extortionate prices, you really want everyone to pay their respects to a family whose entire linage and privileged is based of pillaging not just this country but countless others. My respect for the scousers went up a notch when I saw them booing.....

    Calm down calm down

    but in Australia for example haven’t the convicts, settlers and previous governments taken land from the indigenous inhabitants of that fair land themselves?

    same with South Africa?

    the brits were the original bad guys but haven’t generations of white citizens been just as bad?

    and whilst I’m on the topic.. we should have sent Rolf Harris and Barry Humphries back sooner…

    just my view sport!

    Yes of course and not just white citizens, in New Zealand you have the Maori who eventually colonised the Maurori, the Azetecs in S.America, The Mayans in Mexico (some scholars are now debating if the Cherokee are an offshoot from the Mayans formed in their distaste of Mayan civilisation based on recreation of Cherokee mythology). This isn't the point. The problem is the vast majority of civilisations are based on colonisation, yet the irony is in England, we not only have a nation based on colonisation and class based politics, somehow the upper echelons of class in the UK (and US now), have so beaten out any notion of class based politics that they have the working class, not just working away in what is slowly becoming worse conditions daily, they have them praising and singing their kings name rather then making a mockery of him... The origins of harvest festivals and spring festivals used to be based in making a mockery of the king and lords, villagers used to take in turns on stage reacting the king in a mocking way (read David Graeber's works on medieval history if you want further information on this). The idea that the UK's history, is rooted in the lower classes paying respect to the king is rooted in a mythology written by the kings.... Yet they have people believing it.

    I thought they were murdering people in the eighties unless I've got my decades mixed up?
