Heysel

You're OK, mate. We do all remember it, some more than others, for obvious reasons

 

Be very ****ing careful. You weren't there. Some of us were.

 

I apologise if i was either ignorant or offensive. I don't mean to downplay to trauma for anyone who was there.

 

Accepted

 

I actually feel s**t for starting the post.
From afar it looks ignored and that is all I was trying to point out.

Massive mistake by me. I can't apologise enough.

 

Everyone makes mistakes, it takes guts to apologise

Some good will come out of it because at least you now have a truer picture of the situation and can spread that truth if faced with misconception in the future. We all mourn the loss of life, poor people never returning home after a game of football.

 

No problem I'll edit the OP and some posts for you.

 

I was.

 

Thank you for being so gracious and understanding. Respect to you all.
I love the city of Liverpool since I went on a mini cruise from there last year. We were so impressed by the dockside and all the attractions that we are coming over for a few days in September.

Cheers fellas

 

My thoughts are with you and the Juve supporters who went through this. RIP the 39!!

 

I was there. I **** myself and grabbed my then fiancée and was out of there when the wall collapsed. That said, we went back in when we thought it had died down, and I was stunned on the train back from Brussels to Ostend to hear that people had died. I won't run through the litany of attacks from both sets of supporters leading up to getting to the ground (our tram was showered by bricks and iron bars three hours before the kick off, but I'm sure that wasn't the only act of violence by either set of fans that evening before we got to the ground), but how it changed from drinking in bars and cafes with Italians I still can't work out. Maybe some thugs (on both sides) turned from pleasantly pissed to aggressively arseholed. I do know that when I got home two days later and saw it on the telly I saw some (a handful) of liverpool fans still charging at the Juve fans after that wall had collapsed.

Anyway, the 39 poor innocent fans running away from the thugs were innocent human beings who'd come to watch a game of football. I'll never forget that could have been me and my girl on the other side of the ground trying to get away, haad the circumstances been slightly different.

RIP to the 39 indeed.

 

I think that says it all, Donga. Tragic for the 39, but it wasn't by any means one-sided.

 

don't rise to it lads. use the systems. this is two weeks in a row right at lunch time he's done this

 

I was surprised by the lack of coverage at first. Fair play to LFC for putting it up on their website though.

I doubt any Liverpool fan would forget this though and I dont see how making a thread on a forum makes it any better than simply remembering at home, which i assume all of you did.

RIP the 39.
