Even as a Man U player Iv'e always held a healthy respect for Cantona. An incredibly talented footballer,with a real sense of justice and injustice. The Sardines quote,the Crystal palace 'incident',the Gallic shrug. Respect to you Eric!
I didn`t realise the OP had done this as 2 separate threads on the LFC board and the MUFC board, but, for what it`s worth this was my reply on the Utd board. Hillsborough, Bradford, Munich and other sporting tragedies are events that should be given respect by ALL sports fans. Club rivalry should never enter the equation, apart from the odd idiot i like to think most normal people think this way. Hillsborough should never have been investigated behind closed doors in the first place. When the papers become public i hope the victims families will be able to find some sort of closure and the victims be able to R.I.P. JFT 96
Gotta respect Cantona - just for 'that' goal and celebration - the whole league was at his feet in that moment. Good to see him publicly support the families of the 96. Still a manc twat tho!
