Heysel was horrible.
I sometimes feel the 39 killed in that disaster is not commerated enough at merseyside.
Liverpool tried to make some friendly gestures when we played Juve, but all their fans turned their back. They certainly have not forgotten. I don’t blame them.
The two cases are different though in the massive government coverup instigated by the South Yorkeshire Police. Incidently, the same Police Department behind the muslim rape/grooming coverup more recently in Rotherham.
As for any consequences for Everton because of it. Yes, it probably hurt you, but in the larger sense it seems to matter little.
Anyhow, just looking at soccer threads as I get ready for the Europa league final tonight.
BTW: Everton fans have been generally exemplary in support of the Hillsborough families. Even Martinez held a very moving speech a few weeks back.
You’ll never walk alone.
One of the reasons I support Everton is that the rivalry with Liverpool isn’t a mean-spirited one, and isn’t religious-based like Celtic-Rangers.
I hope Liverpool wins tonight.
