why weren't those liverpool protest banners confiscated ?

if they want to moan about something they should do it at anfield...i bet if some charlton fans tried the same thing at the valley the stewards would be straight in...

  • I saw those banners but still wasn't sure what they were on about. Was it Hillsborough?

    of course it was, harping on all the time about it!
  • Yeah, the ex Sun Editor has come out and kind of apologised for what was written.

    He still defended parts of what he wrote though, that probably what they're p*ssed by
  • And while some fans were protesting about people being killed behind fences that were put up to stop people running on the pitch what does one Liverpool fan do? Run on the pitch.
  • That was a great rugby tackle by the steward to take him down though!

    I doubt it was his fault though. The police probably made him do it. Or the stewards didn't make it impossible for him to do in a sage way. Or it was our fault for singing too loudly at the opposite end of the ground.

    Indeed. Why didn't I think of that ;-)
  • Scousers and their blinkered views of "justice".

    I didn't see any banners calling for the bringing to justice of those involved in the Heysal disaster. Vermin.
  • This is why - have your own views on Scousers, but MacKenzie's not worth wasting a millisecond of your life defending:

    A law firm has been bombarded with angry emails from Liverpudlians after it hosted a lunch at which Kelvin MacKenzie is alleged to have reopened the row over the Sun's coverage of the Hillsborough disaster.

    Yesterday, the former Sun editor spoke to guests at an annual business event organised by Mincoffs LLP, the Newcastle law company confirmed.

    During the private lunch, Mr MacKenzie is understood to have been asked if he went to Liverpool much following the Sun's infamous coverage of the football disaster.

    The emails from furious Liverpool fans were prompted by a report in the Liverpool Daily Post which alleged he said, at the Mincoffs event, that he was "not sorry then and I'm not sorry now" over the Sun's reporting of the Hillsborough tragedy in 1989, in which 96 people died.

    The Daily Post claims a source told them Mr MacKenzie had said: "All I did wrong was tell the truth."

    The source also alleged Mr MacKenzie said: "I went on The World at One the next day and apologised. I only did that because Rupert Murdoch told me to. I wasn't sorry then and I'm not sorry now because we told the truth."

    Mackenzie is also alleged to have said: "All I did wrong there was tell the truth. There was a surge of Liverpool fans who had been drinking and that is what caused the disaster. The only thing different we did was put it under the headlines 'The Truth'".

    Mr MacKenzie appears to have been told the lunch was off the record as the Daily Post's source said: "He said if the things he had said today got out, he was sure the whole thing would blow up again."

    The former Sun editor's reported prediction appears to have come true as today Mincoffs was inundated with emails from Liverpudlians.
  • It's an absolutely huge subject and i doubt The Truth will ever come out in its entirety. The police and stewards etc have their own agenda as do to Liverpool fans.

    I'm sure there are ounces of truth in what both parties have to say but nobody will admit wholeheartedly that they made mistakes in one of the most iconic and tragic events in football history will they?

  • I tell you what I can remember is that the Sun apologised yet liverpool fans still won't forget yet when they played juve at anfield a couple of years ago and the juve fans turned their backs to the pitch the scousers moaned and said "well we apologised for heisel what more do they want?" Typical double standards .

    I'll tell you another thing , the FA in my opinion were mostly at fault for giving forest the bigger end when they didn't have anywhere near as big attendances as liverpool but just as much at fault were the idiot scousers that pushed their way in without tickets but oh no they never put a foot wrong do they , like the fact they're still blaming west ham and chelsea fans for heisel.
  • The Sun didn't apologise until a couple of years ago, when they signed up Wayne Rooney to serialise his book.
  • and liverpool didn't properly apologise till they had to play Juve
