As if the supporters had a fucking choice? If the bloody police had done their job that day and controlled the numbers getting into the ground the 96 would still be alive.

Fuck right off you Manc bastard.

There was an inquiry which absolved the supporters of any blame, but carry out with your agenda Scotty. It sickens me how the death of innocent people can be used by others to simply score points. I think your mind is made up no matter what is presented or unearthed by a new inquiry. Ironically, I bet you weren't even around when the tragedy happened and know nothing of what going the game was like in the 80s, how fans were treated or how many 'close shaves' there had been before Hillsborough?

A bit cheeky of a foreign news show to say this where is all the money coming from

[lolliedeman]

@hohomahoro says the Man utd fan, wich u cant eaven hear the supporters sing. Was there 2 weeks ago, the sound was nothing NOTHING compared to ANFIELD!!! Was just loads of asian supporters, there were almost none english supporters there at all. was so disepointed when the croud was so low, eaven thou it was 70 000 there. 2 000 people would make more noice!

@Rsd79 What pisses me off the most is the fans who think people like John Henry who run Liverpool FC now care about the club and the fans. All they care about is money and they treat football clubs like toys to play with. The sooner they all get bored and fuck off, the better. Central government should be doing a lot, lot more to help the situation, but of course, they're useless bastards.

@KopiteP250505

before China, I think the Bundesliga will be the top league because they are currently the best run league overall. I want the NHL to contract it's league from 30 to 24 clubs because the talent pool is diluted now and the southern US teams are losing money hand over fist. However, these southern US teams, give the NHL the opportunity to get national tv deals.

I think the EPL is on the same boat because money talks so foreign investors are staying.

[KopiteP250505]

@Rsd79 But the EPL won't always be the best league with the best players. In 100 years, all the best players and the money will be in China. We don't want the proper local hardcore fans to leave. We want the foreign, glory-hunting whoppers to fuck off, which they will cos' they don't understand loyalty or passion that people like me feel for our clubs that make us willing to kill or die for them.

I hope english fan culture will be like in the past again.

@matt61234666 not much of an accomplishment selling all the clubs to oil sheiks and yanks is it?

[hohomahoro]

Haha liverpool. you sold yourselves to the gloryhunters

Glory glory MAN UNITED

[KingofKpop]

Good, everything will be owned by Chinese, Indians and more Asians.
