Doesnt he work for the beeb now?
So this what âJustice For The 96â was about? I thought it was an enquiry into Liam Dunne breaking Gary Kirbyâs hand.
I would have gone with Liam McHales sending off, but not bad.
Some fool on OTB tonight showing total naivety by going on about how Milan fans started singing Youâll never walk / win again or alone after 6 minutes of their EC semi vs Real 3 days after the Liverpool / Forest game. He then started to eulogise about sport and compasion, blah , blah completely forgetting the wonderful relationship Milan have with the fans of the Old Lady herself over in TorinoâŚit was cringeworthy stuff
Same sort of carry on with Liverpool fans back when Juve came to Anfield in the Champions League a few years ago. The Liverpool fans had some sort of tribute to the fans murdered at Heysel and we had to suffer people saying what a wonderful gesture it was when in reality most of the Juve fans turned their back on them.
Correct, I admired the Juve fans for that stance, as did Del Piero.
The kop trying to justify the murder of almost forty people by singing a song and holding a banner up in Italian and passing it off as a wonderful gesture, horrible is not the wordâŚ
Dead right mate, they should have battered the fuck out of those greasy wops and made them watch re runs of the wall collapsing.
- 1 mate, The kop got their fucking comeuppance on the 15 april 1989 anyway, id imagine that was all was going thru the Juve fans minds as they turned their backs on that sick display
As long as you feel vindicated Mickee, thatâs all that matters to me pal.
I just want justice to be served like yourself mate
Let us not forget Munich 72 either⌠40 years on and still we see no great memorial to these wonderful men.
Its been handled in a much more dignified fashion that the carry on today i must say.
Alex is obviously a cunt but itâs sweet to see Kelvin get his comeuppance.
yeah look its always easy to be wise after the event but most in his position at the time would have considered doing the exact same thing
All the other editors had the same info. The Sun went in hard and over the top while the others didnât. Nothing to do with hindsight.
It was a convenient angle in the context of the prevailing narrative in the thatcherite base. As such it wasnât subjected to much scrutiny.
Yep, Iâd say they lept on it alright and took a lot of joy in going full âgotchaâ on it. Iâd say Kelvin McKenzie regrets it now though, mostly because his name will always be closely followed by âwhat a cuntâ.
yes , beacause at the time it wasnt actually considered to be too wide of the mark by most observors after what happened in 1985
