    Hillsborough Memorial Service

    Is anyone on here attending the service at Anfield on Tuesday? I will be there taking both my Liverpool & Hibs scarves with me. I can't believe it will be 25 years!

    Can't make it, but remember the day as if it was yesterday, and where I was when I saw the scenes

    I'm Man United, but some things transcend rivalry. It's great the service will be held in the context of the truth having been revealed, which will surely mean the world the families. I remember our school assembly on the Monday morning after the tragedy being a tribute to the victims.

    I was only 10 at the time I remember the minutes silence the day after when we played Celtic.

    I was 15 and left Scotland after my dad died in 87.. - we were living near Doncaster at the time - and when this game came up just along the road at Sheffield... I so wanted to go and support Kenny`s Hero's.. My mum wouldn't let me go and I called her for allsorts.. I SO wanted to see Liverpool play that day... I was outraged !!!


    Having watched Sheff Weds a few times - the leppings lane was probably where I was heading..

    Justice for the 96..

    Justice will hopefully now be done ,but like so many police cover ups ,the scale on which this was allowed to happen and the length the families have had to go to undercover it when conveniently some of those that rose to the top of their profession are now retired is as corrupt as it can get .There are times when the whole system kicks in to protect vested interests .It truly makes me sick
    The families involved haven't had enough credit for the work and time they have put in to get to where they have .But the club stuck by them and bucked the trend by keeping the issue to the fore .

    I was 21 and only went into the stand rather than the Leppings Lane terracing because of the awful crushing I had experienced the year before on the Terracing at the same venue against the same opponents. Thankfully everyone on our bus made it back, but those memories still bring tears to my eyes every time I watch footage. JFT96

    Won't be there in person but will be there in thought. The drawn out campaign for justice of the families of the 96 is inspirational irrespective of team loyalties and transcends football. The cover up that followed up to the highest level is a national disgrace. Trying to explain to my 11 yr old son the events of that day and the aftermath are met with total amazement.

    We've discussed this before mate and I was in the stand opposite the tunnel. Wont be heading down but will be watching on tv. Its quite scary that its 25 years on since that fateful day.

    I wish you well SH. My late dad (died in '78) was a Scouser and Evertonian - he would have mourned as much as anyone if he'd been around when Hillsborough happened.

    I was in the main stand (opposite you) having been in the spion cop the year before.

    I can't really remember much that happened when I was in my early 20s - but that day is etched in the memory forever.

    Very quiet car driving back to Edinburgh.

    I hope all those involved in the disgraceful lies which appeared the Sun "newspaper" following the disaster are ashamed of themselves listening to the evidence being heard at the Hillsborough enquiry.
