    Michael Mansfield is looking his age.......

    I just had a look at the S*n and they are carrying the story as a straight news piece, it'll be interesting to see if they allow an opinion or editorial article on it. Feel free to ignore the link below (that's why I borked it) but some might like to see them acknowledge it

    I've been choking back tears all day, I start to read, watch, listen and just well up. I've seen others say it, this isn't just a football thing, this is a monumental day in British history.

    Although 96 people died as a direct result of the tragedy, there are others who have since lost their lives indirectly - suicide, alcohol. In addition, there were many others who were injured physically but still suffer the psychological effects, not forgetting the 1000's in the stadium that witnessed the tragedy and were powerless to help. The ripple effect across the families and friends of the 96 is hard to imagine. Let's remember not just the 96, but spare a thought for everyone affected by the tragedy.

    Andy Burnham, the Labour MP who has done arguably more than any politician to take the Hillsborough process to where it is today, has called for criminal prosecutions in the wake of the inquest. These are some of the quotes he have outside the court:

    The question I’m asking is, how did something this simple take so long? ...

    (On the verdicts): It exceeds anything that we could have expected. But it’s only what they deserve. This is justice for them. Their loved ones. Tonight, for the first time in 27 years, can rest in peace...

    Now come accountability. Disgracefully, slurs have been thrown around in this courtroom about supporters of Liverpool football club. Disgracefully, the cover up has continued in this courtroom, Disgracefully, public money has been spent on those lies and putting these families through hell once again. I find that completely unacceptable.

    People must be held to account for their actions. Prosecutions must follow.

    'I do not accept the police apology', says victim's mother

    The mother of a 17-year-old Hillsborough victim said she does not accept the apology from South Yorkshire Police.

    Mary Corrigan, whose son Keith McGrath was one of the 96 who died in the disaster, said: "They have had 27 years to tell us the truth.and to say what happened.

    "We have had to fight so many lies and they have the nerve to say they apologise today."

    It's incredible seeing the times of deaths being extended for so many of them.
