Thanjk you.

Wonder when the scumbags at the FA are going to say something. I see news of Terry's trial date was amazingly leaked earlier today / last night. Convenient. Horrible cunts.
I'm glad I was at work today as I couldn't have coped watching it on TV - I was nearly in bits reading live reports on the BBC. A cousin of mine was in that crush, narrowly escaped and will for ever be haunted by the sight of a woman's face turning blue in front of him. So glad this all finally come to light but no way could today have not been extremely painful for anyone who lost loved ones that day.
I listen to 5 Live quite a lot during the week, and today their coverage has been fantastic. It has basically been blanket coverage since lunchtime.
Richard Bacon gave the current Superintendent of SY Police a fairly hard time in interview, and the rest of the interviews with the families and survivors have been handled with a real degree of dignity.
One other thing, they have neither been playing down the magnitude of todays revelations, nor have they been sensationalising. Opionions have been allowed about Mackenzie and the Sun. One survivor even pointing out that it rankles with him that the BBC use Mackenzie for various shows.
I think one of the biggest things that today will bring is an understanding from the rest of the country who neither live in Liverpool or follow the club of quite what a scandal this is.
Its a landmark day but the fight for justice goes on.
People must be called to order for what happened.
The FA can **** right off. If they dont say anything about it Gerrard should tell them to go **** themselves after not saying sorry for allowing a game to go ahead in a ground with no safety certificate which caused the death of his cousin and the other 95.
What the Sun does or says now is irrelevant. Of more relevance is Kelvin Mackenzie’s continued employment as a columnist and commentator in the media. I’m certainly writing to the editors of the Mail to demand his column is dropped and would be equally determined to hound him off programmes like Question Time. The sleaze ball loves the sound of his own voice and the fees it commands. He should be cut off from both.
Bit lost for words, it's been an incredibly emotional day. Can't really add much to what's already been said. I'd never vote Tory in my life, but I thought David Cameron was magnificent today. Just a pity it took 23 years to reach this point.
