We have had more negativity aimed at our club in the media over the last decade than the Dippers did in 1985 when they murdered 39 innocent football fans and got all UK football clubs banned from europe for five years , even if we have bent the rules and concealed a few quid , we havent killed people.

To be fair him, maybe he just wants to advance to the fourth round......... ;-)
 
This is nothing to do with City but it is to do with the media. Claudia Winkleman is giving up her Saturday morning radio show on the BBC. This was an item on the BBC national television news yesterday. Does anybody actually give a fuck about trivial stories like this?

Not as i remember it , the Dippers horrific actions were all rolled into one and the English disease which was football violence in general was to blame , The Dippers were considered just a victim of the malaise effecting English football. They recieved ONE extra seaosn ban for the 39 murders than all the other UK clubs , which was absolute disgrace , in reality they should have NEVER been allowed to compete in europe again

Has she bought all her keeper jerseys from Nike?

I think that was all a setup to sell more of her shirts. If they were released from the start nobody would have give a shit, but by not releasing it and then the media fuss that followed, created a demand. They're doing the same with the Australia keepers shirt now from what I gather.

The truth that the majority of the British media never want us to remember, to the point where even a chant about it never being Liverpool's fault is treated as almost illegal and obscene. What a world we live in.

"There was a history of violence between English and Italian clubs, and the previous year’s final in Rome had ended in acrimony when Liverpool defeated the local side Roma on penalties. Roma fans, the police, and local hoteliers had all turned on Liverpool fans, who were forced to seek refuge in the British embassy.

Liverpool supporters considered Heysel an opportunity for revenge. The neutral section quickly filled with mainly Italian fans, and all that separated them from the Liverpool section was a flimsy fence. Taunts started, and then missiles began to fly. The fence was quickly breached, and the Liverpool fans advanced. Panic erupted as Juventus supporters and others in the neutral section tried to retreat, only to find their way blocked by a concrete wall. The pressure proved too much, and the structure gave way, crushing the trapped Italian fans and others."

It was the wall's fault though right?!
