Was glad to hear the 4 agencies (including the FA) this morning though could be answering cases of negligence and unlawful manslaughter.BrianW said:Our society, at the top, is riddled with corruption. The strange thing is, most people are blind to this. They persuade themselves there's just the odd rotten apple, when in fact it's a whole barrel of stinking fish.
Quite right. It's a myth. There never has been a "British sense of fair play. "Slavery is a testament to that amongst many other things. Not that Britain is alone in this regard.
The FA to this day has no regard for the fans. the 5:30pm Wembley kick offs being an example of that. They had no consideration in 1989 in awarding that Semi to Hillsborough, knowing there was no safety certificate. How Sheffield Council and Sheff Wed between themselves allowed a ground to be open without a safety certificate is an outrage...even back in '89. None of that excuses the self serving corrupt and violent South Yorkshire Police Force for their handling of that sad day in our history.
Justice for the 96.
