In theory Eccles this makes sense, but as you know emotions run high at football matches (imagine if the dippers criticised John Boy!!). I thing the it’s never your fault chant is ok as it relates to bricking coaches (team and supporters), throwing piss, throwing coins at a young City fan and giving her life long scars, racism, abusing the Queen, singing about Shipman. Not one word of that sing can be directly related to Hillsborough, it is more to do with their demented deluded appalling fanbase. They do coward like things like those mentioned above, which shows what sad soft twunts they are, and then they get all tearful over a few words. So although I agree with you I really don’t think that song is bad. More importantly are you continuing to recover well?

I agree with your sentiments @BringBackSwales and understand. Having gone from being ok about End of East Lancs fans to being very scared of them after a couple of incidents at my last visit there, not including the minibus broken window, I’ve changed!! Cowards.

If one of them even glanced wrongly at John Boy heaven help them coping with the death stare!! ;-)

I almost made it to Saturday’s game but my body had it in for me and I didn’t make it but soon I hope. Thank you for asking. :-)


Missed an Easter Egg as well! The youngster who had been having my ticket apparently bought me an Easter egg as a thank you. :-( I missed an Easter egg. ;-)

Well apparently we're just allowed to post anything we want given the abuse I've gotten this week including someone wishing me dead, so if you can't beat them join the cunts. Doesn't seem like there's much point in sticking to rules no one else gives a fuck about.

Wishing you dead is out of order and the poster should get banned indefinitely.

Wishing you dead is out of order and the poster should get banned indefinitely.

To be fair they only wished I got hit by a car or bus, and it was for having the outrageous opinion that if we want opposition clubs to condemn our bus getting attacked we should also do it when theirs is attacked, so I probably deserved it.

The word victim is inherently linked to Hillsborough becuase the families spent decades using that word specifically in their campaign to overturn the accidental death verdict and prove that their loved ones were unlawfully killed victims of a disaster and not the perpetrators they were portrayed as by SYP and the media.


You and others might try and say that it came about in 2012 as a result of the Suarez racsim incident, but that doesn't really explain why the song wasn't heard and reported on until September 2012, more than a year after the Suarez incident but only a 3 days after the Hillsborough Independent Panel published it's report and the government reopened the inquiry.

At the end of the day, we will probably never know the original intention of the person who came up with the song, but that the FA thinks it's about Hillsborough, the press think it's about Hillsborough, Liverpool fans think it's about Hillsborough and you cant make that go away by insisting it's not, and you can't claim ignorance to the fact that some people think it's related to Hillsborough. So as long as it gets sung, the club will have to issue statements, and the papers will report on it.

So even if it's true that a group managed to coopt the song to mean something it wasn't intended to mean - what is the aim of singing it now?

Why complain about the club and media response when you know full well it's going to happen when the song gets sung?

Most of that, I have no issue with. That is completely different to claiming fans deliberately sing it because it lets them sing about Hillsborough while pretending it is not.

I think you should be issuing a statement for that.

How many supporters read the spectator?

The one liverpool one whose tweet he found when he googled the chant 2 hours ago.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

Can't be mithered looking back what are we arguing about now?

 

[BringBackSwales]

Has the bus damage actually been quantified? Was it a brick, was it a stone, was it a can? Good to see that gmp are investigating it, unlike their miseryside colleagues who watched on while missiles were thrown from on top of their vans

You missed the "Johnny Stones" chant travelling right around the stadium on a couple of occasions. He's rapidly becoming the new Zabaleta style cult hero.
