This could go full circle.

1. Junior school children are taught about Hillsborough.
2. Someone composes a nursery rhyme to commemorate Hillsborough.
3. The nursery rhyme is sung on football terraces so that Hillsborough isn't forgotten.
4. Survivors and family members are traumatised about Hillsborough when they hear the nursery rhyme.
5. Everyone needs to be re-educated.
6. Repeat ad infinitum.

4.a Compo face pictures in the Echo

Tony Evans again from, explaining how victimised they are (I wonder why that is?)

How significant was the mainstream media’s role in how hooliganism and the people of Liverpool in general were perceived?

The accent was criminalised. You should have tried to spend a £20 note in London in the mid-80s with a Scouse accent. Blimey. They examine it, hold it up to the light, show it to their mates and then they wouldn’t want to take it.


They assumed you were a criminal. They assumed that you were on the rob. Basically, they de-humanised us. We were untrustworthy, we were dangerous, it’s bizarre, it’s mad, but the roots of it are in bigotry. They stretch it back to the anti-Irishness of the late 18th and early 19th century.


And they stretch it back to the potato famine and Liverpool’s increasingly separate identity after the famine from the other English cities that surrounded it. The roots of all the suspicion and invective lie there.

The reason that is bullshit is most cockneys can’t tell the difference between Scouse, Manc, or just general “North”

I’ve been asked three times if I was a scouser in London over just the last 10 years or so and I’ve got the most common Mancunian accent going.

Had a piece of that at 11-1

Scouse separatist ……….living in London

221 miles is quite a separation in fairness. When you hear him talk he is still living in the 80s, Orgreave, Toxteth in flames, Stadiums crumbling under his feet, drinking in the Yankee.
Hopefully one day he'll sober up enough to realise it's 2022

Just spotted this headline on ESPN Soccernet ....................

Liverpool lose league match at Anfield for the first time since April 2017​

I know I am getting a bit forgetful but didn't we win there a couple of seasons ago?

What about that time we beat them under Ancelotti?

If only London. Birmingham & Manchester had Irish migrants dating back to the Potato famine.

Ffs he’d got a proper chip on his shoulder.

We've even got an Irish section in Withington Fruit & Veg!
