R.I.P to the 23 lost in Munich

[TheMightyQuinn]

Why is this any different from clapping on ten minutes for Neil Young's 2nd anniversary?

Deaths are becoming a competition nowadays to see how people can mourn the best.

I was going to begin to explain the difference between fans remembering a fallen player and fifty something years of hypocritical, self serving propaganda but I can't be arsed.

Sums up the club when their own fans had to throw paint at the memorial to cover the AIG sponsorship.

One of the few times I felt sympathy for their fans

Strangely i was talking to my boss a month or so back about that Tenerife air crash . He lost this auntie and uncle on it .
Tha muen did a anniversary article on the crash a few years back . They reported that the crash scene had not been cleared thoroughly and that there was still human remains that had not been cleared .
Think they buried the majority together in a mass grave Southern Cem .

And that is my objection to the continued hand wringing and crocodile tears over Munich. There have sadly been many tragic incidents where lives have been lost which never get a mention, the rags had a so called Charity match for the victims families (remember the one, c*ntona charged them a huge amount to appear) 40+ years after the event, not that they were milking it or anything and yet the families of the Tenerife disaster were left/made to get on with it. The Bradford fire took the lives of many football fans but you wont see one article about that in the main stream news.
It is time to move on from Munich or we will be celebrating the 250th anniversary and people will still be stood outside the swamp with hankies to their wallets, sorry eyes.

They're just like the scousers whom they purport to hate.

That looks more like American servicemen than scousers or Rags???

Nah...Barry Manilow gig.
