After the continual and appalling treatment of Shaw by Mourinho, who does nothing but harangue and besmirch the lad, I wonder if it has come to the point where Shaw has thought, ' fuck this, fuck him and fuck this club', I'll do everything I can to get away.

I wouldn't blame him, he seems to be singled out every time he plays.
But Simon Jordan said on the radio last night, "but where does he go after united? With all due respect to city, Chelsea, arsenal and Liverpool, united are the biggest club in the world".

He also came out with shite such as ' the money paid to players is irrelevant if they perform well' I think his mic must have been broken as he surely would have added 'unless they play for that bastard oil club'.
 
I tend to stay away from commenting on anything negatively in relation to Munich; but that is outrageous.

All of those other disasters significantly changed our laws around health and safety, Munich didn’t. Hillsborough indisputably did, as it changed the wider landscape of football in a way that Munich couldn’t lay a glove on: it (arguably) irreversibly changed the safety, the setting, the demographic and ultimately the viability of football in this country. It provided a pivotal and seismic turning point in the history of football as a spectator sport. Munich didn’t.

As a footnote (and I caveat this with the word ‘includes’ that you used) but the putative absence of Aberfan is an even bigger disgrace. That disaster ultimately gave rise to the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, which is arguably the most important single piece of legislation since the Second World War, in terms of shaping British society. If it has been excluded from that programme, then the producer is a fucking moron.
Also Hull trawler tragedy 1968 often forgotten sadly
