The Official Liverpool FC Thread [Vol 7]
Discussion
With respect to the inquests what reporting restrictions are in place?
I note the LFC website & TV channel are restricted in what programmes they can show today, the Grobelaar interview has been censored and there are no "memorial" programmes being broadcast this evening / at the weekend.

Thanks for posting that.Lovely words from Roberto, and from Brendan.
Damn I feel proud to be a Liverpool fan tonight.
I will freely admit to crying reading The justice bell again.
And having read through all today,s posts,watched the news and the videos HR linked Makes me remember again why I love football so much.
We have spent all season bickering among ourselves and with other teams fans but today we all pulled together as a football family to Honour and remember the 96.
I have had personal tragedies in my own life and know how important my family and friends were to me,I can only pray in some way all the heartfelt tributes in here today have some crumb of support for just a single person touched by what happened that day.
Thank you to all fans of all clubs for showing the real meaning of being a football fan.

Its a real pity our next home game is against a shallow, plastic new money team that wouldn't appreciate heritage and tradition if it bit them on the bum, the game will be another huge emotional spine tingling event in a lot of peoples life (as the city game was) for many reasons but as I said its a pity its against a soulless plassy team.

In defence of Chelsea, ask Ron Harris about playing for Chelsea and you might get a different opinion about the pre-Abramovich era.Haven't seen any of the coverage yet, and in a way I'm thankful for that as it always upsets me. Of course it would be amazing to win the league this year, however things like trophies etc pale into insignificance when compared to Hillsborough. May they all rest in peace, and hopefully there will be some party up there come the last day of the season. JFT96

I saw some clips on the news and youtube last night, then woke from a bad dream at 4am (badly delivering a final project presentation for my degree, if you are interested)to Mike Graham on talksport playing the speeches by Rodgers, Martinez et al to an instrumental backing of He's Not Heavy. I won't lie, I was welling up.DSLiverpool said:

God forbid it ever happens to LFC. (The fans wouldn't allow it)
Exactly how would the fans stop it?Exactly how many would protest at 100's of millions being thrown around on transfers, infrastructure, stadium etc etc etc?

If you think the likes of you or I have any sway where this is concerned, you are sadly mistaken. My club, Plymouth Argyle, lost a sizeable amount of wedge on the botched World Cup bid, where we would have been a preferred stadium come the 'inevitable' World Cup in England(!). I would imagine you could count the number of fans who gave a hoot about a few World Cup games over remaining financially safe on one hand. I didn't.

Yeah...er...that was my point However it does have to be said that if Abramovitch was in it for the money I'm sure simply putting it into the bank and taking his 2% would have generated more of a ROI than he's getting at Chelsea

Yeah but would that keep him alive? Lets face it if it wasn't for the profile he'd gained through purchasing trophies for Chelsea he'd be in a Siberian prison or a morgue.

The guy has an ego bigger than the Ukraine; gathering interest quietly doesn't fit his character.
