Here you will see what i mean type r
Has a lot more to his game than Kante , diff type of player

Certainly whets the appetite but those highlights things always do. Would he get that much space in the Prem for those dribbles? Looks quality though.

Hi chaps - need to ask a big favour
- has anyone got 1 or 2 tickets going spare for the first home match on 19/8 against Palace?

I'm coming to UK for a holiday and will be in the area that day and would love to be able to go and even better if my 12 yr old lad can come as well.

If possible let me know, thanks.

Duckenfield and 5 others to be prosecuted over Hillsborough.

Duckenfield for manslaughter of 95 people, the rest for other charges

I was 18 at the time and cannot believe it has taken so long for the truth to be discovered
Sort of mixed feelings for an old man possibly going to prison

I don't think the tickets have gone on sale yet.

Wow, I honestly thought those responsible were still going to get away with it.

Nope not yet, only the 1st run of auto cup

Managed to get myself in for every home cup game next year

[can't remember]

Duckinfield charged with manslaughter by gross negligence, which is as good as can be expected, and that sniveling little liar Bettison charged with misconduct in a public office. I am so glad Bettison has been charged.

Ok thanks chaps.

Wasn't sure if a season holder already knew they couldn't go and might have it spare or if anyone fancies an Aussie visitor to join them is be happy to buy the beer

It's taken a very long time. Hats off to those who stayed the distance.

Fantastic news. What happens next, does this go to trial?

[SydneyBridge]

this explains the process

if any of them plead guilty, they will sentenced- if not, It will go to Trial

after everything that's happened, I hope they have the decency to plead guilty

Fat chance of that happening, I bet... Good news but taken so damn long.

Wonderfull news. Given the CPS has agreed charges based on information by the IPCC, all six pleas will be interesting to hear.

Yup! Since it's such a high profile case you have to think that they've pressed charges because they think the case against them is pretty strong!

[uk66fastback]

From the BBC site:

"Sir Norman has said he is "disappointed to be charged" and will "vigorously defend" his innocence."

He'll go down fighting I am sure. Duckenfield has never seemed to be overly arrogant - certainly from what I have seen in his later years.

Bettison has seemed arrogant from he word go.

[Flip Martian]

Joe Gomez is off to Brighton on loan, apparently.

EDIT. Or not, apparently. Klopp wants to assess him first (someone clearly jumped the gun on that one).

Sometimes it's easy to forget some of the st that went on in the aftermath of Hillsborough. There are numerous individuals in the media and politics I'd love to see held to account, too.

Yes, one in particular springs to mind.. won't mention his name

[jammy-git]

Would love to use the £70m we're thinking of using for Keita and tempt Bayern with an offer for Vidal!
