Unlawful killing by the out of control mob that stormed the stadium.

Re: Hillsborough

Many people fell for the propaganda, police sought to establish a case emphasising levels of drunkenness and aggression among Liverpool fans, alleging fans arriving at the stadium late, were determined to force entry.

Re: Hillsborough

Having encountered Liverpool football supporters several times while at university at Manchester I can affirm that atrocious behaviour re-enforced by alcohol and raw tribalism was an integral part of their how they went on as a matter of course.

Faced with the embedded sense of entitlement that runs through Liverpool residents like Blackpool running through a stick of rock the sight of a closed door would have sent the mob into blind rage intent on getting what they wanted.

Boris Johnson was absolutely right in his summation.

Re: Hillsborough

Fans behaviour made the police job more difficult but did not cause the disaster.

The Old Bill were having to react to the awful behaviour of the out of control mob.

If there had been no out of control mob then any and all actions of the police that day would not have resulted in the manslaughter that took place, that was 100% down to the Liverpool rabble.

Re: Hillsborough

If the police had nothing to hide then they would not have
altered police notes, fan's statements. The referee has said his statement was changed to support allegations fans were drunk, typed version of his statement referred to fans as being "pissed" when he had originally written "mixed".

It's just a witch hunt! If this is how you are treated why would anyone want to be "Match Commander"?

Re: Hillsborough

Ok, and if those responsible are identified no doubt will be arrested. I get your point. Not genuine fans IMO.
