Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere... Today is the 30th anniversary of the Heysel tragedy... ...and yet it isn't all over the papers like Hillsborough... Now I'm not saying one tragedy is worse than any other but they both need to be remembered by the footballing public at large... www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-32898612 |

Yerp. Makes you bloody angry. All for the love of football? Bruce Grobbelaar
Then: Liverpool Goalkeeper, 29
Now: Coaching in South Africa
The players knew about all of the events that night, including that people had died. We should never have played the game. Uefa insisted because they believed that the violence could have continued in the streets. But I certainly said I did not want to play. |

Was that police officer really called Bill Sargeant? What a name for a cop. Edit. Meant to quote the other article Stew posted. |

Did you read Neal's interview? Yerp. ' pay your mortgage.....' I remember watching the match live on tv then all the trouble started. Had my son who was young then watching it with me. I thought the game would be abandoned and when they let it continue I thought fuck this. I am not letting my son watch anymore and switched it over too something else. Sad night that and all for the love of football and money of course. That match, as we all know got all English clubs on an indefinite ban lifted in 1990/1 but Pool got an extra 3 year ban then that was reduced to 1 year. |

English teams were the best in the world during that time. Took until 99 to get back to that standard. |

At least that c*nt Dalgleish was never involved in Europe when he took over from Joe Fagan who resigned as manager after that disaster. He then done a runner too Blackburn Rovers as manager in 1991. King Kenny my arse. |

You aren't off beam at all. 30 years have passed and there is barely a ripple heard. A Memorial service at Anfield? Well done them, they'll still deny any wrongdoing. There was some scouse fuck on the radio this morning talking about how they couldn't believe Platini celebrated the goal, and that the Liverpool players were in no mind to play in a Cup final. Basically, they were saying the only reason they lost was because of what had happened pre-match. |

Phil Neal. Horrible human being. Trying to profit out of tragedy. Shame on you.
