I hope whoever is still alive and can be held responsible, is. Been a long time coming.

YNWA.

Going to post a couple links for people to read (and watch through) for anyone not aware of the Hillsborough tragedy

As I mentioned in the other thread, Duckenfield and most of the rest of the South Yorkshire Police Service are too old at this point to really feel the effects of any punishment.

More about the families now....

and maybe putting to bed some of the bitterness that still remains from that era of football.

This link is for ESPN's 30 for 30 which was initially banned in the UK.

Si, I think that photo is a bit much mate. Not having a go, just really disturbed me when I saw it.

I can pull it if you think its a good idea.

That was the front page photo of most of the major US newspapers in the days after. Black and white. I remember it vividly.

The 2013 BBC documentary is linked above as well. Both are worth a watch. The Hillsborough 30 for 30, however, is a much more detailed and haunting documentary.

Well, it wasn't banned for being controversial, it was banned because the jury trial was ongoing and the movie contained previously unseen footage and contained previously unaired details.

It's a great documentary though, well worth watching. I've watched it probably 8 times now and cried every time. Not ashamed to admit it, either

It is haunting and heartbreaking. Watching as I type, stopped counting after the 5 or sixth time I cried. Still have well a half hour to go...Watching the video of one man who I assumed was the father, carrying his kid off the pitch is something I will never forget.
