Hillsborough - Justice for the 96!
April 15th, 2008 by EoinOn the 15th of April, 1989 two of Europe’s best teams, Liverpool and Nottingham Forrest met in the semi-final of the FA Cup.
Sheffield Wednesday’s Hillsborough stadium was chosen as the neutral venue.
The stadium wasn’t up to it!
The organisers weren’t up to it!
The police weren’t up to it!
And 96 Liverpool fans were crushed to death…
Still the families wait for justice!

The memories of the fans pulling other fans to safety and advertising hordings being used as stretchers will stay with me forever.
You’ll Never Walk Alone…
