Respectfully, I don't understand why JFT96 has to trend on Twitter 5+ times a year. Too many people there living in the past, more interested in 'justice' than grieving, or rebuilding their emotions and becoming happy again. Is today the end of it? Everyone's saying 'today is the day'. Again.

(What are they going to do once the 'truth' comes out?)

I hate Scousers as much as the next man but the bottom line is people died at a football match and that shouldn't have happened. You got to understand what the political and football climate was like then. Grounds were frankly shitholes Stamford Bridge being probably one of the worse. I was crushed several times at football queuing up and inside the worse was Tottenham in 1987 where they sectioned off a bit of the Park Lane (away end) from the Shelf (Yid end) we were getting so badly crushed that we had no choice but to climb the fence into the sectioned off bit. All around us were odd shoes and trainers that people had lost in the crush and then climbing over the fence.

The British government hated football and football fans trying for example to bring in a ridiculous and unworkable I.D. scheme. Hillsborough happened after Bradford, Hysel, riots at Luton and Birmingham and high profile court cases against football hooligans mainly the Headhunters so the government didn't give a shit when Hillsborough happened. They sat on all these documents for years and tried to discredit the Liverpool fans who putting rivalries aside had seen there friends and families die in front of them that's something I can't comprehend. So I'm glad they got justice because you should have been able to travel back home from football by train or coach not in a hearse.

Leicester winning the league will suddenly make the PL the 'most unpredictable league' despite the fact only 4(?) other clubs have been winning it for 5 odd decades 

 

Actually will give more hope to incoming managers/players to the league. Like if they can do it, so can they. Doesn't have to be in the big team to achieve this.

So thanks to the TV money this will make it more possible in the coming years.

Dele Alli Charged

[Fulham Broadway 16,917]

Red media bias watch no. 1032.

 

R5 discussion on Sakhos positive drug test, and all the talk is of ''how Liverpool will manage without him''. Nothing about it being 'wrong'. Couldnt help thinking how if it had been a Chels player , they would be calling for life bans and how Chelsea are all about everything thats wrong with the game.

Imagine if that would have been Costa.... 

Thats what I hate about Journo's! Is it because he's English he gets less hassle? 

Either way - kinda sad for the lad, but he has to learn to let his football do the talking...

Stiliyan Petrov looking to return to playing after being out for four years with Leukaemia.

Great player and great news.

One more win Claudio, one more win!

[Special Juan 27,439]

United will beat them Sunday.

[lucio 5,418]

could see everton beating them too, and it going to the final game

[manpe 10,861]

Stop being so pessimistic. Leicester have beaten far better teams this season than United or Everton or even us. Can't see them stopping now.

With Dele Alli season is over now, surely it is a big blow for Spurs. He has been playing 33 times out of 35.

[Laylabelle 9,381]

3 points from 3 games surley they can!

[KevinAshburner 1,270]

Arsene Wenger is the biggest tosser and the biggest joke of a Manager. If it wasn't for that invincible season Arsenal had many years ago, he would have been sacked.
