The cost of this was down to the police cover up - everyone is out of pocket because of their lies.
2) "The Scousers just didnt let it go."
This is an interesting one. Had this tragedy occurred with Man utd, Arsenal, Villa or any other team - would they have fought against it for 27 years to get justice?
I think a lot of negative sentiments toward the victims and their families will have stemmed from those initial lies that for years too many easily swallowed as the truth. South Yorkshire Police and The Sun have a lot to answer for.
The struggle against that backlash for the families is something I couldn't imagine suffering.
The disaster was literally waiting to happen as well, I can't understand how people paint it as something that could have happened only to Liverpool fans.
