I understand that it's politically difficult (or even impossible) for any newspaper to go against the cult now - especially after so many of them refuse to steal the Sun for going on 30 years.My saying there were people without tickets getting in when I meant to write "If there were people without tickets getting in, they got in because..." does not constitute evidence of there being people trying to get in without tickets.
Instead, I found this article, in which you can read how violent, ticketless nor even drunk supporters were to blame for the disaster: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news...l-left-hillsborough-families-distraught-again
Why were they there in the first place?
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/f...Liverpool-fans-branded-worst-Europe-UEFA.htmlBecause they always are, can not remember what game it was but a year or so back ( think it was on 606) they were talking about a Liverpool game in Europe to some of their supporters, they said they had no tickets to the game but they will still go because WE get in no matter what.

My favourite bit is where they complain to UEFA about lax security allowing too many of their fans in without tickets. Always someone else's fault.

I'll assume (please correct me if I'm wrong) from your location that you didn't spend a lot of time at English football matches in the 80s. But if there were not large numbers of ticketless Liverpool fans at that match, and if they weren't charging the turnstiles that day, it was the first neutral venue cup match that they hadn't for at least 10 years before and plenty after. It seems more than a little unlikely to me that the victims simply decided to forego their normal methods of attending football matches and behaved like angels, yet this is the one where a disaster happens.
I'd imagine because there are millions of variables (many random) at any large event and this was the one where it happenedIf ticketless fans are to blame, why weren't there disasters at the other semi finals where ticketless fans also managed to get into the ground? Liverpool had semi finals at Hillsborough in 1980 and 1988 as well as in 1989.

I blame the scousers because everyone else was acting in good faith, trying to do the right thing. The ticketless fans were the ones trying (yet again) to game the system.Which might suggest that a disaster of similar proportions would not have happened, if the crowd was managed properly. I don't get why it is so important for you to put blame on the Liverpool supporters when ticketless fans is just one of one million variables. Avoiding people without tickets to get in is why you have turnstiles, when you open a gate, allowing fans to bypass the turnstiles altogether, of course you are going to enhance the problem.

Although I understand why MPs and Journalists hesitate to state the obvious truths - that cult is insane and could ruin anyone's career.Liverpool fans have history and proof that they have been involved in several instances of trouble and gaining entrance to games with no tickets. I not sure how anyone can defend that action.

I'm all for that as long as we can build a massive fudging wall so they can't come over here on the rob when they realise that if nobody works there's nobody to steal from.It is amazing what they do get away with, i do not know if you heard/read about it but there was once a move to try and get Liverpool to become independent state within England. Its was a long time ago but there was a feeling that they should govern themselves.
I know it seems far fetched but there was a group who wanted it and had a lot of support from the "local people".
