... in the Sun ?

Have they moved with the times or is it just a cynical ploy to drive people to the (paid for) website that will STILL carry the images?

I'll let you decide !

I have to say, once again, The Sun was an absolute joy to work for; professional, efficient, deserving all of the 5 million plus circulation it had during my ten years as a weekly columnist.

No one reports football better than The Sun.

Not in 1989 it didn't.

Exactly. Many of us have never read it since.

I did recently drop my principals a bit when they were doing coupons for five pounds worth of free meat or vegetables at Morrisons. I wouldn't buy a copy but asked my husband to bring home the discarded ones from his work canteen. I was truly mortified when he left one on the back shelf of the car for all to see!

I really admired the Scouse boycott but still consider the police to be the villains there - they started and promoted the vile excuse for their appalling behaviour.

It was the police who sold the lies remember they altered the statements.

It was a tragic accident and hope the victims families find the justice they deserve.

JK I have worked for many media outlets and the only one that paid on time and gave me no grief was News Corp.

still in denial ?

someone trampled them to death, didn't they?

Yes I've never known any other media organisation more efficient - whatever one may think morally.

No I think it WAS a tragic accident (caused by various reasons) but the cover up afterwards was essentially police protecting their own and that was truly disgraceful but no surprise.

I lie of course...

the other person who never ever quibbled about payment was Kerry Packer.

The nightmare of all nightmares- Robert Maxwell and for a few years I worked on a publciation owned by Adnan Kashoggi- a joy to work for. (Arabs always are. )

This is of course the way to (1) buy loyalty and (2) ensure you get maximum performance from who you are paying.

I know people in their late 70s who are still on generous pensions from Big Kerry long after they retired.

sadly his son does not have the same philosophy nor do I think does Rupert's ( except Lachlan who will never be in charge because he is far too nice)

### Tits are still there..just covered

Quite right JK.

Also any justice for Heysel ITK ?

It is not an accident if someone sees people being crushed and then does nothing.

I agree with the police / cover-up (all after the event) BUT when you say it was a "tragic accident" are you saying these people did not realise they were pushing / shoving and trampling people to death ?

Yes unfortunately; I've been in an out-of-control mob a couple of times in my life and you're swept along like a tidal wave.

Still deluded !

Approximately 1 hour before the Juventus-Liverpool final was due to kick off, a large group of Liverpool fans breached a fence separating them from a "neutral area" which contained mostly Juventus fans. They ran back on the terraces and away from the threat into a concrete retaining wall. Fans already seated near the wall were crushed; eventually the wall collapsed. Many people climbed over to safety, but many others died or were badly injured. The game was played despite the disaster in order to prevent further violence.

The tragedy resulted in all English football clubs being placed under an indefinite ban by UEFA from all European competitions (lifted in 1990-91), with Liverpool being excluded for an additional 3 years, later reduced to 1, and fourteen Liverpool fans found guilty of manslaughter and each sentenced to three years' imprisonment. The disaster was later described as "the darkest hour in the history of the UEFA competitions"

You can't abdicate ALL responsibility because it was someone else doing the pushing !

It WASN'T an "accident" that they were pushing - it was a deliberate (selfish, callous) act (and YOU used the words "out of control").
