Yep, it's just so sad, so terribly sad, that she's had to wait 23 years to have that feeling. I've only been alive 25 years, and to think, for the majority of that time she and so many others have had to endure this, it's soul destroying.
That's why there simply has to be some sort of inquiry and criminal proceedings to follow. At the very least that's manslaughter, and somebody has to be culpable for that.
BREAKING NEWS

David Cameron now asked about Kelvin Mackenzie who is still being employed by the BBC - says he "hopes he stands up to his responsibilities"
He won't of course. Because he's a massive jowly lowlife festering sore of cunt.
The pressure must be on the BBC though.
Might not really seem the time to consider it but am email campaign to the powers that be there may be more effective now than ever before.

To Woland, Sean and anybody else who was there or to anybody who was directly affected by that day... Thinking of you all today, and hope that this brings some small comfort that now, today, finally, the rest of the world knows what you have always known and what far too few people chose to believe. I can't imagine what you've all gone through over the past 23 years - it destroys me, and I only watched it on tele - but know that you have millions of mates that you don't know, that will always support and help you all in any way they can... YNWA.
Its a staggering amount of paperwork.
1422 BST: Raju Bhatt, the lawyer specialising in miscarriages of justice, tells Tony Barrett of The Times that there is additional material that is “crying out for scrutiny”, but it is up to individual government departments to decide how to take it forward. The Hillsborough Independent Panel will be dissolved at the end of this month, having published its report, and won’t be continuing to pursue additional oral evidence and witness statements.
Thanks mate. Means a lot. Trying to stay at work through this but keep welling up. one emotion after another smacking me.
I think I would prefer him to live his natural life with the shame of it haunting his every miserable moment.
That would require the cunt to have some shame though Jack
Considering I wasn't involved, I could never begin to imagine how the people, their families and indeed the people from the city in general have felt for the past 23 years. But having been reading up on the stories of the past few days, watching the documentaries and indeed the events of today, it's very hard not to get emotional about the whole thing.
Also, Woland and Sean, you have my utmost respect for what you've gone through, and any other SCMers that were affected by all of this. I hope after 23 years this will help to heal some wounds.
Forget all the bickering we do constantly between each other. Even though I'm across the water, it's days like this that make me feel really proud to be a Liverpool supporter.
YNWA.

Absolutely - a massive job and, I would imagine, an upsetting one at times.
As an 18 year old, I probably came pretty close to losing my life in the crush within 15 feet of those terrible blue fences. My friend, David, who drove us to Sheffield that day didn't make it. He was just 19.
This morning's reports merely confirm what we knew all along however the findings that 41 Liverpool fans should have been saved is rather hard to read. Perhaps David was one of them.
Whether in this life or beyond, Duckenfield and company will have to pay for what they did.

I've never been able to talk about my experiences at the time, but when the news came out today I burst into tears and suddenly realised what all these years have done to us all. I'm just in awe of those who had the strength to organise and fight for so long with such dignity and passion. As Larkin put it, what survives of us is love, and the persistence of that in the city is maybe the finest tribute to those we've lost.
