Flog - Hillsborough

This is a quick one.

I couldn't let yesterday pass without some sort of comment, what with thousands of people turning out not only at Anfield, but at Hillsborough and in Nottingham, to remember the 96 who died at Hillsborough. I'm always one for an epic statement of sorts, and there's not alot that will move me to tears that has not directly affected me, but the Kop screaming choruses of 'Justice for the 96'- just as they did against Arsenal 2 years ago in the FA Cup quater final- brought up emotion I don't think I've ever really felt before. Their voices heard around Liverpool, the anger in which it was directed was mind blowing enough, but for that anger to be brought out of the horrendous and tragic events of that day shows just how much there is still to be said about Hillsborough.

Probably just some of the many quotes from last night's news coverage that should make us all take a moment.

'What gets me the most is how he has been gone for longer than he was ever alive.'

'I drove to that game a Mother and a Wife. And I came back as neither.'

And probably the wisest of them all from John Aldridge:

'It's just football.'

Because it is.
