Even more ironic how much of a classless (unt you now look.

Pleased for the families on yesterdays findings. Also pleasing for people not fully aware of the reasons why the families of the 96 wouldn't let it lie. As Trevor Hicks said yesterday, it's not about compensation, self pity or anything else, it was about justice for the 96. Imagine having to decide which dying daughter to stay with on the pitch that day? Not ashamed to admit I cried like a baby watching the documentary on ITV the other day on hearing that sad story again.

41 ambulances couldn't gain access to the ground. 41 people COULD have been saved that day. Horrific.

I remember putting the petition on here a few months back and people signing it. Good on you, it's a good feeling to have been 0.000000000000000001% of the reason that this reached parliament. Doesn't matter how small a contribution people made by signing their name to the petition. They signed it and we can now move forward and bring the people responsible to justice.

Does anyone really believe that all of these people apologising, Irvine Patrick, Kelvin McKenzie et al are really sorry? I don't believe for one second that they are, they are only sorry for getting caught.

I'm pleased the truth is out, now I hope that the families get the justice they deserve.

I don't even believe they know why they're apologising.

Now that's all calmed down a little and before the games get underway this weekend and we all start bleating about a f---ing handshake (or not, as the case may be).....

Anyone else for an RLFans Champions League? Got a league set up on uefa.com. Use the code 946994-426729

Assuming you're from Warrington, I'm embarrassed to be from the same place as you or at least support the same rugby team. Thankfully that's probably all we've got in common.

The majority of this was what most of us already knew, but there were also some startling revelations about the extent of the cover-up, and especially the amount of victims that could potentially have been saved. Let's hope justice can now follow the truth, and that those responsible are held accountable for this terrible tragedy.

I said it would be ironic, i never said it was what i was hoping. As i've said since, it's good the facts are now there for all to see. But don't let that get in the way of your ranting.

And no, i'm from Runcorn
