Watching it all unfold on the TV & hoping the an ex schoolmate of mine Ian 'Ronnie' Whelan wasn't caught up in it all but sadly he was. RIP.

I still visit the lads' grave as he's buried near my father.

I was at work and first we heard there was a problem on the radio, then we put the tv on and watched it unfold. A collegue was in bits as her sons were there and she didn't know if they were okay. We sent her home. I have relatives who follow the team but wasn't sure if they were there or not - lots of phone calls and not much work done that day. Thankfully our loved ones survived, but still feel the shock and pain for those who didn't.

I was only 6 at the time, but still vividly remember watching the scenes unfold on TV praying that my uncles who were at the game would be alright.

Thankfully they were, but 96 others were not so lucky. Our thoughts are with the families of the victims at this time.

RIP. Justice for the 96.

[quote="Bob Paisley":y3z7f3as]A lot of teams beat us, do a lap of honour and don't stop running. They live too long on one good result. I remember Jimmy Adamson crowing after Burnley had beaten us once and that his players were in a different league. At the end of the season they were.[/quote:y3z7f3as] [quote="WireFanatic II":y3z7f3as]Why, if it isn't Catalancs, RLFANS answer to a question no-one asked![/quote:y3z7f3as]:5414.jpg



As someone who was at the game and caught in the crush outside the gates it's obviously a day I'll never forget.

Rest in Peace those who will never be forgotten.

Quote: Warrington Wolf "I appreciate this site is for rugby league, however, this is sport and by looking at a few of the regulars on this site, there are a lot of Liverpool fans who post on here.
Please think of the people who went to watch a sporting event and never returned.
I was sat in the lounge watching the events unfold as a 16 year old lad in shock, where were you at this time? And what was you doing?
LEST WE FORGET 96'"


I lost a good mate at Hillsborough, to him and all the other 95, Rest in Peace. An awful tragedy, that must never happen again.

Good on you mate. He was a great lad wasn't he? - he's sorely missed to this day. I shall be visiting Fox Covert very soon to pay my respects.

I was only a kid when it happened, I remember it happening but obviosuly the magnitude of it didn't hit home if you get me.

I must admit, I've welled up a few times today listening to folk caught up in it talking about it. As much as I try to think what it must have been like to be caught up in it, I don't think my mind can comprehend the sheer panic that those people must have been going through.

It makes me feel numb that 96 people left their homes that day to go and watch the team that they love, Mums, Dads, Kids, just as we do every week, yet they never returned home & never got to see them again. I find the whole thing very humbling & it's a great persepctive to our own personal plights.

I listened to a piece on the Radio tonight driving home and 1 part of it struck me. It was the mum who lost the 2 girls that was talking and she had gone through how she had gone to the hospital and identified the girls and then she talked about the journey back to the hotel in London and how she kept staring into the back of the car and 1 line cut me up.

'Here we where driving back as just a couple yet we had left home that morning as a family'

I just can't comprehend going through the same thing and having to deal with all the emotions and grief that go along with that, just how did / do they cope?

Until reading the Guardian today I never realised that four of the 96 fans that died that fateful day were from Warrington.
