I think theres a ground in france where the cage has a roof on it too,

There was problems in france a few years back in a champions league game involving Man Utd where too many fans got penned into a small space, then the french police decided to try and calm them down by firing Tear Gas.

Unbelievable

When will people ever learn that sometimes, just sometimes, the fans aren't the ones to blame.

Yeah that was shocking i remember that

Aye, we were playing Lille. Shocking that UEFA allow grounds like that to stage such big matches.

The inquiry into the disaster led by Lord Chief Justice Taylor established that main cause was a failure of police crowd control.

"Accountability has always lain with South Yorkshire Police. The Taylor report was quite clear in where blame lay," said the force chief constable.

"South Yorkshire Police fully accept their responsibility for the Hillsborough disaster.

"The force knows where it went wrong in a flawed operation and the leadership issues that led to the deaths of so many people."

Lets not forget why the fences were there in the first place.

Hooliganism was not a factor on that day but the previous 20 years or so and the way football supporters were looked at by the rest of society (and in particular by the police) was the ultimate cause of the tragedy.

I'm not disagreeing with that. My point is that despite seeing what can happen at games with cages, these countries have done nothing to rectify it.

That would be the s*n

No ultimate cause was the police opening the gate to let fans into the already full central pens instead of directing them to the side ones with space in.

Did anybody attend today at Anfield? It seems very important to quite a few of you and rightly so.

I couldn't make it today to be honest I don't know if I could of made it through all of it, only saw the end part on tv and that was enough to set me off.

People weren't penned into a small space at that Lille game. There was loads of room to the left of the United end - everyone just entered the stand and stood in the middle. With no stewarding to move people around to the empty sections of the stand, everyone just kept piling into the middle and down to the front.

The fences themselves weren't the problem. Inadequate emergency exits in those fences and poor policing and stewarding were the problems.

I also wish people would stop mentioning ticketless supporters. The number of ticketless fans who had turned up was minimal and not a contributing factor. It's easy to believe the myth, though.

Indeed and if it had happened in Spain or France and not Sheffield we would not have done anything either.
