No-one is saying that everyone had a ticket and no-one is saying that every PC or WPC was negligent or altered their original statements. It was a disaster and there is evidence of a systematic cover-up involving SOME of those in authority.

At the risk of playing Devil's Advocate I do often wonder why the same amount of energy was not given to prosecuting those responsible for the Heysel Disaster.
It's as if that has been conveniently brushed under the carpet since Hillsborough, like as if the body count at the latter far outweighs the former.
The deaths at Heysel came about as a result of deliberate acts of violence.
I'm sure (abhorrent though the actions of some have been) the Police in Sheffield that day did not set out with the express aim of putting members of the public in danger.

Chilldoubt, re Heysel, prosecutions were brought. Some interesting information in this link.

I can't believe some people's views on this subject. Have they got hearts? If there proves to be spying or any other cover-ups, then it has to be investigated and the guilty brought to justice. If one of the 96 was a relative of yours, you would pursue the truth to the grave. Good luck to anyone seeking justice.

My son is dead and there is nothing that i c an do to bring him back.
There has been an enquiry and the police have been implicated.
My son is still dead.
More "evidence" is unearthed and will be acted upon.
My son is still dead.
I have other sons, a wife and a living to earn to support them and this may well be impaired by the crusade to find the truth that is eating away at me.

Indeed there were Saki, paltry though they were:

From the link:
For many years, Liverpool ’s response to Heysel was woefully inadequate. I was shown a copy of the club’s official yearbook for 1985/86. There were two articles about the tragedy on page three, but they were both of the “Let’s put this behind us, improve the matchday Anfield atmosphere and look to restore the club’s good name” variety. There was no direct reference to what had happened. There was no hint of an apology. Later there was a round-up of the previous European Cup campaign, in which 1985/86 was identified as a “watershed” because it would be Liverpool ’s last for some time.
Over time, there was a recognition that more – much more – needed to be done. In 2000 the city of Liverpool officially commemorated the anniversary of Heysel for the first time – on the suggestion, incidentally, of Peter Millea, the chairman of Liverpool City Council’s Hillsborough disaster working party.
mikey4444, I'm not denying that what took place in Sheffield was criminal, far from it. Unlike you though, I recognise the need for justice in regards to bith disasters.
Yours is the kind of attitude that was seen in the red half of Merseyside for far too long, as is borne out in the link. Some at least are prepared to stand up and admit the clubs failings in regards to Heysel but others, as I suggested, deem it insignificant in regards to Hillsborough by virtue of nothing more than a 1/3 body count.
