Hillsborough.

I know this is a few days late and this subject is very emotive for Liverpool fans but I don't think the Utd chants were aimed at the Hillsborough disaster, really don't. The release of 96 balloons on Sunday will be a nice tribute. And I hope there is no applause. It should be silence. That is more fitting for the deceased. When Bob Paisley died, I think the next match for Liverpool was against United at OT. There was a minutes silence in his memory before the game which was impeccably observed. That's how it should be and I believe Utd fans will fully respect Hillsborough on Sunday.

"The only thing about a minute's silence is that there's always the risk of some prat ruining it, wheras a minute's applause should drown out anything untoward."
I couldn't disagree more Kerosene, and I think you'll know who I'm getting at here. If some clubs have "fans" that cannot respetfully observe a minute's silence, a whole sixty seconds), then let them be shown up for what they reallyare.
This trend of applause does not mark a token of respect in the way I believe we should, although that, as with all things, is highly subjective and opne to interpretation. The Rangers v Queen of the South game on Tuesday night had a perfectly observed minute's silence where, despite not particularly liking the loveable Scouse larrakins, I had a lump in my throat thinking about the relatives of the deceased.

My uncle Ron was a steward at Hillsborough when the tragedy happened. He was able to show a doctor from the Wednesday end, through the tunnels to help any who could be saved.
When my uncle Ron died in '95, from prostate cancer which spread to his lymph glands, several people from the Wednesday officials came to his funeral and left touching tributes. I will always be grateful
