There is a television programme tonight about it.
Fans too young to remember it should imo, watch it to learn about the tragedy and scandal that followed it.

Too young to remember it, or if I was aware at the time. I may give it a watch tonight.

A horrible day for football, a cousin from Birkenhead lost his best mate ths to day and we were staying at his parents house, can remember the numbness around the entire area for days after it
Hope the prog is good enough to fully respect what happened

Remember looking forward to the the game on TV...wanst many games on TV back then; i distinctly remember thinking "looks like the hooligans are at it again"...then a few minutes later you can sense it was more than that, the players were getting involved and then gradually it all became what we know it as today a horrible disaster.

Actually, I am wrong, rereading my post it was so much more than me a horrible day for football, it was the city, residents, families who suffered more, my bad

This incident was one of the worst I’ve ever seen in football, maybe the worst.
The corruption after it made me change my way of thinking about people in power, not just in
Football - and certainly not in a positive way.

Bradford fire tops it for me sports wise. If people think Hillsborough gets ignored.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah good shout actually.
Remember watching some footage of that a few years back
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Can’t remember if it was when the results were coming in on “world of sport” or “grandstand” but they were showing footage of the fire as it was happening, remember that policeman trying to put fire out on that old man’s coat as he was being led away
