    I think you might be slightly wrong regarding the Hillsborough event. This was all down to policing and stewarding. Not the fans/people of Liverpool.

    Toxteth Riots - Point taken, but what about Bradford race riots ?

    Rhys Jones - Damilola Taylor.

    For everyone you mention, there are just as many in other major cities.
    But Liverpool is a small city.

      I know it is, just for every incident you can find a similar one in Manchester/Bradford/Leeds/Birmigham and London

        Nope I'm also wrong
        No, that would be a "JUATWTTAOTMTFIAW".

        You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

          Hillsborough was caused by fans rushing the turnstiles and not wanting to pay, YES the police dealt with the situation poorly but the fact remains it was STARTED by Liverpool fans. Is there a crime as shocking as Bulger or Rhys? Infact what's more shocking about Rhys murder is the fact that 'salt of the earth' scousers are not prepared to name names to the police out of some form of "loyalty".

            Cycling down the road, minding your own business. Someone jumps out of a car and stabs you to death. I'm sure there's a bit of background to this story, but probably not too much in this day and age...

            in fact it was not random - the cyclist was known to the alledged perpetrators.

              Population of Liverpool 439,473
              Population of Brum 977,087
              Population of Greater Manchester 2,482,328
              Population of Greater London 7,172,091

              Source office of national statistics figures from last census

              So any crime in Liverpool appears worse because of a smaller population

                lets just say it is true(which I doubt). So not wanting to pay should be punished by death?

                  No it wasn't. You need to get your facts right as this is a sensitive issue for many people. It was caused by the Police opening the gates, standing instead of seating and fencing that would not allow the excess to flow onto the pitch.

                    Bollocks, it had nothing to do with fans not wanting to pay and get in for free.

                    The police managed the fans very badly, the stadium design was poor.

                    Yes fans rushed, but the police filtered them badly, meaning they missed the kick-off.

                    It wasn't started by the liverpool fans, but yes they played a part.

                    At the time people were amazed that they had given Liverpool the smaller of the stands, but to blame the fans is totally wrong and incorrect.
