Thank you for posting that link Rob Thumbs Up

Justice for the Hillsborough 96 is a phrase I have struggled with.

YES there is a much better understanding of the truth leading up to the tragic results of what should should have been a peaceful enjoyable family event.

Several organisations beside SYP were lacking in their actions before, during and after the tragic event.

Should certain organisations and certain individuals be taken to 'task' for their actions before, during and after the events, YES.

Whoever was responsible for selling 10,000 tickets for a stand which holds 7,000 spectators bears a heavy responsibility and whoever was responsible for the 'cover up' and the continuining cover up should be taken to task.

Best form of 'Justice' for the Hillsborough 96? Probably that all the lessons learnt about managing public events, stadium design, crowd control, major incident response etc are learnt and put into place. This is not a static response as type of events, technology, stadium, etc are changing so the response should change with it.

The best form of 'Justice' for the Hillsborough 96 is to try and ensure that this type of tragic event never occurs again at a UK event.

the calls for "Justice" don't refer so much to the actual people responsible for the failed safety measures/organisation as much as it does the fight of the families to have the blame shifted away from the victims and back towards those who sought to cover up their own involvement and shortcomings.

The vile attempts by the Sun, S. Yorks police, "independent inquiries" and others in the years after the incident are what the calls for justice are directed towards.

No-one should have to fight for the name of their lost loved ones who were unlawfully killed. Cheers, David
