      Archived: 20th Hillsborough Memorial Service at Anfield
      Mar 24, 2009 01:21:34 pm
      Wednesday April 15th 2009

      Still awaiting concrete details from the club, but usually people are expected to be seated at around 2pm.

      The HJC shop, just near to the ground, is usually open for you to pass in any donations.

      I sincerely hope as many Liverpool fans can make the journey to Anfield and The Kop for the 20th anniversary of the tragedy which cost the lives of 96 fellow Liverpool fans, and destroyed the lives of hundreds more of their family and friends.  To this day nobody has been made culpable for the sheer number of crimes that resulted in massive numbers of deaths that day.  If your son, daughter, brother, sister, mother or father had been killed because of sheer incompetence, then I'm sure you will agree that 20 years without any form of justice for the death of your loved one is a disgrace.

      Support the families, let's remember the fallen Liverpool fans, and let's once again prove we are the best supporters in the world - and that we will never forget.

      My dads friend Eric Hughes died on that day, he was having a pint with him the night before.

      So we'll be there again.

      Just reading the Wikipedia page about the disaster and seeing some of the pictures is just awful

      Me Uncle was at Hillsborough in 89 and although he was one of the lucky ones (if that's the right phrase) hasn't been to a match since. He can't even bring himself to go to Memorial Service and asks me to go in his place so I will be there again this year.

      Is it open to anyone just turn up etc. I would like to go and pay my utmost respect to my fellow fans who needlessly lost their lives and their long suffering families.

      Found this on you tube.  New verse for the fields of Anfield Road.

      Beside the Hillsborough flame
      I heard a Kopite mourning
      Why so many taken on that day?
      Justice has never been done
      but their memory,we'll carry on
      There'll be glory round the fields of Anfield Road

      I was talking to my Mum about it yesterday and she is 86. she said that they will never get justice as the authorities have decided that they cant afford to let the truth be told. They will be hoping that come 30years in 2019 we will have all of given up died or forgotten. The families will never forget and its our responsibility to support them when they need our support. All we can do is support them, in the end the truth as we all know it must come out and until that day comes we cant let the stand alone.

      I am trying to contact the HFSG and have emailed and left a phone message at their contact details on the official Livrerpool site but not had any joy yet.
      Anyone know a quicker or more direct way to contact them?

      Thanks in advance.

      Unfortunately i won't be able to make it but my heart goes out to the famlies who are still sufferring and to those who attended the match. I'am 17 years old and was not alive when the disaster took place but to think that in the 17 years that i have been alive, justice has failed to be served to those who passed away.

      I'm going. I have to show my support. Whether I'll be able to get the day off or not is another matter. But I'll be there.

      On a side note, it would be good if people could change their avatar on the forum this week as a show of solidarity and support to every single person who never came back home that day, their families and friends and also our fellow reds who were there that day and thankfully came home safe. I know for a fact that there's a good few members of this forum who thankfully came home from Hillsborough, but still have open scars. And it's important that we show these members that they'll never walk alone.

      For more information on which image you'd like under your username - or to add some relevant images of your own for others to use, visit this thread:

      http://www.lfcreds.com/reds/index.php?topic=16218.0

      If you are unsure about how to change your avatar, don't hesitate to contact me or a member of the forum staff. We'd be more than happy to help.
