      18TH HILLSBOROUGH MEMORIAL SERVICE
      Apr 09, 2007 09:44:15 am
      As is the custom, Anfield will stage a memorial service to mark the 18th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster on Sunday, April 15. 
      It is organised annually by the Hillsborough Family Support Group to remember the 96 victims of the tragedy.
       
      The service will be inter-denominational and will take place on the Kop at Anfield. It will commence at 2.45pm, include a minute's silence at 3.06pm and concludes at about 3.30pm with the singing of 'You'll Never Walk Alone'.
       
      There will be readings from David Moores, Kenny Dalglish and Jamie Carragher. All are welcome to attend the service.
       
      Tickets are not required and we extend an open invitation to you to join the families, the Directors, officials and players of LFC plus thousands of fellow football fans in our annual act of rememberance. This year is expected to be exceptionally well attended and we would ask that you allow adequate time and plan to be in your seats by about 2pm.
       
      Phil Hammond, Chairman of the Hillsborough Family Support Group said: "We light a candle to remember each individual life that was extinguished prematurely and we rely upon the eternal flame of the Hillsborough Memorial to burn some light into the darkest night."

      Not sure if I'm going to the service, this year, it was disgraceful how everyone stood up and applauded the players as they entered the Kop and when they left. It's not about them, it's about the 96 and the survivors.

      Probably meet up outside the HJC shop and march to the memorial, listen to what is said and go home.

      Too true.  It's about the families and showing that even 18 years on, we still remember vividly, our fellow reds that we lost.

      It's a very important part that players current and ex are involved and creates a special unity between the fans and the club, but your main message is right.  It's not about them.

      RIP 96, YNWA.

      My thoughts are with the families of those fellow 96 supporters who were taken away 18 years ago today.

      18 years on. I can't believe it has been that long.

      I am sure the families receive some comfort that even now the determination for justice burns even stronger and the recent events at Anfield - particularly at the Arsenal FA Cup game highlight this.

      We will never forget our fellow Liverpool fans.

      My deepest thoughts are for those who have lost their loved ones on this day. And with all the Liverpool fans who are affected too.

      RIP 96

      You'll Never Walk Alone.
