      LFC Website Appeal for Hillsborough Tribute Photos
      Apr 07, 2010 06:47:46 pm
      As Liverpool Football Club and its supporters prepare to mark the 21st anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster on April 15 2010, we're launching a special photo appeal on Flickr by asking fans to submit a picture or pictures which either:

      1. Pay respect in some way to the supporters who lost their lives in the disaster

      2. Capture the memory of those no longer with us

      3. Capture the amazing spirit of the continued fight for justice

      4. Capture the anger / hope / feelings that surround the disaster

      The best photos submitted will be published and displayed on the Official Liverpool Football Club website on April 15 2010 - with the intention of further publicising the continued fight for justice for the 96 supporters who lost their lives at Hillsborough.

      The picture can have been taken at any point over the last 21 years but must have been taken by yourself.

      To submit a picture, simply upload it to the Official LFC Flickr Group www.flickr.com/groups/ and include the word Hillsborough as a tag.


      Here's some of the pics submitted so far:

      Very poignant pictures there, I particularly like the one of the players in a circle and the 'Justice for the 96' and Don't buy the sun' banners.

      MsG, is that the Faith Healer in the 6th one down?  He's carrying the YNWA banner.

      They've got to be your own pics by the way.

      Here's one I've just uploaded that I took at the time.

      Just as an aside, click on the link  http://www.flickr.com/photos/46430045@N02/galleries/72157623630877805/ and check out the Dave Sinclair photos, as well as those from the days after the game, the kop goal with all the scarves, there is also plenty of photos from the 80s from various different places and plenty from times of strike action, found them brilliant myself.

      Here's one I've just uploaded that I took at the time.



      Was that from around the Friday or Saturday, remember going early on the Tuesday with my mum and nan and then with my mum, dad and brother on the Saturday, while sad, the pictures are also amazing looking at the various scarves, flowers, teddies, shirts etc. Some of the messages as well that were pinned to various places on the kop left a lump in my throat!

      I don't think it is Smiggs, but it does look very like him  :-\

      Maybe if he sees this thread he will confirm either way.

      Good picture that Kenny, nowhere else would you see that happen except Liverpool, brings tears to the eye just looking at that.  :(

      Some of the pictures on the link that HR posted really did send a shiver through me.

      Some great pics capturing the emotions there.

      Yeah me too, good picture that

      Friday it was I think mate. And agreed about how powerful it was. I left my scarf on the Kop as well.
