Hillsborough 20th Anniversary

Title: Hillsborough 20th Anniversary

Wednesday, April 15th will mark the 20th anniversary of one of footballs most tragic events. It is of course the Hillsborough disaster where Liverpool fans were crushed against barriers and fellow fans after stewarding and policing at the area let their guards down.

The FA Cup game between Nottingham Forest and Liverpool stopped mid play, as many thought rioting or crowd troubles had arisen, yet no one could have imagined that those people hoping fences, climbing up walls and desperately trying to escape the mass of bodies were trying to save their lives.

One particular memory I will always hold is that of people being carried away from the crowds on the advertisement boards lined around the pitch, which were used as make-shift stretchers.Below is a list of those who will be remembered during the memorial service. Liverpool FC will be holding a special service at Anfield where everyone is welcome to attend.
