Rejected petition Hillsborough

So shocking that the fans who caused the erection of fences after Heysel are now completely exonerated from any blame for Hillsborough!

More details

The authorities certainly have questions to answer about their initial response to the Hillsborough disaster and South Yorkshire Police should never have lied in the subsequent reports but how those fans who arrived late to the game, many without tickets have not been made to take some responsibility is beyond me. Would those innocent fans who lost their lives still been alive had it not been for those who left the pubs late and were ramming the turnstiles? I am perplexed as to how the jury could find no fault in the fans.
