There was no need for the post with the smiley. Tacky grief tourism.

That's essentially the point I was trying to make, though perhaps I did it a bit more bluntly than was necessary.

I wasn't apologising for my original point, which I stand by, just the way I presented it.

Not that it's relevant, but most of my family are scousers and Liverpool fans, Hilsborough is ingrained into their soul there, as you would imagine.

I don't think I've sacrificed tact and decorum by suggesting that adding a sad shaking head graphic to the original post may not be in the best possible taste.

no and i agree for what it's worth.
but going down this route generally leads to someone going "so fucking what" and then somone (you as it could turn out) going "oi cunty"

in a nutshell - bad things happened, some choose to put this in a way with a sad emoticon and some choose to be silently respectful.

remember watching it as it unfolded on tv.
a real tragedy for football, which played the major part in changing the way fans watch the game at grounds today.
