I was alive then, like 6 or something, but was talking today about it at work. I don't think people of my generation and after will fully get to grips with how bad a tragedy this was, we won't fully understand as the people who understood it when it happened.
Kinda like Princess Diana. The people who lived through it, hearing it for the first time, seeing the pictures following it up on TV live as they broke the story and all the outpouring of emotion at the time and shortly after.
You know it's a big tragedy but compared to those who where able to understand and get a full grasp of how much national hurt there was bout it.
It's just a pity it takes something like this to unite football fans, and even then u still get young knobs who are just fucking clueless and as above, don't understand any of it who still use it as a mocking ground. But then, that may sound contradicting as I have dark humour myself (i.e. Jade Goody death jokes, but then I hate her).
Also the Sun are fucking stupid. That is possibly their darkest hour and I say possibly as I don't know if there is anything worse than that for a headline that they have ever done. For me personally, it is their worst.
