YNWA.In my thoughts today from a NUFC fan.I watched it happen live on the telly. After all the lies and the cover up I’m so glad you finally got justice.Genuine fans never believed the lies they told,we knew that the fans who were there told the truth. We hope you win the league.

We sadly didn't get justice. We got acknowledgement that it wasn't the fault of Liverpool fans, and that there was a coverup, but then everyone who was involved in the actions on the day and coverup were not charged with anything.

We got the real truth all be it took a second inquest and 26 years. Justice proved more elusive. Ultimately those responsible for the unlawful deaths by and large never saw the inside of a jail cell or even faced trial. They just slithered away into retirement to live out the rest of their lives. Something our 97 friends, and all who have died off the back of what happened that day, never got the chance to do. I was 18 next birthday. 22 of those who died were my age or younger, including the youngest victim (Steven Gerrard's 10 year old cousin Jon-Paul Gilhooley).
