They should have a statue of Thatcher to go along with their token plaque.
Her immediate decision to wipe the government's hands of establishing due process and categorising all of English football under the hooligan banner was what ultimately allowed them to file this whole Heysel incident under an "It's everyone's fault" blanket. Like others, I find it disgusting and inexplicable that the deaths of 39 innocent people were just conveniently swept under the carpet for political expediency. The FA and the whole football establishment went along with it hook, line, and sinker. And it has actually nothing to do with Everton missing out. We only compounded that problem due to boardroom incompetence and the blame there lies entirely at Evertons door.
Liverpool are a club of the most bizarre contradictions such that their double standards and hypocrisy must seem completely logical to the cult following.
Heysel and Hillsborough. Establishment vs traditional. Tory glory-hunting supporters (many of whom sneered at and still sneer at all the fuss concerning 96 Hillsborough victims) vs a supposedly working class club proud of its roots. They soak up the sycophancy of Fleet Street journalists including that filthy rag whilst maintaining faux outrage at them when it suits.
They truly are a law unto themselves.
