BlueMazza 0 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Was Alan Davies justified in his comments about Liverpool refusing to ever play on April 15th? He has since tried to donate £1000 to the Hillsborough charity, which they have rejected... Thoughts? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GovanAllan 0 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Blown all out of proportion IMO. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueMazza 0 Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 Bad of me not to state my own opinion! Anyway, yes it has been blown out of proportion. I agree with what he said. He may not have termed it politely but he has a point. I think it's a bit silly of the charity to refuse his donation if I'm honest. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whosthedado 1,671 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Not like a woman not to state her opinion BlueMazza! I agree with what has been said. We play on the 2nd January almost every year. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GovanAllan 0 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 What's he said? Had a go at Liverpool fans for not wanting to play on the anniversary of Hillsborough, and not to be so touchy whenever it's mentioned, more or less. Used Rangers as an example of a club that can play a game of football on the anniversary of a disaster and still remember the people who died. Needless to say the scousers weren't best pleased by this and got up on their morally offended high horse. Davies then tried to apologise by making a donation of a grand to the Hillsborough appeal which they refused. All in all a storm in a teacup. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Ally 0 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Davies was correct imo and the charity are cutting off their nose to spite their face by not accepting his donation. Petty behaviour. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone knows it was a horrific accident but time moves on. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54andcounting 0 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 (edited) Had a go at Liverpool fans for not wanting to play on the anniversary of Hillsborough, and not to be so touchy whenever it's mentioned, more or less. Used Rangers as an example of a club that can play a game of football on the anniversary of a disaster and still remember the people who died. I wonder if he had used Juventus (Heysel) as an example instead (played 2003 CL Final v Milan) the reaction would have been different? We'll never know I suppose.
