Not really something to get smug over this

Im not being smug, i was merely wondering if after all they said about Liverpool they still agree with? They seemed to jump to the conclusion that Liverpool didn't give a rats ass about the families.

 

I would never be smug over such a sensitive matter, thats just being extremely disrespectful.

No, far from it. This is not the subject to gloat over.

I doubt it, as I imagine supporter pressure has played a large part in this decision.

Do you think? Sure supporter pressure would have something to do with it, but I honestly think that they do care. When was contact made to the support group, June? It seems they thought of this well in advance, along with perhaps a few eagle eyed supporters.

 

I hope it is moved though, especially seeing as a few slots have been freed they have no reason not to surely?

I read a while back and someone posted it - that Parry was looking for a way out of this date but the possibility of a CL QF and then possibly more after that made it near impossible - now that is no longer on the cards, he's just doing what he said he would do.

LIVERPOOL are trying to move their match at Blackburn from April 15 to avoid a clash with the annual Hillsborough Memorial service at Anfield.

 

Liverpool had settled on a kick-off time of 5.15pm on the Saturday but now they are out of the Champions League are trying to switch the game.

 

Chief executive Rick Parry said: "This is an issue we were aware of right at the start of the season and that's why we contacted the Hillsborough Families' Support group last June. They said they accepted that, sadly, one day it might be an inevitability we'd have to play on April 15.

 

"Now we are out of Europe, there may be some scope to look once again but it's not just our fixtures to consider, it's Blackburn's as well and this is their home fixture. We have already been in touch with the Premier League and Blackburn to ask the question."

 

Blackburn are are expected to make a decision today.
