Very moving. I can't help, as a parent and a football fan to imagine myself in thier position, it must have been unbearable. Listening to what the fans and thier families went through at the time was hard watching.

But on top of all that of course you then had ordinary people, just like us, having to struggle against the establishment for nearly thirty years with politicians, police and media colluding against them. That is an absolute disgrace.

Just goes to show how corrupt the establishment is and how long a fight it takes to get justice, I read another thread on here recently about a football fan being mistreated by police and he got justice after a 5 yr fight which doesn't even come close to what these families went through but shows that even now you got a fight on your hands if injusticed by the establishment that is meant to be there to serve and uphold the law not BE the law

It was very moving. Some parts really got to me, and shows the truth wouldn't have been achieved without the families' persistence over the matter - they never gave up, and rightly so.
