I noticed our home game against Villa is at an odd time and worked out it is due to the Hillsborough commemoration. Will there be a banner? I'd give. Kinda shows Palace have some solidarity with the Premiership teams around them. Maybe we've done this before? Thoughts?
So I manage a Workshop which provides a safe learning environment for blokes struggling with PTSD and other mental health issues. Being a Palace fan isn't listed yet. |

As long as we do one for the Bradford fans & one to commemorate the victims of Heysel as well, then I'm in.

Not for me. A terrible tragedy commemorated regularly but one that seems to supercede all others. A great point about Heysel aswell by Jimenez...the terrible tragedy that liverpool never like to mention.

The late start and silences that will be a part of it will be enough. no more.

Will it be safe to attend a football match under the auspices of our wonderfully inept police force? The only banner I would subscribe to will be one asking for a more efficient and honest police force. Will they ever apologise and make real recompense for their terrible display at Hillsborough on that infamous day?

I am sorry but I couldn't care less if it happened to us hardly anyone wouldn't take any notice. Ill participate in the silence but I wont pander up to it anymore then that.

It could've been any team's fans, including us.

It could've been any team's fans, including us. And what about Heysel, Bradford et al? The only reason this is taking any importance is because its currently in the news. If anything at all, there should be a protest against sh1tty policing should there not?

It's "taking importance" as you put it because it's 25 years ago this month and the new inquest is beginning. As football fans we should support the Hillsborough campaigners because it could've been any of us and if it was us, I'd want other fans to support us. Agree the policing of the event should be looked at, which it will be during the course of the inquest. For EastEndPalace to say he "couldn't care less" that 96 people died at a football match is worrying for all fans, imo.

However, a banner is way too extreme. Is a minutes silence not enough? Surely the purpose of the minutes silence is to show respect, and a banner would just be an upgrade of this- like saying "ooh we can be more respectful than you". There's simply no point to it. Do you think the families of those who died will really care if Crystal Palace have a banner or not? A minutes silence throughout football is completely sufficient to indicate that the families have the support of most football fans.
