A Liverpool fan will always remember and will never forget the day,15 April 1989 where 96 of our "friends" left us,always and forever,The Hillsborough Disaster.Yesterday marks the 20th anniversary of the disaster.A memorial service was held at Anfield.


Over 28,000 football fans yesterday joined the Hillsborough families and players, staff and officials from Liverpool FC to pay their respects to those who lost their lives on April 15, 1989.


The families of the 96 Liverpool fans who lost their lives at Hillsborough were handed the Freedom of the City of Liverpool last night.


Hundreds of floral tributes, scarves and a variety of different football shirts were laid next to the Hillsborough memorial and tied to the Shankly Gates.

The commemoration was opened by the Bishop of Liverpool, the Rt Rev James Jones, before the 96 names were read out and a candle lit in each of their memories.

At 3:06pm, a two-minute silence was impeccably observed at the stadium and across Liverpool as the city, including public transport, ground to a halt in memory of the 96. Similar silences were held in Sheffield and Nottingham.

The bells of Liverpool's two cathedrals and civic buildings then rang out 96 times at 3:08pm.

Liverpool Lord Mayor Cllr Steve Rotheram joined Hicks in giving a rousing speech before the Mayor and Liverpool manager Benitez symbolically laid a scarf on the penalty spot in front of the Kop,and he later released 96 red balloons into the afternoon sky.
