Liverpool FC Forum

Mods, I know this is probably the wrong forum, but it will get the most views in here, and can be moved in a few days.

There have been many questions as to how why the boycott exsists, well if there ever was an idiots guidem this is it:

                                                .

A surprising number of people seem unaware of the boycott of The Sun by supporters of Liverpool Football Club. Some don't seem to know it is boycotted, others don't know why. Some people rather disturbingly know why the boycott exists but still choose to buy it.

I dont think i have ever read the sun after knowing about the boycott but never understood why.......thanks for the insight.....

this forum is brill......

For one who was unaware this post has made me sick. What normal person would even consider printing something like that.

My God that is one powerful picture... I hate that rag with all my heart... always have really... Tory rag... and to quote billy 5 times, "...It sickens me to even think of what those so called journalists were thinking when writing those lies..." hits the nail on the head.

You'll never walk alone...

My mum has a box in the wardrobe with all the papers the day after Hillsborough, I still look in that box from time to time, the papers are all yellow and old now.
But they are there for a reason a reminder, and when my son is old enough he can read it and now what lies they told.
And god spares him he can show his children, and never let the memory die.

This rag is one of the most disgusting papers that exixts.  Long before they lied about Liverpool fans, they lied to their staff, they lied then sacked them and moved location leaving hundreds on the dole.  In the last month they printed lies about an accident in Co. Donegal.  A elderly man had taken his wife to visit the roadside scene of where her friend had been killed in an accident.  Sadly the woman also was killed while laying flowers. It seems almost funny if it was'nt so sad.  Anyway what does the sun print next day.  'Husband mows wife down at friends vigil'  Absolute lies.  You see heres the problem.  The s*n has very little by way of newspaper print staff, its all controlled by computer.  They run stories without ever being aware of the full facts. Why? because its owned by a greedy little snivelling toe rag who pretends to care about people.  He courts the Bush administration and using his FOX network, lies to the American people.  Lies about weapons of mass destruction, lies about liberals taking over America, pretends to be a right wing christian and at the same time floods his sky network with pay per veiw porn channels.  He beamed christian dogma into the peoples republic of china but soon pulled the plug on that when the chinese give him a franchise for all satellite coverage in China.  He doesent care about anything but money.  Ruppert Murdock doesent care about anything except power.  He is so arogant with it that he'snow saying that he might supprt the tories in the next election.  So whats Blairs response going to be to that.  More tax incentives, a peerage, or just the continuation of a licence to print lie after lie.  I hate this paper not only because it poured distress on liverpool football clubs saddest hours, not because it indirectly influenced the deaths of countless young soldiers, and innocent Iraq's, not because it lies to sell papers.  I hate it because it is the worst of all media.  An arrogant self serving hate mongering, racist, jingoistic pile of .  It flies in the face of all the freedoms that millions of young men gave their lives for, an lie in foreign graves.  Lies stop the truth being told and as a consequence they destroy freedom[U][B]

Great post that, never a truer word spoken, I wouldn't wipe me on the rag, or the times, or any of Murdock's , pisses me off that he runs (ruined) the Prem! 

You could always boycott Sky!     

A few Liverpool fans who are from Preston no longer read that rag after I told them the truth and gave them a link to this thread, so nice one Leon.

Justice for the 96.

I am not a Liverpool supporter nor do i live in Liverpool..although i do follow you closely...I am actually a Wolves fan...and i for one agree totally with what has been posted with regard to any decent person Liverpool fan or not football fan or not buying this rag is a disgrace..What they have done is unforgivable..people have died and familys torn appart by this disaster..And they print headlines like that in a vile bid to increase sales at the expense of the people of Liverpool...I for one have never bought that paper since and never will again..And will actively encourage others to follow suit..An appology would never be any more than another cheap sales stunt....

[Kev Huyton 2006]

Yes its a good cause this topic, and I fully Support it.
But when you have Stevie G, Giving his Exclusive interviews to the NEws of the World, The Sun's "sister" paper, Re: His new Biography, then it hardly inspires confidence!

Is it time to move on?
 

[Crouchamania]

Move on? I don't think so mate. The wounds are too deep to heal. I personally will never forgive the S*n and i know hundreds of people won't either. So what if Gerrard has given interviews to the NOTW that's his business. I will never forgive and forget.

[Ciggy]

Is it time to move on?
 

I am seriously begining to have my doubts about you.

[Crouchamania]

You and me both Ciggy.
