āHillsborough and other hooligan related eventsā Martin Tyler
@BBCr4today - please correct that.
"Hillsborough and OTHER hooligan related incidents"
Exceptionally crass comments from Martin Tyler on
@BBCr4today - a man who should know much better.
Even now, people whose careers are built on football still spread these foul smears. I hope there'll be an apology sharpish.
Understand Liverpool have invited both BBC News and Sky Sports to meet with representatives of the club re: Martin Tyler's Hillsborough comments.
The aim is to discuss the ongoing need for constant vigilance to ensure accurate commentary & narrative around the issue.

āThe governorās trying to overthrow the results of a fair and free election⦠Iām the twice duly-elected State Attorney for Hillsborough County, and the governor signing something with a pen or a crayon doesnāt change that.ā

Martin Tyler effectively calling Hillsborough a "hooligan event" today on the radio.
We thought he was a bit out of touch and past it, but that's just disgusting and insensitive. He should be sacked, regardless of any "apology". Completely tasteless.
Interview on
@BBCr4today
We regret that we did not robustly challenge Martin Tyler on a comment which appeared to link Hillsborough & hooliganism. Martin has since apologised for the comment & clarified that these were separate examples & he did not intend to conflate the two.
We regret our presenter Adrian Chiles didn't challenge Jonathan Goldberg QC's appalling slander of Liverpool fans at Hillsborough in 2021. We regret we didn't challenge Martin Tyler's untruths today about Hillsborough. We regret, we apologise, but we do not improve our journalism
https://t.co/4WRwdHEoCwAutocrat Ron Desantis installs Susan Lopez as Hillsborough State Attorney, after he unconstitutionally removed elected Democrat Andrew Warren. Lopez was appointed by Desantis as a County Judge last year.
https://t.co/40Rg8b3yhu@BBCNewsPR @BBCr4today "... Hillsborough and other hooligan related events" is exactly what he said, so his 'clarification' is actually a lie isn't it?
'We weren't that long after Hillsborough, and other hooligan-related issues as well'.
@LFC this man should not be allowed back in our ground. I do not accept that he did not mean to link them. I have lived with scars of Leppings Lane. Comments like this that have made it worse.
Martin Tyler referred to Hillsborough as a hooligan related incident on BBC this morning
Scum
Ron DeSantis suspended Hillsborough state attorney Andrew Warren for refusing to send women to prison for having an abortion!š²
Florida deserves better than this dangerous, cruel, Authoritarian Governor!
Elect CHARLIE CRIST
@CharlieCrist Governor!

https://t.co/ljXCLLBhHyDisgusting comments from Martin Tyler this morning on BBC Radio 4 where he said "Hillsborough and OTHER hooligan related incidents."
Martin Tyler should be sacked by Sky ASAP š”š”

https://t.co/jDOVarkTdzMartin Tylerās words about Hillsborough on
@BBCRadio4 are unforgivable and disgusting. There was absolutely no attempt to correct him. After decades of fighting disinformation the families of the 97 and thousands more who are still battling today deserve more. Apology please
@BBC 
Itās really simple. Just donāt say the word Hillsborough at all. Unless you are using it to further educate that itās sacred,
loaded with deep gravitas,pain,hurt. A moniker of state abuse.If you are not, if youāre throwing it about to make wider point - Take it out of your mouth
@ShelaghFogarty @BBCr4today @BBC4today Martin Tyler should be sacked from his job. He hates Liverpool so to reference quote."Hillsborough and other hooligan related events" is not only offensive to the people of Liverpool, but shows his utter contempt for those families who lost loved ones.š”

Hillsborough. Again.
Just block, please. They don't need 're-educating'. They're just cunts and shit stirrers.
Not forgiven. The quote was āHillsborough and OTHER holligan related events.ā The other CLEARLY links the two.
https://t.co/2KGHVXzryT@kelvmackenzie @KayBurley For clarity - a man famous for editing the Sun and it's Hillsborough lies about Liverpool fans and for being forced to reisgn over racist comments about Ross Barkley
He literally said:
āHillsborough and other hooligan related incidentsā
#sackmartintyler
https://t.co/XpFqH4bpzrIām sorry but my brotherās legacy isnāt to keep making money for people.
My brother is NOT a brand!
So anybody wanting to use #Hillsborough 97 people to make money, please remove my brother from it.
My brother didnāt die to raise money for charities! Iām sick of it!
"Football was in a bit of a crisis at that time. We weren't long after Hillsborough and OTHER hooligan related issues as well"
Tyler wasn't taken out of context to say 'other' means that he regards Hillsborough as a hooligan event. Stop making allowance for him, he hates us.
And again I ask - .
@LFC are you going to stand up for our own fans and make it clear that #Hillsborough was not a hooligan related incident?
Are you going to make it clear that this use of that language will not be tolerated?
Education is key.
Solidarity is essential!
#JFT97
Itās the 25th anniversary of this iconic football image.
Paolo Di Canio arrives at Hillsborough - and is greeted by Benny Carbone with an uncooked pizza from Asda.
PR in the 90s. Fucking tremendous.
https://t.co/FwegyanGbu@kelvmackenzie @KayBurley Says the man who ran the lying campaign about hillsborough and glorified the war in the Falklands. GOTCHA.
@silverrich39 @stiptop1 Starmer will keep his promise on that subject Rich, in the same way he kept the promise he made to the people of Liverpool while running for the Leadership, when he said he wouldn't talk to
The Sxx rag paper because of Hillsborough. He's a political opportunist, nothing more
@ShelaghFogarty @BBCr4today Listened to the clip. Tyler paused after he said Hillsborough, and he said āissuesā not āeventsā. He also said āas wellā.
