I have just come back from a holiday in Europe and couldnt get near the internet, and there was little in the way of English speaking telly. I did see a very moving interview from a guy who saw the mayhem and horror of those events in the stands at Hillsborough – Bruce Grobbelaar. His account of what happened would surely haunt any goalkeeper, and i watched with sorrow for his experience. Itandje was never there of course, but from one man who was, he should have borne those experiences in his heart and be mightily glad that HE will never go through it. For many of us its a Liverpool thing, and not for him. He can’t take back what he did, and he should go away quietly.
On another matter, i would so dearly like to thank the boys for a breathless and passionate match against Chelsea the other day. That 1 last goal was just beyond their grasp, and the papers the next day were full of LFC shirts and how brave they were. I watched a German station airing the game live, but i could understand the excitment felt all the same. That feaky goal of Drogba’s was the killer, but even so, if it was not for his diving and the subsequent free kicks, it should have still been win-able. He is a disgrace, and i am still seathing about it. To top it all, he went for the Oscar at the death and i nearly demoed the tv. Its 2 years running now, and i guess Chelski deserve a 2nd crack for it! But Drogba – he deserves hospital food. Sorry to sound so bitter, you football fans.
Wish you all the best Jim.

What an absolute idiot, I havent seen the images of Itandje taking the p*ss but it no doubt shows a clear level of immaturity and dis respect. No matter where you come from there is no doubt that within 2 minutes of joining Liverpool any player will start to understand the huge level of grief that still surrounds the tragic events of 20 years ago so to show disrespect like Itandje has done is nothing short of career suicide.

What I hope happens next is that Itandje meets with the families to offer his apologies and that whatever he does to resolve this situation is accepted. What I dont want to see happen at this club is the start of a public witch hunt of the player, its just not the Liverpool Way.
