Every past has its story, every tragedy has its tears to drop for.
Today is the 56th anniversary of Munich disaster where young talented Manchester United boys left forever. As twenty-three of 44 air passengers on board the aircraft died within the disaster. As Liverpool has their own story of Hillsborough disaster, these two giant arch rivals should share the grief they hate the most.
I am a Liverpool supporter and would like to show my sincerest respect to those who lost their lives. Only genuine football supporter who do appreciate and respect to others tragedies.
Manchester United once again deliver their sincerest gesture to the 96 Liverpool supporters of Hillsborough tragedy when they came to Anfield last season. A bucket of 96 red roses given by Sir Bobby Charlton, 96 numbered on the back of tracksuit tops, and 96 balloons released into the sky by both skippers, Ryan Giggs and Steven Gerrard should. It was such a great football gestures I ever seen (note to mention that Everton FC face the same feeling when they commemorate the tragedy)
The tragedies that have affected Manchester United and Liverpool have made both clubs bigger and stronger with a massive following and those tragedies make up part of the tapestry that forms the remarkable history of both clubs.
Should you not mock these things. Ever.
The Busby Babes will never walk alone.
