Professor Phil Scraton, author of "Hillsborough: The Truth" and "No Last Rights: The Denial of Justice and the Promotion of Myth in the Aftermath of the Hillsborough Disaster" has allowed us to store some of his writing on the Hillsborough Disaster on our server, to allow families, survivors and fans easy access to download the documents.

Here are the first four:

Here are the transcripts of the full first report from the project, published in 1990. It was titled Hillsborough and After: The Liverpool Experience and has an extensive chapter on the treatment of the bereaved and survivors in the immediate aftermath as well as an analysis of the early media coverage. This was also the first time anyone reported the events in the gymnasium on the evening of the disaster.

The floppy disk containing the documents was recently found but the data was indecipherable - after much trial and tribulation by the computer department at Phil's university they've managed to access it but due to the aforementioned problems please excuse mistakes, alignment etc.

I've uploaded Professor Phil Scraton's latest published article to his archive on RAWK - it is the lead article in the Winter edition of the international journal, Race and Class entitled:

'The legacy of Hillsborough: liberating truth, challenging power' vol 55 (2), pp1-27.

It was launched in November at the London School of Economics to a packed audience of families, including Hillsborough families, bereaved in a range of controversial circumstances, survivors, fans, academics, lawyers and so on.

Phil has also informed us that the new and final edition of Hillsborough: The Truth is published in a couple of weeks.

Can't see a problem with that Nick from our point of view but might be worth contacting Phil Scraton as it's his work

Maybe they should just buy the book!   The number of "Who is Phil Scraton?" comments I hear...it's embarrassing how ignorant so many people are  :-[

Such an amazing body of work.

To think that it was so nearly swept under the carpet...

Morning Alan. Long time no speak eh?

What's the location/name of the other thread please? I'd like to have a read of the posts on there paying fitting tributes to a humanitarian hero.
There is nothing wrong with striving to win, so long as you don't set the prize above the game. There can be no dishonour in defeat nor any conceit in victory. What matters above all is that the team plays in the right spirit, with skill, courage, fair play,no favour and the result accepted without bitterness. Sir Matt Busby CBE KCSG 1909-1994

Are the pdf's still available?  I have tried to get the longer pieces from Inter Library loan but as you can imagine these are not commonly held in US libraries.   

thanks
I believe the only way to live and to be truly successful is by collective effort, with everyone working for each other, everyone helping each other, and everyone having a share of the rewards at the end of the day. That might be asking a lot, but it’s the way I see football and the way I see life.

Thank you for sharing this valuable resource. Professor Scraton's work on Hillsborough is crucial for understanding the truth and seeking justice.  The extensive collection of documents provides an in-depth look into the disaster and its aftermath. Kudos to him for allowing easy access to this information. It's important for everyone, especially the affected families and survivors, to have these resources readily available. Good wishes.
