I find it staggeringly incomprehensible how a man so deeply connected to LFC as Souness was would screw up so badly as to sell a story to the Scum. The timing of the article on the third (I think?) anniversary of Hillsborough was, I'm certain, all down to that asshat McKenzie and I'm sure he knew exactly what he was doing by running the story on that date. But still, that's not to excuse Souness from selling to them in the first place.
But nor does it cancel out how he speaks so highly of Liverpool and doesn't ever try to get pedantic digs in just to please his employers (like I think Carra does at times). I watched his interview the night we won the league and he was full of pride and love for the club; you could just see it in him.
People are complicated and we all fuck up. Souness clearly still loves LFC and that, for me, is what matters.
