FA release strong statement after Manchester United fan arrested for shirt appearing to mock Hillsborough disaster

The Football Association has strongly condemned the actions of a man appearing to mock the Hillsborough disaster at Saturday's FA Cup final between Manchester United and Manchester City.

Metropolitan Police confirmed they had taken a man into custody on suspicion of a public order offence after pictures emerged on social media of an individual wearing a Manchester United shirt with words ‘Not Enough’ printed on the back above the number 97.

It’s alleged the shirt was a direct reference to the number of Liverpool supporters whose lost their lives due to events at the FA Cup semi-final against Nottingham Forest at Hillsborough in April 1989.
