One of Liverpool’s most iconic banners referencing the long battle for Hillsborough truth and justice is to take up permanent residence at Anfield.
A flag bearing the message ‘We Climbed The Hill In Our Way’ has been a regular sight on the Kop over the last decade or so and pays tribute to all who campaigned for many years to change the establishment narrative and uncover the truth following the April 1989 disaster which saw 97 Liverpool supporters unlawfully killed and thousands of survivors traumatised in Europe’s worst ever sporting disaster.
The wording is a lyric from Pink Floyd’s 1971 track ‘Fearless’, which features a sample of the Spion Kop at Anfield in full voice, and was designed to commemorate the unstinting efforts of the countless people who fought against seemingly-insurmountable odds to change the public record of what happened at Hillsborough and overturn the initial flawed inquest verdicts of accidental death.
