I wonder how the club are getting on with the investigation?
Wouldn't surprise me if it was quietly dropped and was just a reaction to all of the stupid events last weekend at Brum etc

Such an emotive subject Dave and people more learned than me have opposing views. I don’t pretend to know what it must have been like for soldiers that were there, stressful to say the least. It’s a known fact that some of the protesters were members of the IRA.
The fact remains though that the vast majority of people there were not armed or indeed members of a terrorist organisation. And senior army officers at the time now admit themselves that monumental mistakes were made by their soldiers.
All I would say is this. If my son or daughter went on a match to protest about their civil rights and ended up shot in the back by the security forces, I’d dedicate my life to trying to secure justice for them, no matter how many years had passed.

Just wanted to add, the reports into the shootings state that many of the victims were shot in the back, some while crawling away and one victim was shot in the head while attempting to help someone else who was wounded. He was waving a white handkerchief at the time of his shooting.
We go back to crimes committed 70 odd yrs ago and we say prosecute the b**tards.
But a lot of people say these men shouldn't be, and that's only going back 40 odd years.
How do we justify not prosecuting them? My first instinct was to say no way should they be done.
Then I ask myself why?...And answer because they were doing their job/ following orders etc......
This is different in that it turned into a riot I believe unless I've got that wrong. The IRA were present you can bet on it,
and again I believe shots were fired by protesters.
But your second post really makes you think/realise how and where they were shot.....dunno just dunno

That’s a good point.
On the subject of James McClean, what are people’s thoughts on the decision to prosecute a paratrooper who allegedly shot two protesters in Derry on Bloody Sunday.

I did edit the post to include 'if that's what happened' as can't say I've seen all of the exchanges between the two of you.
