No one outside of the Liverpool fanbase is going to take any griping about it seriously. People need to let this kind of shite go, especially if they are American hipsters who arbitrarily picked Liverpool as their favorite soccer team more than a decade after the event occurred.


Dunkins obviously didn't do their research, and picked the most self righteous and victim playing fans to market to.

I'm not going to comment on the fans right to be offended or not because I don't really care or have an opinion. I'm not a Liverpudlian and I have no link to Hillsborough so my perspective doesn't really matter.

What I think would bother me from the club's perspective is that a global marketing partner didn't take the time to understand the club enough to anticipate that it could blow up in their faces.

Yep. Pool fans love to play up that nauseating victim routine and DD just walked right into it without just a little research on the symbolism of the crest.
