Sun journalists were also barred from a press conference.
Former Liverpool players and fans of the team have reignited calls for a boycott the Sun newspaper after the Hillsborough disaster inquest jury ruled that all 96 fans were unlawfully killed.
Four days after the Hillsborough disaster, The Sun ran a front page with the headline ‘THE TRUTH’ citing fans’ hooliganism as a contributing factor in the 96 deaths.
The paper claimed Liverpool fans stole from victims, urinated on police officers and blocked rescue efforts.
An inquest jury ruled today, 27 years after the disaster, that every death was unlawful and exonerated all the fans present.
Despite the passing of nearly three decades, the ruling has laid bare how little the animosity of Liverpool fans towards the Sun has faded.
