Steven Gerrard "huge Donation" The Hillsborough Family Support Group
http://
According to the BBC website Steven Gerrard has made a "huge donation" to the Hillsborough Family Support Group. According to Google he earns £125,000 per week so he has donated less than 80% of a week's salary, let alone including his endorsement income or bonuses. Am I the only one who thinks this isn't really that generous?

Lord Justice Taylor's interim report said
2.12.140 Further, LJ Taylor found no evidence to demonstrate that there was a 'very significant body of ticketless fans in the crowd which built up'. He also dismissed the 'slender evidence' on which the 'suggestion that fans without tickets conspired to arrive late and create such trouble as would force the police to admit them to the match' was based.

If he gives it through Gift Aid very tax efficient
that is of course not WHY he is giving it - but it helps
Should cost him under £70 000 - you know the saving is well generous - you will notice that the uppage is £30 000 and this represents 50% of his donation - and his marginal tax rate is 50%.
I am not sure if one is limited with gift aid these days in whcih case he should do one at the end of march and the second at the end of April thus spanning two tax years.
well done Stephen Gerrrard !

It is not an uncommon occurrence to have fans arrive at any quarter/semi final without tickets. That had happened many times previously and since. As part of the preparation the ground staff and the police would expect SOME fans to arrive without tickets.
The Taylor report says that ticketless fans were not in the main to blame. The exaggerated claims of 'thousands' of ticketless fans were mainly from claims in The Sun and the Sheffield Star. The source of these claims was off the record briefings from South Yorkshire police. Taylor could not find evidence that 'thousands' arrived ticketless or that the crush was caused by them.

Tickets taken on the turnstiles were collected and the 100 most suspect ones were tested forensically to see if they were forgeries. All were passed as genuine.

// The Health & Safety Executive performed a count of the number of people on the Leppings Lane terraces from photographs and turnstile data.
This painstaking piece of work concluded that the Leppings Lane terraces in their entirety were pretty much bang on capacity.
However, the two central pens were, of course, well over capacity, with pen 3 double safe capacity limits. //
