Sports shop bosses have apologised after printing a Hillsborough slur on a Manchester United shirt.

A sick fan tricked an assistant at a Sports Direct store into printing “96 – not enough’’.





That is the number of Liverpool fans who perished in the 1989 FA Cup semi-final crush. Colm Jackson, 22, posted a photo of his shirt, which also bears the letters YSB – You Scouse Bastards – on Facebook and boasted he bought it in Manchester.

Insulted Liverpool fans threatened to boycott the chain’s five Merseyside branches.

Hillsborough family support group chairman Margaret Aspinall, whose 18-year-old son James died in the tragedy, said: “Sports Direct are worse than the guy who wanted to put it on his shirt.

“Printing that message is like inciting trouble. It’s an absolute disgrace.’’

Last night a spokesman for Sports Direct, owned by Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley, 46, said: “Sports Direct is very apologetic for this spiteful and abusive shirt.’’

Jackson added: “It was a really stupid thing to do.”
