Roberto Martinez gives wonderful speech at Hillsborough memorial

This is worth the five minutes.

Alex Livesey

Last year, Bill Kenwright represented Everton at the Hillsborough memorial, giving a great speech in remembrance of the 96 who passed 24 years earlier. This year, Roberto Martinez took the mic for the club and, on the 25th anniversary of that terrible day, recounted what it was like to be a 15-year-old boy in 1989 and recognized the fight for justice ever since.

It was beautiful.
