Eamonn Holmes criticised after referencing Hillsborough in comments on West Ham bus attack

Sky News presenter Eamonn Holmes is under fire today after seeming to draw a comparison between last night's assault on the Man United players' bus at Upton Park and the Hillsborough disaster.

Holmes was taking part in a discussion on last night's incident, when he said: “This is going back to the '70s and to the '80s, the type of thing you were seeing that was bad about Hillsborough, for instance.” JOE has reached out to Sky News for a comment on Holmes' remarks. https://twitter.com/LivEchonews/status/730318362786598912 Unsurprisingly, people are outraged at the remarks, with calls on the presenter to apologise, and even for Sky to sack him. https://twitter.com/LfcSamdy/status/730328149754531840 https://twitter.com/Rolo__Tomassi/status/730328804695130112 https://twitter.com/Martin_Rich_91/status/730328773325918208 https://twitter.com/TweetsbyJonesy/status/730329197240037376 https://twitter.com/MsLaura_Brown/status/730325928140804097 https://twitter.com/mattlfc6/status/730329064528072704 https://twitter.com/DrNostromo/status/730327887560232961 https://twitter.com/BecciOVERTONES/status/730327773819113472 https://twitter.com/rogerpsan/status/730327270053810176
