Former Irish international and Liverpool striker John Aldridge was left fuming today after The Sun published a TV interview he did yesterday on their website. Aldridge along with the vast majority of Liverpool fans have led a boycott of the paper for its coverage of the Hillsborough tragedy in 1989.
Aldridge took to twitter today to force The Sun to take down his interview:
I'm utterly fuming that an interview I did for the TV yesterday has been HIJACKED on the social media by that RAG we don't name!!!

They took it from the Granada reports interview yesterday.Got to check wether it's legal for them to do so without my authority?
