Police officers were told to put the blame for Hillsborough on "drunken, ticketless Liverpool supporters", the inquest into the disaster has heard.
Ex-inspector Clive Davis told the inquest jury he recalled a briefing given by Ch Supt Terry Wain two days after the tragedy.
Mr Davis said he was told by his boss to attend the meeting as it was a good opportunity to get noticed.
Ninety-six Liverpool fans died after crushing at the 1989 FA Cup semi-final.
Mr Davis said he worked as an inspector in the force's research and development unit in 1989 and shared an office with his superior Ch Insp Norman Bettison.
Police HQ briefingThe jury heard Mr Davis went into work on the Monday after the disaster and Ch Insp Bettison told him about the briefing later the same morning.
Mr Davis told this inquest Ch Insp Bettison had told him it would be good for the pair to attend the meeting.
He told the hearing Ch Supt Wain opened the briefing, held on the fifth floor of South Yorkshire Police headquarters in Sheffield.
Mr Davis said: "His words were, and I can almost remember them verbatim, that 'we were going to put the blame for this disaster where it belongs: on the drunken, ticketless Liverpool fans'.''
The inquests, held in Warrington, Cheshire, continue.
