they haven't been reporting that they will attend, they have been running stuff about it through the day tho, i'm sure LFC TV will have it covered

Just posted this elsewhere:


Now I realise that I'm only speaking for myself, but in my 42 years on this planet I've developed a deep bond of attachment to the institution of Liverpool football club. I'd quite happily involve myself financially in this visionary scheme that allows us as fans to express our unconditional love for the club.

People on here talk about what they as individuals will get out of the club, to paraphrase Kennedy, "don't ask the club what it can do for you, ask yourself what you can do for your club."

I've got a lot more out of the club in terms of very significant feelings of community involvement and heightened emotions than 5k can ever pay back.

If this scheme is what I think it is, the returned value of this investment is almost beyond price - it's safeguarding our community and putting in mechanisms that will pay back enormously in terms of personal happiness and emotional well-being. **** season tickets and voting rights.[/QUOTE]





Spot on mate. My two kids are 12 and 10, I llive in Ireland, we've only been to Anfield twice and they asked me would they be able to take money from their savings accounts and put it in LFC (they've more stashed than I have).


I'm not interested in dividends, tickets, returns, I remember exactly where I was sat watching telly when we played Borussia Munchengladbach, Bruges, when the tragedies of Hillborough and Heysel unfolded.

I'm not lucky enough to be born a "scouser", I'm not lucky enough to get to Anfield regularly, but I am lucky enough to have felt part of the achievements and events of this club for over thirty years as a fan.Shankly once told his players not to forget how lucky and honoured they should be to play for Liverpool and the people who supported the club.

I also am honoured to be a humble fan, and I will be very honoured to see my 5k go towards securing the club for millions more like me.

That is one great post.

I think the guys organising this are counting on those sentiments exactly, to offer an alternative method of football ownership in this country. I'm fairly certain that if we can't do it, no other premiership team has the fan base that can.
