My little fellow kopite. Been coming the match since she was 6. 21 now. I’m so proud of you. My daughter Kallies tribute to the grandad she never met #jft97

My Dad died at Hillsborough, he loved watching the reds, a nice man. He drove a taxi, a lorry, & was a salesman. A Dad of 2. A good Dad, took me the match. They took my Dad from me. They took me too. I hate April. I hate what it’s done to me. I miss you Dad. #lfc #ynwa #JFT97

@charlhennessy1 @HillsboroughSu1 Obviously a conversation needs to take place with the club again!!

Nothing as far as I know love. My understanding is that Anfield is private property and therefore, permission needs to be granted by the club if ashes are to be left there. But tbh I havent asked. I just spoke to someone at the club on Thuraday and said that if someone from the club didnt move the ashes, I would. They assured me all of the ashes and tributes that are not relevant to the 97 would be moved in time for Wednesday xx

This isn't the nicest tweet to have to write but a necessary one..... The Hillsborough Memorial at Anfield is a special place of remembrance for the 97. It's a place where many of us find comfort and a chance to be still. It's place that many bereaved families now bring our children and grandchildren to educate them and, for children like my own, it is 1 of the very few places that they have to feel close to their grandad. This week, I took 1 of my sons to see the memorialat his request, and whilst reading tributes, he spotted a little glass Hennessy bottle filled with ashes.....he thought it was in some way connected to his Grandad. I then had to explain that the bottle was an alcoholic drink, the ashes were not connected to us, and that many fans and loved ones want to be left at the ground when they pass away..... The point of this tweet is to respectfully ask that people do not leave ashes on the memorial. The memorial is for the 97, and whilst we completely understand and have empathy for those who pass away and their loved 1s, it is somewhat uncomfortable to see it becoming a shrine for ashes. Yesterday, there were over 20 little trinkets full of ashes and yet there are signs asking people not to leave them there. I appreciate that bereaved loved ones will only be honouring the family member lost whose wishes were likely to be that they would like to be left at the ground, but please - not on the memorial. It's not really a conversation any of us should need to explain to our children and grandchildren, and there have been incidents where it has been distressing for some of the family members of the 97. It's also not nice for the club staff who have to remove them. Again, I'm saying this with the utmost empathy, understanding and respect, but the look of horror on my sons face when he thought the Hennessy bottle was in some way connected to our family has driven me to need to address the issue. Thanks so much for understanding. Floral tributes are more than welcome ❤️ #Anfield #HillsboroughMemorial #LFC

Share this far and wide - on here, in your WhatsApp groups, on your social media. No flags and Not A Pound In The Ground is the starting point. If enough people do it, it will send a message to FSG: they got this one wrong. @spiritofshankly and @_lfcsb offered to talk to the ownership again and that offer was ignored. Fans said they wanted to protest. This is the start.

@JayMcKenna87 @TheAnfieldWrap They seem to have their earplugs in. They’re not interested in listening to us. Tickets could rise 3 to £4.50 per game over the next 3 seasons. The problem is that they are too expensive in the first place. So adding to the cost is pushing us out. Which is what they really want

So everyone’s just had the same ‘personal’ from Billy Hogan? I’ve been sat in all of those meetings mentioned, he hasn’t He wants to say that they want the debate grounded in ‘facts’, which implies it isn’t. LFC, what isn’t factual? Here’s an offer Billy - let’s debate it

RETWEET. Football culture is in the North West psyche of many people here, it's why the two biggest clubs are Liverpool & Manchester United. The cities often had a historic rivalry over trade and shipping in the past but all in all the cities have provided the World with musical talent and inventions galore. With all this in mind, I decided to write a play about the those two great Northern cities of Liverpool & Manchester, and how the football rivalry can often get in the way of the North West becoming a joint powerhouse. Sounds slightly political, a bit heavy, nah not really, it's an out and out comedy with a message, and of course music. They loved the play at its initial showing, well now it's back in its purest form and the tickets are here. TXTS: purchase.epsteintheatre.com/EventAvailabil…

Ahead of the 37th anniversary, The Valley observes a period of silence in memory of the 97 supporters who lost their lives in the Hillsborough tragedy.

We’re in real danger of missing out on champions league football, we get embarrassed in the FA cup. We don’t have a clue what to do when we concede possession or a goal. 14 games I think we’ve lost this season. When did that last happen. PSG away Wednesday 🤦

@ScouseRepublic Never known a Liverpool side without the ball look this bad. It’s every game. Too easy to play through. I know he has credit for winning the league, but these players don’t look like they have any fight for him at all.

Had a good go for 30mins. Gave away a daft pen. Team imploded. No character in that team. No character in the dugout. An away end and a team that does not believe. Call it.

Gospel of the Day (John 18,1-40.19,1-42) [...] Aware that everything was now finished, in order that the scripture might be fulfilled, Jesus said, "I thirst." There was a vessel filled with common wine. So they put a sponge soaked in wine on a sprig of hyssop and put it up to his mouth. When Jesus had taken the wine, he said, "It is finished." And bowing his head, he handed over the spirit. Now since it was preparation day, in order that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, for the sabbath day of that week was a solemn one, the Jews asked Pilate that their legs be broken and they be taken down. So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and then of the other one who was crucified with Jesus. But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs, but one soldier thrust his lance into his side, and immediately blood and water flowed out. An eyewitness has testified, and his testimony is true; he knows that he is speaking the truth, so that you also may (come to) believe. For this happened so that the scripture passage might be fulfilled: "Not a bone of it will be broken." And again another passage says: "They will look upon him whom they have pierced." After this, Joseph of Arimathea, secretly a disciple of Jesus for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate if he could remove the body of Jesus. And Pilate permitted it. So he came and took his body. Nicodemus, the one who had first come to him at night, also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes weighing about one hundred pounds. They took the body of Jesus and bound it with burial cloths along with the spices, according to the Jewish burial custom. Now in the place where he had been crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had yet been buried. So they laid Jesus there because of the Jewish preparation day; for the tomb was close by. vaticannews.va/en/word-of-the…

Also it’s interesting they are linking it to inflation in 2026 - in 1994 it was £8 to stand on the Kop in 2026 that would be £17.10 if it had kept in line with inflation 🤷‍♂️

The audacity of you 😱

Gutted Mo Salah is leaving, but maybe it’s the right time. Thanks for so many great memories. @MoSalah you are a legend of this club. One of the best ever to wear the shirt.

Today is Ash Wednesday, have a blessed Lent. Prayer, fasting, almsgiving. #lent #ashwednesday

How many times are we going to concede from set pieces. We’re crap. Too passive. No one wants to tackle. Too easy to play through. Just isn’t good enough is it 😡

As bad as we were in the 1st half. Thought we were boss in the 2nd. Gutted for Bradley

Just how much room do we want to give him. We done the same thing away at Tottenham against 9 men. 8 defenders no midfield 😡😡. What sort of tactics is this. I’m very confused 🫤

15 years ago today I took my daughter @kallieerica to her 1st match. Keeping the family tradition going. It’s been amazing sharing the same type of memories that I have about my dad. Happy match anniversary Kallie it’s boss going the match with you.
