Stu Averill, a wannabe Scouse/Scot. I remember the good times & have faith in them comin back

Beside the Hillsborough Flame, I heard a Koppite mournin, "Why so many taken on that day?" Justice has never been done. But their memory we'll carry on. There'll be Glory Round The Fields Of Anfield Road

:(  Thank you Rafa, hopefully you will come back one day when we have a fit and proper owner to finish off the job.

Dalglish Jr knows who his money is on after Rafael Benítez hands over cheque

Rafael Benítez commemorated the day on which he was confirmed as the coach of Inter Milan by making a substantial donation to the Hillsborough Family Support Group (HSFG), a week after he vacated the Anfield hot seat that Kenny Dalglish’s son has admitted is coveted by his father.

In a move that will only serve to strengthen his bond with the Liverpool supporters even after his departure, Benítez visited the Anfield base of the HFSG to hand over a cheque for £96,000, the figure being particularly poignant because it represents £1,000 for each of the victims of the Hillsborough disaster 21 years ago.

The money will be used to support the campaign for justice and Margaret Aspinall, the chairman of the HFSG, admitted Benítez’s gesture left her and other members of the group overwhelmed. “It is a fantastic gesture,” Aspinall said. “It was very emotional for everyone, for us and for him.

“He made it clear that he did not want any publicity but we were determined to let the fans know about it because it shows what a special person he is. The fans mean so much to him and I think this was his way of showing that. We can’t thank him enough.”
There is no-one anywhere in the world at any stage who is any bigger or any better than this football club.

Kenny Dalglish 1/2/2011

REST IN PEACE PHIL, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.

Would love to have him back one day. Italy is another manager merry go round so you never know if we have decent owners in a few years they can get him back.

Nothing ot do with loving the club.

He "got it" - he understood the invisible fabric that makes this club truley unique.

Aye, deffo agree with that 100%. Houllier before him was the same. They both let the club into their hearts.

Walk On Rafa Lad    :bowdown
