Saw this on the Guardian website. I had a season ticket at Anfield in 1987/88. For that season only. I saw Barnes week in, week out at his absolute peak. Kenny was managing us.
I have two brothers who both have season tickets. I get to games myself although not at the frequency they do obviously. I've made eight games this season. In twenty years, regardless what happens, they saw Gerrard and Carragher at their peak and Benitez as manager, no matter where they are in the world, they can tell people that.
Oh and by the way, spoke to John Barnes last week in Town before the Barca 0-1 game on Victoria Street (by Revolution on Mathew Street if anyone knows where I'm on about). Bumped into him in the street. (That's what happens when you live in Liverpool. Saw Morientes & Garcia driving on Queens Drive last year and we saw them at traffic lights. With their long hair, we thought they were two gays at first to our shame...)
Asked Barnesy what he thought of our chances, he reckoned we'd win. Well, he was half right.
