Clearly he was a fan and his boy clearly has some great priorities.

 

You never see things like this about other teams (well, I don't think so anyway). Just another indication of how truly special we are.

Poor little lad.

His Dad was a great player.

[Rory Fitzgerald]

It doesn't sit easy with me this one, LFC just so happens to mentioned in this letter, could be anytime or anything. A young lad lost his Dad, that's all I see but LFC groups are sharing it around social media for clicks.

Yeah, feel the same.

Be nice to get him and his family over for a game if the club could sort something.

Yeah, that would be nice.

 

Liverpool play Burnley on Sunday March 12th at Anfield which is a day after England play Scotland at Twickeham......the fixtures dovetail nicely if they wanted to co-ordinate something.

Yeah, that would be nice.

That's assuming Lincoln beat Burnley. If Burnley win, they've a cup quarter final that weekend.

 

I know as I've tickets for that game

[Leo No.8]

So sad - brought a tear that letter. RIP.

 

The fact that it's Liverpool doesn't matter, but if the club could do something nice for the little lad to help cheer him up a bit, then that would be a good result.

I love that we were a special link between a legend like that and his poor son. 

 

We need to embrace people like this. We are special. We should do something special.

[New York Red]

Got a bit of a response from the club. Let's see what happens.

When i saw the name of the post, i was thinking a European composer

Don't let your ignorance of a great person stop you celebrating his achievements.

 

It's kind of how I feel clicking into the music threads on here.

 

Embrace it.

[whitewidow]

Best scrum half I have had the honour of seeing play

Not sure how this proves anything at all about LFC fans. Seems a bit distasteful for someone to attempt to bask in some imagined reflected glory from it.

some of the fans of any big club would get involved in reflecting, it just happens to be our club, so who cares. Nobody connected to the deceased will be offended.

Yeah - I know f all about Rugby but that's still a moving letter.
