I could. But I'd be here for my birthday next November, and I still wouldn't be finished.

On the spot, on the day stuff excellent - thinking of running onto the pitch last Saturday, intro yesterday - long range stuff, or just arranging to get what you want? Hmmmmm........

You're not going to give us anything?

Come on!

It's deadly slow around here and it's hardly like the Norwich game is going to dominate discussion anytime soon (if at all). Gossip gossip gossip!

Will embarrassingly admit to spending most of the game flicking back and forth to see how City were doing. No big deal as Ive seen this Liverpool performance before.
When Kuyt missed that chance is was so nailed on for a draw or loss - which happened, and woodwork - which happened. Only surprise was Foster didnt have the game of his life.

Abject at best from our players, apparently Downing came on but Im not sure. Suarez was again our best player but he is often too greedy and the throwing the hands in the air thing pisses me off. Carroll swings at everything, if he kept calmer he would find the net more.
My grumble will go to the goalie. What the **** was Reina doing for the goal. he showed Odeminge where to put it.

Can wait for the Norwich game.

We got huge amounts out of LFC. The donations went mad whenever they Tweeted or Facebooked us. They gave us almost unlimited access to Anfield on the 12th, put on extra staff, opened the Shankly Gates and so on.

Yesterday, they made sure we got the 'treatment' at half time, George Sephton, Peter McDowall, programme mentions in several of the last few home games. The ticketing left a lot to be desired, but my suspicion is that one of the official sponsors got their hands on all the freebie tickets, leaving us to scramble for about 10-12 tickets. Shouldn't have happened, but then again without LFC's help this Run would never have been the success it was. The back and forth about when we would go on - pre or half time - plus the ticketing should not have been as involved as they were, but there you go.

An interesting tidbit of web analytics. LFCNY web pages - site, forums, Facebook, MP Red - put the LFCNY in the top 10 of referrers to the Hillsborough-Anfield Run website.

^^^ And that's all really good to hear, Sami. Didn't think the club was slacking on any other front but anything involving tickets always seems nightmarish. Probably just as you surmise but still...sponsors hoovering up for West Brom!?

In defence of my kids Ill prove they are not.

BUT I will admit to having a Norwich jersey myself as my sister lives there and bought me one. I cant bring myself to wear it as, cause, well, its not Liverpool and all.

BTW speaking of shirts I thought I saw what looked like someone wearing a new LFC shirt in the crowd yesterday. It looked like a LFC shirt but not one I had perviously seen if you know what I mean - a 70's style shirt with what appeared to be Standard Chartered on it. Anyone know if somehow the new kit has been leaked or folks have got their hands on it?
