An Open Letter to UEFA

Champions League Final Liverpool FC have reached the Champions League final. Again. In Paris, against Real Madrid. Again. For our fans, it’s another European final jaunt, the climax of the season, the hope of winning again. For some fans anyway.

A case of too little, too late, it also does nothing for the majority of fans involved. Expecting a minimum of 66,000-plus supporters to travel to Wembley from the northwest makes little sense to begin with, but without the availability of train travel it is ridiculous. The FA, according to Network Rail bosses, were [...]

NFT Launch

NFT Launch Liverpool FC today launched an official collection of NFTs. In January, Spirit of Shankly attended a two-hour meeting with the club, as part of the revised approach to open engagement, in order to discuss their plans for this new venture.
