LFC Supporters Board Statement

LFC SB - Ticketing update for new Premier League season In line with the contractual agreement, LFC did engage with the Supporters Board regarding its proposed ticket price increases. Whilst they are bound to consider the SB views, such matters are not subject to Fan Consent and therefore LFC retains absolute and final discretion over the determination of such matters. It is they who have decided to impose these price increases. To be clear, the LFC Supporters Board were unanimous in their opposition to any proposed ticket price increases and this remains our position. To [...]

Manchester City allocation

Manchester City allocation Reports in today’s press note a reduced allocation for our game away to Manchester City at the Etihad on Saturday 1 April. In 2019, Liverpool FC’s allocation for this fixture was 3,028. When supporters returned after Covid, this was reduced to 2,880. The reason for the reduction, we were told, was due to missiles being thrown from the home end at away supporters. Rather than reduce tickets in the home section, where the aggravation came from, Manchester City reduced the away allocation. Manchester City are now looking to reduce this further with [...]

Supporters Board

Role of the Supporters Board It is two months since the launch of the Supporters Board and, following some enquiries from members and fans, we wanted to give an update on how it will work to prevent any misunderstanding over its role. Spirit of Shankly and Liverpool FC entered a new era of supporter engagement with the SB that sees fan representation at board level. But this does not mean the SB has a seat on the LFC Board, no supporters sit on that Board. The fan-led SB is a completely separate entity to deal [...]

Supporters Board

Supporters Board Launch Today, Wednesday 17 August 2022, Spirit Of Shankly enters into a new era of fan engagement. One that will bring challenge, opportunity and renewed hope with the potential to define the future and set an example for others to follow. And one, most crucially, that gives us the supporters a fundamental and legally binding role in Liverpool FC’s decision-making processes for the first time in the club’s history. Just over a year ago three days, in April 2021, shook football to its core. The European Super League — an initiative designed to [...]
