Statement on current situation

Like all supporters we want the right decisions to be made to ensure success for our football club.

The Union is committed, as always, to the view that the position of Liverpool Manager should be supported with all of the resources at the Club’s disposal. It was clear that the rising tide of speculation regarding the position of Roy Hodgson was damaging this position and the Club. Fenway Sports Group have acted decisively to address this and to prevent any further undermining of the position and thus bringing to an end the media frenzy that was enveloping the Club. This has now resulted in renewed optimism and excitement.

There are other pressing matters, such as the appointment of a Chief Executive, decisions on a redeveloped or new Anfield and financing of the Club. All these matters, we hope, will be dealt with in a similar way – behind closed doors –  no longer the long drawn out affairs played out in the full glare of the world’s media as under the previous owners.

Naturally, as supporters with a vested interest, we will be watching carefully to ensure decisions are made properly and important matters are dealt with in the right manner. We currently have a document with FSG and we are awaiting their reply in order to continue engaging with them and ensuring supporters’ voices are heard.

For the time being though, our attention turns to important matters on the pitch. Bring on yer Manchester United….
