Worthington Cup Final Ticket Warning - the club have announced
that a couple of hundred tickets for the Cardiff clash with Manchester
United were taken from a postal van in Walton village.
The Club know exactly which tickets have been stolen and can identify
them immediately. They are advising fans not to buy from unofficial
sources. We'd advise anyone offered a ticket whose origin they are unsure
of to check with the Ticket Office.
Any supporter arriving at the Millennium Stadium next month with one
of these stolen tickets will either be refused entry at the turnstiles
or ejected from their seat inside the ground.

A summary of an article in today’s Echo about the new stadium:
The multi million pound Regeneration of North Liverpool project is
about to get under way. The first phase of the £250m project
will involve hundreds of homes being refurbished. In the next few
weeks a detailed planning application from Liverpool Football Club
is expected to be submitted to planning chiefs. The City council will
form a joint venture company with Liverpool Football Club with all
profits being pumped directly back into the local community for further
regeneration work.
The development also includes a village centre, a new shopping centre
at the junction of Oakfield Road and Walton Breck Road, a Health Centre
and internet café and extensive landscaping of the area.
The new Liverpool FC stadium will be built at one end of Stanley
Park. This will house a new Vernon Sangster Community Sports Centre
together with an education centre. The remainder of the park will
be restored and improved with work including the restoration of the
Gladstone Conservatory as a visitors centre and café.
Later the existing stadium site will be redeveloped to create Anfield
Plaza, a new public open space. Park and ride and park and walk schemes
will also be launched and operate on match days. Improvements to the
roads in the area will also take place with additional bus lanes and
an extension of the resident-only parking.
Les Wheatley, director finance at Liverpool FC said that a planning
application should be available by late spring.

The BBC and Hillsborough - a message from the Hillsborough
Justice Campaign:
During the production of the recent film “Bowling For Columbine”,
Michael Moore bought footage of football hooliganism under licence from
the BBC. The footage that was used to illustrate football hooliganism
and violence, in the film, including clips from the Hillsborough Disaster.
The disaster has been the subject of various enquiries in the UK, and
the British Judicial system has consistently found that violence or
hooliganism played no part whatsoever in the disaster. Indeed the major
inquiry into the disaster The Lord Justice Taylor report found that
“The main cause of the Disaster was the breakdown of police control”.
The representation of the disaster in this matter causes much grief
and stress for the bereaved families of the disaster. It should be remembered
that this disaster brought the death of 96 innocent men, woman and children.
