Anyone go? Was away in Northampton yesterday so couldn't make it but keen to hear how the day and match was? Would've been great to see sir Francis again in a rovers shirt  :bscarf:

My brother was playing as a fundraiser so the whole family was there. Great day and was able to mix with all the legends - got some great photos of me with Stocky, Martin Woods (I bought his shirt in the auction afterwards & we joked about his penalty at Newcastle!), Copps, Sir Francis, Greeny….etc as well as the Liverpool legends. Lots of money raised I suspect.

Good game, Liverpool dominated first half and were 3-2 up at HT, then went 4-2 up but after that Donny got on top and won 5-4.

Really great fun day which raised loads of cash for a worthy cause.

I couldn’t go but gave a tenner to a lad who wanted to play. He was trying to raise £600.

Second half, at one stage, there was a midfield of Green, Woods and Copps. Easy to see how we clawed the deficit back! Green is still perpetual motion!

6/5 to Donny. Classic game of two halves. Young & up & coming lad called Coppinger ran the show. Green & Wood were excellent with Jimmy O’Connor tidying up at the back.
I heard the crowd was 4305, with  the players staying around for ages after for photos & autographs. An excellent day.

It was 5-4 Derek to Rovers. You have added a goal to each team.

Charlie Adam, Heskey & Collymore were the 3 notable ones for me.
