Re: Liverpool Fc Anfield - Reds Supporters Gatherings
Tremendous response from re-registration
Firstly, a big thank-you to everyone who has already been back to the site and re-registered. It’s given us a great start on ensuring we can communicate more effectively with you from here on. If you haven’t re-registered yet, please take a couple of minutes to do it:

A few people have asked why they need to provide more information, and what we’re going to do with it. Well, because buying a share in LFC would be an ‘investment’, we are bound by the financial authorities in each country where Liverpool fans who want to get involved live (and that’s a lot of countries!).
So we need to know where you are, and that you are old enough to be a shareholder – that’s why we asked for date of birth. We know that’s sensitive for some people, so we’ve changed that to ask simply if you are older than 16 years, the minimum age for shareholders in the UK and Europe.
We will only use your information to contact you about ShareLiverpoolFC activities – we will not pass your details to anyone else without your permission. That’s a promise.
We’re all looking forward to the new season, and getting excited by the prospect of new signings. As football fans, how the team performs is our main interest. However, we’re told that any new money available to Rafa is having to be scraped together from player sales, or is more debt against the club. In the end, the current owners will be banking on revenues from us, the fans, to pay all of those debts back and produce a profit for themselves – if they don’t sell the club on to someone else before then.
The only way we can stop the club being treated as a rich man’s plaything is to put the club into the hands of the people who care passionately about it – us, the fans. If we believe this is possible – and it is – it is achievable. But we have to act.
We’re already planning ShareLiverpoolFC activities for the new season, so to keep in touch, make sure you have re-registered on our new site – and catch up with what’s been happening since we started.
‘Return and re-register’
Thanks.
