Aldo calls on Irish to share Liverpool’s future

THE campaign to make Liverpool the first Premier League club to be owned by its own fans is looking for Irish supporters to get on board, a call enthusiastically backed by former Ireland and Anfield legend John Aldridge.

The supporters’ initiative known as ShareLiverpoolFC has confirmed it now has the required funds to underwrite the costs of organising and delivering a full share issue under the regulations of the UK’s Financial Services Authority.

The aim is for Liverpool to emulate the model of successful European clubs like Bayern Munich, where fans own 80% of the club.
