Attending a

supporter clubs meeting this afternoon to discuss Saturday's game.
Reduced away allocation, due to the ongoing build. And no truth in the rumour that the stand is closed on Saturday. New turnstile layout though - pics to follow.
🔵 🔵
There is high demand for tickets from Arsenal fans wanting to be at the Emirates 🏟 for tomorrow's match.
There should be 3000
@Everton
fans in the away section.
Let's keep it that way.

Can I kindly request all Liverpool supporters to avoid Anfield Road for the derby this Friday. Please find an alternative route to your stand. This is to avoid congestion in the area as the whole of that stand has been allocated to Everton. Your support is appreciated.
@LFC

Just to reassure supporters at the game this afternoon.
During the 2nd half, there were two males who jumped over the fences into the away stand.
These males were performing a social media stunt and were not in possession of any prohibited articles, both ejected.

Note 📝 to self - Never schedule a tweet on your last day in work before Christmas only for the game to get called off on Christmas Eve. Apologise for any confusion.

Constructive discussions around pitch incursions, pyros & walk up.
Nervous for Sunday, but can't wait for the atmosphere inside the ground and the 3 points at the final whistle.
Up the Toffees.

Off to Villa on Sunday?
FYI - The Witton Arms has undergone a massive refurb is now Home fans only. So no pubs around the ground accept Away fans.
Advice to

A temporary road closure has had to be put on County Road between the junction of Andrew Street and Spellow Lane.

Chelsea supporters coming up to the

match.
The Thomas Frost Pub on County Road is for home fans only.
My suggestion is if you want a 🍺 is to either stay in Liverpool city centre or head to The Arkles Pub (L4 0TJ) and walk across Stanley Park.

Everton fans travelling to Huddersfield please be advised that the weather on route is very bad and there are speed restrictions in place. Leave plenty of time for your trip. Stay safe.

@ToffeeArmy_
Totally agree, got lots of better things to do. It’s halfway through the season, so why are people setting off fireworks outside team hotels?!
Merseyside Police are currently investigating a number supporters for online ticket touting offences.
The investigations follow complaints by fellow

fans who have been either overcharged or sold fraudulent tickets.

FYI The use of pyros both inside and outside the ground is not only illegal, but can also cause health issues through smoke inhalation or injury / damage through heat transfer.

Setting pyros off inside the stadium could result in not only a substantial fine for
