All-Star Charity Match
« on: March 5, 2015, 01:15:20 pm »

A unique charity football match to benefit the people of Liverpool will take place at Anfield later this month, which will include two All-Star line-ups of some of Europe's elite players.A unique charity football match to benefit the people of Liverpool will take place at Anfield later this month, which will include two All-Star line-ups of some of Europe's elite players.

The event, which has been organised by Liverpool FC's official charity, the Liverpool FC Foundation, will bring together two teams that will be selected by Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher as some of the most influential players they have played with or against.


Gerrard will take on the role of captain for one team, while Carragher will take on the same role for the other All-Star side. Managers and the final line-up of each All-Star team will be announced in the coming weeks.


Player recruitment is well underway, and players confirmed include Luis Suarez, Fernando Torres, Pepe Reina, Dirk Kuyt, Xabi Alonso, Thierry Henry, John Terry and Didier Drogba, to name a few.


Current Reds first-team players who are not on international duty will also play some part, as well as some of the Academy's brightest stars, plus the club's backroom staff will also be on hand to offer support.

 
Gerrard will leave Liverpool at the end of the season and this special match will give fans the opportunity to see him alongside some of their favourites - all to raise funds for the local community.

Tickets for this exciting event, which will take place on Sunday March 29, 2015, will be priced at £20 for adults, £5 for juniors* and £15 for over 65s. Disabled concessionary prices will also apply.

Proceeds raised will help to fund the Liverpool FC Foundation's community programmes, which benefit thousands of young people and adults throughout the city of Liverpool.

Funds will also support Alder Hey's new Hospital in the Park, as well as providing support packages to Claire House, Positive Futures, Centre 56 and Cash for Kids.

Tickets will initially be available to season ticket holders and LFC members from 1pm on Thursday March 5, with a general sale to follow at 8.15am on Wednesday March 11.

For wheelchair, visually impaired and ambulant disabled tickets, please telephone 0843 170 5555 and select the disability option to speak to one of our advisors.

*Adult/junior tickets are available to purchase at a ratio of 3:1. There will be no booking fee charged for this match.

*Please note that each player's involvement in the game, including the duration of each player's appearance, is subject to players' club approval, international duty obligations and fitness at the time of the match.

Tickets are on sale now. Quicker than usual
It’s not even about individuality, it’s about the team. Our game was based on his controlling of the tempo. Squeeze the life out of the opposition and then strike. That is our game. Like a pack of pythons.

Disappointing us Fan Card Holders have to wait for the General Sale yet again - even for a charity game.


Hope it goes well - and we see some past players from the CL win and those who didn't get a send-off

I'll take my little sister to this one for her first trip to Anfield, so I'm going to have to wait till Wednesday. Hopefully there's still a decent amount of tickets left when this goes to general sale, anyone think this will come close to selling out to season tickets and members?

With 305 being adult/child do people reckon the whole Kop will be seated? I'll probably get lower seats if we can't stand.

It says my fancard/membership thingy will only allow me to purchase one ticket... Its frustrating cos i want to take my mate and her lad to this...

Says my customer number doesnt qualify for a match at this time nor do the two accounts linked to it.

If I've booked two tickets on two different members' cards will I still be able to purchase in the general sale? I assume so given that the general sale is open to everyone.

How will they sell all the single tickets in the A/C blocks? They've taken all the best blocks for A/C and there's loads of single seats left over.

Want to take my wife and brother to this, but even as a Member I can only get one ticket and have to wait until the general sale. What's the point in paying 20 quid a year when I can't even buy more than one ticket? It's not like I don't have to book my travel or anything like that. Think the members card will be getting firmly cancelled in the summer :no

Yeah but that's the point mate? You pay for the membership scheme so you CAN buy tickets ahead of those that don't?
