Oh, art. Hmm. Don't know who's funded them but what a waste of fucking money.

Agreed.

I don't mind public art.

I'd rather see weird quotes like that than adverts telling me to buy stupid shit I don't need.

Agreed, it's a bit weird but better than a fuck off advert for sky

Brian Epstein died for Jesus?

Jesus saves but dalglish nets the rebound...classic.

Makes you shudder how much someone was paid to come up with this flash of genius.

Showing my age - it was St John for me.

Same here. Urban myth was it was actually on a poster on a church somewhere but no one could sat where it was.

It was supposedly on a poster at this church here. The Wesleyan on the corner of Walton Breck and Oakfield.

Off topic,  but someone asked shanks what would he do if god came to liverpool, shanks said he would move st john to inside right!  alan x it was st john your correct.

I always assumed it was at St Michaels on the corner of Adshead Road and Queens Drive.

I remember back in the early 60's before that junction layout got modified, sometimes being taken down that route from West Derby many times by my Dad to get to to my Nans at Kemlyn and that church always had large posters up back then exhorting sinners to repent and be saved or God will have his mighty vengeance, and other variations on that theme.

I suppose without hard evidence, it's likely several churches around the general Anfield vicinity could probably lay claim, and quite possibly, it was a poster modified on more than one of them.

You mean St Andrews?

The story as I recall it was it being on the church by the ground...St Andies is a bit too far away from Anfield.


This is St Andrews from the Adshead Road side.

[The Gulleysucker]

That's the one (it's been a long time...)
Back in the early 60's, it was a short cut route to Anfield from Queens Drive West Derby direction, veer left down Adshead and then onto Maiden lane then left onto Townsend then right onto Walton Breck after Georgesons.
As you approached the church from Queens drive and turned left onto Adshead which you used to be able to do before the junction was re-modelled, the church was then on your right and there were always big 'Jesus' type signs at the front of the building facing out to the junction.

I expect Vic might be the one to know.
