I'm hungry. Where's the jam?

In January 2008 over 350 Liverpool supporters crammed into The Sandon pub, Anfield, and discussed not only the custodianship of our current owners but the wider issues that affect us as supporters. Issues that have been discussed by fans for decades, issues where almost unanimous desire for change is consistently met by indifference from the club - all these were aired and on a historic and emotional night, 'Spirit Of Shankly', the Liverpool Supporters' Union was born.

Since that date, and following two mass meetings at the Olympia in Liverpool, a volunteer acting committee has been established, the Union has been set up as an Industrial and Provident Society and a set of aims for the short, medium and long term have been established.

The inaugural AGM took place in February 2009 and Liverpool supporters the world over were invited to take part. A Management Committee was elected after the wonderful work done by the volunteer Committee during the first year.

Why should Liverpool supporters join the union? In a nutshell, if we stand together and speak with one voice, regardless of language or accent, we can make a genuine difference to our football club, the city of Liverpool and indeed the wider footballing world.

Constant Aims
To represent the best interests of supporters of Liverpool Football Club.
To hold whoever owns the football club to account.

Short Term Aims
To create long lasting relationships with all aspects of Liverpool FCs supporting community.
To improve the quality of service for Liverpool FCs supporters.
To improve the standard and value of travel arrangements for Liverpool FCs supporters.

Medium Term Aims
To work with any relevant agencies to improve the area of Anfield.
To build links with grassroots supporter groups.

Long Term Aim
To bring about supporter representation at board room level.

Ultimate Aim
Supporter ownership of Liverpool Football Club.

Supporter ownership of Liverpool Football Club is an aim very far off. Would like to see this happen one day though.
