Rush supports SOS Campaign
Liverpool legend Ian Rush has been raising awareness of the SOS Campaign and has taken part in a radio interview broadcasted on Liverpool Football Club Radio Station.


The former Anfield striker met up with Accrington Stanley’s Joint Chair-Person Marcelle Lazarus for a photo opportunity in the week leading up to the Liverpool vs Hull match, where the Stanley Ultras were invited to collect donations in buckets. Speaking about the partnership with Liverpool, Marcelle said “I would like to say a big thank you to everybody at the club for such great support, especially Karen Shrimpton and Kevin Randall who organised the whole event so well and of course Ian Rush for promoting the SOS Campaign”

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

And talking of Ian Rush... whatever happened to the suggestion of a Stanley vs Liverpool Legends match that was mooted a couple of weeks back...?

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

A PHOTO....thats gonna do Stanley the world of good aint it .... PATHETIC

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

This is a joke! Just how difficult is it to arrange a photo opportunity and a radio interview (for Liverpool FC Radio)?

As Doug said, where is the photo?

How much money is this likely to have raised? Did LFC make a contribution to the SOS Fund?

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

Its really all credit to the ultras in all honesty for sorting it & bucket collecting at anfield - nice that they got a thanks :rolleyes:

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

But Did anyone hear..or better still record what Ms.Lazarus had to say on the radio last night...we just may have missed something of profound importance!...
or am I just whistling in the wind again RR ???...

(Alfred.E. and I tried but could't find the frequency !!...er the Radio Frequency that is!!)

'ON STANLEY....ON!!!'

Looks like Marcelle talked him into doing a bit of fund raising for us...

That's great, but isn't that after the HMRC deadline?

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

Yes, but it says that can be used as "evidence of guaranteed income". If we survive, it'll be one helluva a party, on the other hand... :eek:

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

£50 a ticket WTF I have nothing left with all the games coming up and other various events, I would love to go, Rush and Ruddock, I will have to pass on this:(:(:(

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

I'm led to believe that 50 notes is a standard ish price these days bearing in mind top location and banqueting etc. steep price and I hope to go - but we'll have to see. It should be well attended by bigwigs though so even without us lot - the great unwashed it will bring in the pennies.

Ian rush is a friend of a friend on the ASSF and we had been hoping to have him and David Lloyd later on in the season, but this takes priority. We'll try to get it on later in the season though so you can all have some notice to save up :)

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

Ah yeah, I see that advertised on the fishy site and SOS site :rolleyes: :mad:

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

Can I have a refund on my donations then I could go and the SOS would get the money back.

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

As it's been arranged for weeks and nothing publicised I would guess it's an invited audience. Not for peasants :D

Mind you £50 entry and another £50 for a pint, you'll need some serious brass :)

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

And some good guts to stomach it, "thi don't keep a gud pint dayn't Dunk"

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

Yea, maybe this one's just for the 'true fans' :rolleyes:

"Evidence of guaranteed income". I hate to put a dampener on this but I'm afraid it will not wash with a high court judge.

A few issues raised by a barrister I was talking to this evening. What is guaranteed about it? Supposing the event has to be called off? Illness or bad weather? Or staffing or structural problems at the venue immediately before the event? Or an environmental health scare?

Re: Marcelle Lazarus takes a Shot
 

This is also true of all the planned events that fall after the winding up date, there only worth to the club is if we survive.

It simply boils down to this: Stanley will either have the money on the date or it won't. There will be no more excuses - the club pays up or it goes under.
